DMCA & Copyright Policy

Luxa respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects the people who use this Site to do the same. This page explains how our tools work in relation to third-party content, and how to contact us about a copyright concern.

How our tools handle content

Almost every tool on this Site runs entirely inside your browser. Files you open in our image, audio, PDF, archive and font tools are processed locally on your own device using WebAssembly. They are never uploaded to us, never stored on our servers, and never transmitted anywhere.

Our video link tool works differently in one respect and identically in another. When you paste a page address, our server asks the originating platform which media addresses that page publishes, and returns those addresses to your browser. We do not download the media, we do not store it, we do not re-encode it, and we do not proxy or serve it. Any file you subsequently retrieve travels directly between your browser and the originating platform's own servers, exactly as it would if you played the video on that platform.

The practical consequence is that Luxa hosts no user content and no third-party media of any kind. We have no library, no index, no cache and no archive. There is nothing on our servers for us to remove.

We do not circumvent technical protection measures

Our tools are not designed to defeat digital rights management, decrypt protected content, bypass paywalls, or access material that requires an account we do not have. We do not accept, store or use login credentials, session cookies or authentication tokens for any third-party platform. Content that is private, age-restricted, subscriber-only, purchased, password-protected or otherwise gated cannot be reached through this Site, and that is a deliberate design decision rather than a limitation we intend to remove.

Where a copyright notice should be sent

If material you own is being hosted or distributed without your permission, the effective place to send a takedown notice is the platform actually hosting it — YouTube, Meta, TikTok, Reddit, or whichever service the file resides on. Because we host nothing, a notice sent to us cannot cause the material to be removed from the internet, and we have no technical ability to make it unavailable at its source.

We say this to be useful rather than to deflect. If you believe our Site is nevertheless involved in an infringement of your rights, we want to hear from you and we will act on it.

Submitting a notice to us

Send copyright notices to [email protected], or through our contact form. To let us act quickly, please include all of the following:

  • A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner, or of a person authorised to act on their behalf.
  • Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed. Where several works are covered by a single notice, a representative list is sufficient.
  • Identification of the material you claim is infringing, together with enough information for us to locate it — a specific URL on this Site is by far the most useful form.
  • Your contact details: name, postal address, telephone number and email address.
  • A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use complained of is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  • A statement that the information in your notice is accurate, and — under penalty of perjury — that you are the copyright owner or are authorised to act on their behalf.

We aim to acknowledge every properly submitted notice within five business days. Please be aware that submitting a knowingly false or bad-faith notice may expose you to liability for damages, including costs and legal fees.

Counter-notification

If content of yours was removed from this Site and you believe that removal was the result of a mistake or a misidentification, you may send a counter-notice to the same address. Include your signature, identification of the material and where it appeared before removal, a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed by mistake or misidentification, your contact details, and your consent to the jurisdiction of a court of competent jurisdiction in the place of your address.

Repeat infringers

We terminate access for anyone who repeatedly uses this Site in connection with infringement of intellectual property rights, and we may block access at any time and without notice where we consider the Site is being used unlawfully. Our Acceptable Use Policy sets out what is and is not permitted.

Trade marks and other rights

Platform names, logos and trade marks referenced on this Site belong to their respective owners and are used only to describe compatibility. Their use here does not imply any affiliation with, sponsorship by, or endorsement from those platforms. If you believe a reference to your mark is misleading, contact us at [email protected] and we will review it.
