Copyright & Takedown Policy
Shave Carousel Effective date: July 15, 2026
We respect intellectual-property rights and respond promptly to legitimate removal requests. This policy covers the two kinds of third-party content connected to Shave Carousel.
1. Built-in product catalog
The app ships with a read-only reference catalog of wet-shaving hardware (razor and blade names, specifications, and product photographs) compiled from publicly available retailer and community websites (listed, non-exhaustively, in Attributions). It exists solely to help users identify and log products they own; the app is free and the catalog is not used to sell anything. This removal process applies to ALL catalog content regardless of whether its source is individually identified in the attributions.
Product names and factual specifications are used nominatively. Product photographs remain the property of their respective rights holders.
If you are a rights holder (or authorized agent) and want a photograph or listing removed, email admin@shave-carousel.com with:
- Identification of the work you claim is infringed (e.g., the original photo or page);
- The product name(s) or a screenshot of the catalog entry in question;
- Your name, contact information, and a statement that you are the rights holder or authorized to act for them.
We will acknowledge within 7 days and remove the identified content from the catalog source database promptly. Because the catalog is bundled inside the app binary, removal from users' devices ships with the next app update, which we will expedite for takedown requests.
2. User-uploaded share images (DMCA)
When users enable the optional share-upload feature, their shave photos are hosted on ImgBB via an account we manage. For claims of copyright infringement in such uploaded images, we follow the notice-and-takedown process of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512).
Send a written notice to admin@shave-carousel.com including:
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or authorized agent;
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed;
- The URL(s) of the material to be removed (i.ibb.co links);
- Your contact information (name, address, telephone, email);
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the owner or authorized to act on the owner's behalf.
Upon receiving a valid notice we will remove the identified image promptly. Repeat-infringer uploads will result in removal of all associated content.
Counter-notice: if your uploaded image was removed and you believe the removal was mistaken, you may send a counter-notice with your contact information, identification of the removed material, a statement under penalty of perjury that the removal was the result of mistake or misidentification, and consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your district (or, if outside the U.S., for the districts of Tennessee). We may restore the material in 10-14 business days unless the claimant files a court action.
3. Trademarks
Brand and product names appearing in the app are trademarks of their respective owners, used only to identify the corresponding products. No affiliation or endorsement is implied. Trademark concerns: admin@shave-carousel.com.
