DMCA Policy

Overview

Graff Technologies LLC ("3DPrintMe") respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (17 U.S.C. § 512) ("DMCA"), we have designated a DMCA agent and will respond to valid notices of claimed copyright infringement by removing or disabling access to the allegedly infringing content. Compliance with this policy is a condition of using the Platform.

DMCA Agent

Notices must be submitted in writing to our designated agent. Notices that do not comply with all statutory requirements may be disregarded.

Filing a DMCA Takedown Notice

If you believe content on 3DPrintMe infringes your copyright, you or your authorized agent must provide a written notice to our DMCA agent containing all of the following elements (17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)):

1. Your physical or electronic signature as the copyright owner or an agent authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work(s) claimed to have been infringed, or if multiple works are covered by a single notice, a representative list of such works.
3. Identification of the allegedly infringing material and information reasonably sufficient to allow us to locate it on the Platform (e.g., the full URL of the listing or page).
4. Your contact information: name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
5. A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
6. A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright that is allegedly infringed.

Upon receipt of a complete and valid notice, we will expeditiously remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material and notify the Seller of the takedown.

Warning: Submitting a false DMCA notice is a crime and may subject you to civil liability for damages (17 U.S.C. § 512(f)). If you are not certain whether material infringes your copyright, consult an attorney before filing a notice.

Counter-Notice

If your content was removed in response to a DMCA takedown notice and you believe the removal was the result of a mistake or misidentification of the material, you may file a counter-notice. Your counter-notice must be submitted in writing to our DMCA agent and must contain all of the following (17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3)):

1. Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the material that has been removed and the location where it appeared before removal (e.g., the URL of the listing).
3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
4. Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
5. A statement consenting to jurisdiction in the U.S. federal district court for your address (or, if outside the United States, any judicial district in which Graff Technologies LLC may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the party who submitted the original takedown notice.

Restoration timing: Upon receipt of a valid counter-notice, we will forward it to the original complainant. If the complainant does not notify us within 10–14 business days that they have filed a court action to restrain the allegedly infringing activity, we will restore the removed material. We cannot restore content sooner than this statutory waiting period.

Repeat Infringers

Pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 512(i), it is our policy to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are repeat infringers of intellectual property rights. We will terminate sellers who receive multiple valid DMCA takedown notices and who do not cure the infringement. We track all valid takedown notices per account and may suspend accounts following a first confirmed infringement in egregious cases.

STL Files & 3D Models — Special Notice

Sellers must own or hold valid, current licenses for any STL files, CAD models, or design files they use to produce and sell items on the Platform. The following activities are expressly prohibited and will result in immediate listing removal, account suspension, and potential legal referral:

• Printing and selling copyrighted characters (e.g., licensed entertainment IP, game miniatures) without a license from the rights holder.
• Reproducing logos, trademarks, or brand identifiers on printed items without authorization.
• Using STL files obtained from third-party sites (e.g., Thingiverse, MyMiniFactory) that are licensed for personal, non-commercial use only.
• Printing items covered by active design patents without a license.

If you are unsure whether your design is cleared for commercial sale, do not list it until you have confirmed the IP status with the rights holder or your legal counsel.
