Read this first: we do not host any files

LewdPub does not store game files. Not on our servers, not in our own storage, nowhere. What we have is a listing — a title, a description, screenshots, a version number, and links.

Those links point to file hosts we have nothing to do with: Mega, Pixeldrain, Workupload, Datanodes, and similar. We did not upload the file, we cannot see inside those accounts, and we cannot delete anything from them.

This matters for what you are about to ask us to do:

• We can remove the listing and the links from LewdPub. We will, on a valid notice, and we do not drag our feet.
• We cannot delete the file itself. Only the host can do that. If you want the file gone from the internet — not just from our index — you have to send a notice to the host as well. Removing our listing does not remove the file.

Send us the notice anyway. We will take our listing down. But if that is the only notice you send, the file stays up somewhere else, and you will be back here in a month over a mirror.

How to send a takedown notice

Email [email protected]. Put "DMCA" in the subject line so it does not get lost in the pile.

Your notice needs to contain all of the following. If something is missing we will have to come back and ask, and that wastes both our time:

1. What work is being infringed. Name the game. If you are complaining about more than one, list them.
2. Where it is on our site. Give us the actual LewdPub URLs — https://lewdpub.com/game/.... "Search my game's name on your site" is not enough. We need the links you want dead.
3. Proof you are entitled to complain. Tell us you are the copyright owner, or that you are authorised to act for them, and who they are. A link to your Patreon, Itch, Steam or official page helps a lot.
4. How to reach you. A name, an email address, and a postal address. We are not going to publish it, but a notice with no way to reply is not a notice.
5. A good-faith statement — that you believe in good faith that the use complained of is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
6. A statement of accuracy — that the information in the notice is accurate, and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the owner or authorised to act on the owner's behalf.
7. Your signature. Typing your full name at the bottom is fine.

What happens next

We read every notice. If it is valid, we take the listing down — usually within 72 hours, often the same day. We will email you to confirm once it is done.

We will also tell the person who posted it that it was removed, and why, and we keep a record of it. Accounts that keep getting valid notices filed against them lose access.

If we think a notice is bogus — someone trying to bury a competitor, or claiming a game they had nothing to do with — we will ask questions before we act.

If we took down something that was yours to post

Mistakes happen. If your listing was removed and you believe it was wrong — you are the developer, or the game is free and you had permission to share it — email us with:

• What was removed, and where it was.
• Why you believe the removal was a mistake.
• Your name, email, and postal address.
• A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of a mistake or misidentification.

We will look at it properly and put it back if you are right.

Developers: talk to us

If you make adult games and you have found your work here, you do not have to lead with a legal threat. Email us and say so. We will pull it, no argument, no forms.

And if you would rather it stayed but done properly — pointing at your own itch.io or Patreon page instead of a mirror, with your links and your name on it — we would honestly prefer that. Say the word and we will fix the listing instead of deleting it.

Do not abuse this

Filing a false takedown notice is not a harmless move. In the US, knowingly misrepresenting that material is infringing makes you liable for damages and legal costs under Section 512(f) of the DMCA. Do not send one for a game you did not make.
