4. DMCA Compliance

Dishpantry is committed to complying with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). If you believe that any Content on Dishpantry has been posted without your permission or that your copyrighted work has been infringed upon, please submit a notice of infringement to the designated copyright agent:

Copyright Agent:
Dishpantry, LLC
Email: [email protected]
Address: 1234 Culinary Blvd, Food City, FL 33101

The notice must include:

• A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf.
• A description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed.
• A description of the location (URL) where the infringing Content resides.
• Contact information (name, address, phone number, and email) for the copyright owner or their agent.

Dishpantry will promptly remove or disable access to the infringing Content upon receiving a valid DMCA takedown notice and will notify the user who posted the Content that it has been removed.

Dishpantry also reserves the right to counter‑notify if it believes the takedown was made in error. The user may then file a counter‑notice with the same details and a statement of good faith belief that the Content was removed or disabled erroneously. Dishpantry will then restore the Content unless the copyright owner files a lawsuit within 10 days of the counter‑notice.

A simple citation such as “Recipe by Dishpantry – dishpantry.com” is appreciated and helps maintain the integrity of our brand and the creators behind the recipes.

If you wish to use any of our Content beyond the permitted uses described above, please contact us at [email protected] to discuss a licensing agreement. Dishpantry is happy to work with authors, publishers, and businesses to provide access to our recipes and images under appropriate terms.
