Copyright Policy
Effective October 19, 2026
We respect intellectual property and expect collectors to do the same. Upload only photos you took yourself. This policy follows the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and is part of our Terms of Service.
Reporting infringement
If you believe content on Crowd Comp infringes your copyright, send our designated agent a notice that includes:
1.
Your physical or electronic signature.
2.
The copyrighted work you say is infringed.
3.
The content you want removed, with its link on Crowd Comp (for example the card page).
4.
Your name, address, phone number and email.
5.
A statement that you believe in good faith the use isn't authorized by the owner, its agent or the law.
6.
A statement, under penalty of perjury, that your notice is accurate and that you are the owner or authorized to act for the owner.
Knowingly false claims can make you liable for damages under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f).
Designated agent
Crowd Comp LLC, Attn: Copyright Agent, 28262 Diehl Road, Unit 362, Warrenville, IL 60555. Phone: (660) 415-5224. Email: copyright@crowdcomps.com. Registered with the US Copyright Office (DMCA-1082604).
What happens next
We remove or disable the content promptly and let the collector who posted it know, with a copy of the notice (your contact details may be included).
Counter-notice
If your content was removed and you believe it was a mistake or you have permission, send our agent a counter-notice with:
1.
Your physical or electronic signature.
2.
The content removed and where it appeared.
3.
A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you believe in good faith it was removed by mistake or misidentification.
4.
Your name, address and phone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for your address (or, outside the US, any district where Crowd Comp may be found), and that you will accept service from the person who sent the original notice.
We'll send it to the person who filed the notice. Unless they tell us within 10 business days that they've filed a court action, we may restore the content 10 to 14 business days after we receive your counter-notice.
Repeat infringers
We close the accounts of collectors who repeatedly infringe. An account will be considered for closing after two valid copyright notices about its content within any 12 months, unless there are exceptional circumstances. People at Crowd Comp review each case.
Trademarks and other complaints
Crowd Comp uses grader, card maker and game names only to describe cards, grades and sales, and isn't affiliated with them. Trademark and other non-copyright complaints aren't handled under the DMCA process above (including counter-notices and restoring content). To report one, email copyright@crowdcomps.com with the mark or right involved, the content you're concerned about and its link, and we'll review it.
