This page explains how to notify us about material on snap-chatplanetorder.com that you believe infringes your copyright, what happens after you send a notice, how to respond if your content was removed in error, and how repeat infringement is handled.
We take copyright seriously. If something here should not be here, we would rather you tell us and we fix it quickly than have the matter escalate for want of a short email.

Our Position on Copyright
The site at snap-chatplanetorder.com is an independent guide and information resource. We publish written explanations, troubleshooting material, and illustrations created for our own pages.
What We Do Not Claim
We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Snap Inc., its subsidiaries, or its partners. All trademarks, product names, logos, and brand names referenced here belong to their respective owners and are used descriptively only.
Respect for Rights Holders
We do not encourage or endorse infringing anyone’s rights. Where our pages reference material owned by others, the intention is commentary, instruction, and identification of the subject, not appropriation of anyone’s work.
If we have got that balance wrong on a particular page, the process below is how you tell us, and we would rather hear it directly than through an intermediary.
How to Submit a Copyright Notice
If you own rights to material you believe appears on this site without authorisation, or are authorised to act for the owner, send a written notice to:
Written notices may also be sent to our postal address, though email is considerably faster.
4000 W Dimond Blvd
Anchorage, Alaska 99502
United States
Phone: (907) 336-1406
What Your Notice Must Include
To let us act quickly, your notice needs all of the following. A notice missing key elements slows everything down, because our first response then has to be a request for what is missing.
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 one notice, a representative list is sufficient.
Identification of the material you say is infringing, described precisely enough for us to locate it. The exact URL on this site is by far the most useful thing you can give us. “Somewhere on your site” is not enough for us to act on.
Your contact information, including a mailing address, telephone number, and an email address at which you can be reached.
A statement that you have a good faith belief the disputed use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or are authorised to act on the owner’s behalf.
Practical Advice on Sending a Notice
Send the notice from an address we can reply to. Include the URL rather than a page title. If the material appears on more than one page, list each one. If you are acting for a rights holder, say who you act for and in what capacity.
Complete notices are usually resolved within a couple of days. Vague notices can take weeks, entirely because of the back and forth needed to establish what is actually being complained about.
What Happens After We Receive a Notice
Copyright notices are treated as priority correspondence and move to the front of the queue.
Acknowledgement
We acknowledge receipt so you know the notice arrived and is being dealt with rather than sitting unread.
Review
We check that the notice contains the required elements and identify the material referred to. This is a procedural check on completeness, not a judgment on the merits of your claim.
Action
Where a notice is valid and complete, we remove or disable access to the identified material expeditiously. We do not require a court order first, and we do not argue the point before acting.
Notification
We keep a record of the notice and the action taken, and where the material was contributed by an identifiable party, we notify them that it has been removed and provide a copy of the notice.
Counter-Notification
If your material was removed and you believe that was a mistake or a misidentification, you can submit a counter-notification.
What a Counter-Notice Must Include
Your physical or electronic signature.
Identification of the material that was removed and the location where it appeared before removal.
A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
Your name, address, and telephone number, together with a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the district in which your address is located, or, if your address is outside the United States, any judicial district in which we may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the party who submitted the original notice or their agent.
What Happens Next
We forward your counter-notification to the party who submitted the original complaint. If they do not notify us within ten business days that they have filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the activity, we may restore the material, generally between ten and fourteen business days after receiving your counter-notice.
Send counter-notifications to [email protected].
Screenshots, Images and Illustrations
Screenshots and images used here illustrate the interfaces and behaviour described in our guides.
Where an image depicts software or an app interface, the underlying rights remain with the owner of that software. Our use is illustration in aid of explanation and is limited to what is needed to make a point comprehensible.
Planet illustrations and graphics created for this site are our own work. If you believe one of our images reproduces something of yours, tell us which page and which image, and we will handle it through the process set out above. Removal is not the only outcome available, and in many cases a credit line or a replacement is the right answer.
Trademark and Brand Concerns
Copyright and trademark are different things, and they are handled differently.
When to Raise a Trademark Concern
If you own a trademark and believe it is being used on this site in a way that suggests affiliation, endorsement, or sponsorship you have not given, write to us and explain the specific use and why it concerns you.
How We Use Brand Names
We reference product and company names descriptively, to identify what a guide is about. We do not present ourselves as an official source, and every substantive page carries a statement of non-affiliation for exactly that reason. Our own logo and brand assets were created independently and are not derived from anyone else’s marks.
Resolution
Most trademark concerns are resolved by adjusting wording, strengthening a disclaimer, or changing how a name appears in a heading. We are willing to make those changes without argument where a concern is reasonable.
Personal Information in Content
If a page here includes a screenshot or example containing a username, display name, or other personal detail belonging to you, tell us and we will remove or obscure it.
You do not need to assert copyright to make that request and you will not be asked to justify it. We anonymise examples as a matter of practice, but things slip through, and a short email is all it takes to fix one.
Misuse of This Process
The takedown process exists to protect rights holders, not to remove inconvenient content.
Notices Made in Bad Faith
Under applicable law, a person who knowingly and materially misrepresents that material is infringing may be liable for damages, including costs and legal fees, incurred by the alleged infringer and by us.
We are willing to comply promptly with valid notices and equally willing to resist plainly abusive notices. Before sending one, satisfy yourself that you hold the rights you are asserting and that the use you are complaining about is genuinely unauthorized rather than merely unwelcome.
Fair Use
Some uses of copyrighted material are permitted without permission, including commentary, criticism, reporting, teaching, and research. If you are unsure whether a use here falls within those boundaries, we are happy to discuss it in an ordinary email before anyone files anything formal.
Repeat Infringers
We maintain a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances, the access of anyone who is a repeat infringer.
Where a party repeatedly submits material that becomes the subject of valid takedown notices, we withdraw their ability to contribute further and remove existing contributions where appropriate. This is applied to the facts of each case rather than by an automatic counter, because a mechanical rule would be easy to abuse.
Our Record-Keeping
We keep a record of every copyright notice we receive, the material it concerns, what action we took, and when.
Those records exist so we can apply our repeat infringer policy consistently, respond accurately if a matter is revisited later, and demonstrate what was done and when. They are retained no longer than needed for those purposes and are not used for anything else.
Reporting Other Concerns
Copyright is not the only reason to write to us about a page.
If you believe content here is inaccurate, unsafe, misleading, or infringes a right other than copyright, use the same address and describe the problem. We would rather deal with a concern as correspondence than have it become a dispute.
Contact for Copyright Matters
All copyright notices, counter-notifications, and related correspondence go to:
4000 W Dimond Blvd
Anchorage, Alaska 99502
United States
Phone: (907) 336-1406
Copyright correspondence is acknowledged within one to two business days, and valid notices are acted on promptly after that.
