What is the DMCA, and how does it affect Artswikipedia?

The DMCA, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, was signed into law in 1998 in an attempt to address Copyright protection in the Digital Age.


Artswiklipedia is a DMCA compliant operation. This means that when we receive valid takedown notices from © or TM owners we act accordingly, and remove any infringing models brought to our attention.

That said, because of how the DMCA Safe Harbor provision works, and because of the realities any large open marketplace, we do not pro-actively police TM infringement to any degree that artswikipedia might guarantee that any particular model is not infringing. We can only work in a responsive mode. The burden to not infringe falls to Artswikipedia's vendors, the individuals who create these assets and place them for sale on our site.
