What is DMCA?
- DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) protects creators from others stealing or copying their work.
- Roblox enforces DMCA to ensure fair use of assets, such as clothing, models, and other creations.
Filing a DMCA Takedown Request
If someone copies your work without permission:
- Go to the Roblox DMCA Page here
- Fill out the form with your personal info, a description of the stolen asset, and proof of ownership.
- Submit the request for Roblox to review.
Proof of Ownership
Provide evidence like:
- Screenshots of your design in progress.
- File creation dates.
- Links to your original work in the Roblox catalog.
What Happens Next?
Roblox reviews the claim:
- If valid, the copied item is removed.
- The uploader may face warnings or account penalties.
What if Someone Files Against You?
If you receive a takedown notice:
- Check if it’s valid. If not, you can file a counter-notice to prove your case.
- Don’t panic—review your designs to ensure originality.
Preventing DMCA Issues
- Always create original designs or use assets you have permission for.
- If you appear to be stealing someone's clothes, you are more likely to be DMCA filed.
Pro Tip: DMCA protects your creativity, but it’s essential to play fair. Respect others' work, and always back up your own with proof!
