DMCA & Copyright Policy

Some context first, because it affects what a takedown can actually do.

Tweet Viewer does not host X's media. When you look up a post, we read publicly available post data, and your browser then fetches the video or image directly from X's own content servers. The files do not pass through us and we do not keep copies. We also only ever read public content — never private, protected or deleted posts.

That means the original copy lives on X. If you want a post removed at source, you must report it to X. What we can do is stop displaying it through our Site and exclude it from our tools, and we will do that on a valid notice.

If you believe material displayed through Tweet Viewer infringes a copyright you own or represent, send a written notice to our designated agent at contact@tweetviewer.com with “DMCA Notice” in the subject line.

To be effective under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), your notice must include substantially all of the following:

1. Your signature — physical or electronic — as the copyright owner or a person authorised to act on the owner's behalf.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed. If several works are involved, a representative list is acceptable.
3. Identification of the material you claim is infringing, with enough information for us to find it — ideally the exact URL on our Site, and the original X post URL.
4. Your contact information: name, mailing address, telephone number and email address.
5. A good-faith statement that the disputed use 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 copyright owner or are authorised to act on the owner's behalf.

Two things worth knowing.

You may not need a formal notice. If you simply want your content excluded from our tools, email contact@tweetviewer.com and ask. We would rather resolve it in a day than run a legal process.

Misrepresentation carries liability. Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), knowingly and materially misrepresenting that material is infringing can make you liable for damages and legal fees. Please consider whether the use may be permitted — for instance as fair use for commentary, criticism, news reporting or research — before filing.

On receiving a notice that substantially complies with the requirements above, we will act expeditiously to remove or disable access to the identified material through our Site, and where appropriate exclude it from our tools going forward.

Where the material was supplied by an identifiable user, we will make a good-faith effort to notify them so they can file a counter-notice. We keep a record of the notices we receive.

Because content displayed here originates from X rather than from uploads to us, in most cases we will review the claim directly and restrict the material where there is any legitimate doubt.

If your material was removed or disabled and you believe that was a mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notification to contact@tweetviewer.com. Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3) it must include substantially the following:

1. Your signature, physical or electronic.
2. Identification of the removed material and the location at which it appeared before removal.
3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
4. Your name, address and telephone number.
5. A consent-to-jurisdiction statement — that you consent to the jurisdiction of the U.S. Federal District Court for the district in which your address is located (or, if outside the United States, any district in which Tweet Viewer may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the party who filed the original notice or their agent.

If we receive a valid counter-notification we may restore the material no sooner than 10 and no later than 14 business days after receipt, unless we first receive notice that the original complainant has filed a court action seeking to restrain the activity.

In accordance with 17 U.S.C. § 512(i), we have adopted a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances, the access or accounts of users who are repeat infringers of copyright. We may also remove material and restrict access at our discretion, with or without notice.

This page covers copyright. For a trademark issue, a privacy concern, a request to exclude your own profile from our viewer, or a report of harassment, email contact@tweetviewer.com and describe the situation — you do not need to frame it as a DMCA notice.

We may update this policy from time to time; material changes are posted here with a revised “Last updated” date.
