DMCA Copyright Policy

This policy explains how copyright owners and affected users can submit notices concerning material available through Manhwa Webtoon Read.

Effective date: July 22, 2026
Last updated: July 22, 2026

1. Copyright contact

Send copyright notices and counter-notifications by email to [email protected]. This address is for copyright matters only. Privacy, account, or general support questions should use the contact identified in the relevant policy.

2. Copyright infringement notice

If you are a copyright owner or authorized to act for one and believe material available through the service infringes a copyright, send a written notice that includes all of the following:

Your physical or electronic signature.
Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or a representative list if one notice covers multiple works.
Identification of the allegedly infringing material and information reasonably sufficient for us to locate it. Include each exact Manhwa Webtoon Read URL; titles or screenshots alone may be insufficient.
Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on the owner's behalf.

A notice that omits required information may delay our response. We may ask for clarification or supporting documentation before acting.

3. What happens after a notice

We review facially valid notices and may remove or disable access to identified material. We may send the notice, including the claimant's contact information, to the person responsible for the material. We may also preserve relevant records and notify affected service providers or rightsholders.

In appropriate circumstances, we may restrict or terminate access for users who repeatedly infringe copyrights. We may reject abusive, fraudulent, or materially incomplete submissions.

4. Counter-notification

If material you submitted was removed or disabled because of mistake or misidentification, you may send a written counter-notification that includes:

Your physical or electronic signature.
Identification of the material removed or disabled and the location where it appeared before removal.
A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled because of mistake or misidentification.
Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
A statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the United States federal district court for the district where your address is located—or, if your address is outside the United States, a district where the service provider may be found—and accepting service of process from the person who submitted the original notice or that person's agent, as required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(g).

After forwarding a valid counter-notification, we may restore the material no sooner than 10 and no later than 14 business days after receipt unless the original claimant tells us that a court action has been filed seeking to restrain the allegedly infringing activity.

5. Misrepresentation warning

Knowingly making a material misrepresentation in a notice or counter-notification may create liability for damages, costs, and attorneys' fees under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f). Consider fair use, licenses, public-domain status, and other legal limitations before submitting a notice. This page provides process information and is not legal advice.
