DMCA & Copyright
Compliance Policy
BookVerse is an independent indexing search engine dedicated to respecting intellectual property rights and maintaining 100% legal digital discovery.
Zero Host Storage Architecture
BookVerse does not host, store, upload, or transmit any copyrighted digital book files, EPUBs, PDFs, or media documents on our servers. All search results and availability badges are dynamically generated links pointing directly to independent third-party repositories including Project Gutenberg, Internet Archive, Open Library, and Google Books.
1. Policy Overview
In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the "DMCA"), BookVerse responds promptly to formal infringement notices regarding content indexed through our search portal. If you believe that your copyrighted work has been indexed in a manner that constitutes copyright infringement, you may submit a formal notification of claimed infringement.
2. Submitting a DMCA Takedown Notice
To file a legitimate DMCA takedown request with BookVerse, please provide our designated copyright agent with a written communication containing the following statutory information:
- 1A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
- 2Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works.
- 3Identification of the specific BookVerse search URL or indexing link claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity, with enough detail that we may locate the exact reference.
- 4Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address.
- 5A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- 6A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
3. Third-Party Repository Notice
Please note that because BookVerse acts solely as an indexing search interface, removing a link from our directory does not remove the underlying file from third-party servers (such as Internet Archive or Open Library). To achieve permanent removal of files, copyright owners must submit takedown requests directly to the original hosting platforms. Once removed from the host repository, our automated indexers will naturally drop the reference.
