EFFECTIVE DATE: September 5, 2026
CLASSIFICATION: PUBLIC / BINDING AGREEMENT
This document dictates the operational boundaries, legal authorities, and liabilities governing the relationship between Kohza Digital Enforcement ("the Bureau", "we", "our") and our clients ("Client", "you"). By commissioning a takedown, initiating a case file, or paying a retainer, you execute a binding agreement under these terms.
By utilizing the Bureau, you grant us express, irrevocable legal authority to act as your authorized agent under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA, 17 U.S.C. § 512) and equivalent international intellectual property statutes (e.g., the EU Copyright Directive, UK CDPA 1988). You authorize our agents to:
Because the DMCA requires sworn statements under federal law, you swear under penalty of perjury that:
WARNING - ANTI-FRAUD PROTOCOL: Fraudulent submissions, falsified evidence, or attempting to weaponize our services for anti-competitive, malicious takedowns of legitimate content will result in immediate termination of service. We will comply with federal subpoenas if you are sued under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f) for misrepresentation.
The Bureau utilizes aggressive, high-leverage tactics to remove stolen content. However, the internet is highly decentralized. We explicitly do not guarantee the permanent removal of content hosted on:
When direct takedowns fail against rogue infrastructure, our operations pivot to Containment: de-indexing the offending URLs from major search engines (Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo) and threatening upstream Tier-1 transit providers to sever the rogue host's connection.
Under the DMCA, the target of a takedown has the legal right to submit a Counter-Notice. If a valid Counter-Notice is received, the hosting provider is legally obligated to restore the stolen content within 10 to 14 business days.
The Bureau is an enforcement agency, not a law firm. We cannot file federal lawsuits on your behalf. If a target successfully counter-notices, maintaining the takedown requires initiating formal litigation in federal court. In such scenarios, we will close the tactical operation and securely transfer your compiled evidentiary dossier to your retained legal counsel.
Operations are initiated only upon the clearance of agreed retainers or invoice payments. Because our work involves immediate tactical execution, labor, and digital footprint analysis, all retainers and takedown fees are strictly non-refundable once an operation has commenced, regardless of the ultimate success of the takedown against rogue platforms.
You agree to fully indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Kohza Digital Enforcement, its agents, directors, and subsidiaries against any and all claims, damages, liabilities, lawsuits (including 512(f) misrepresentation claims), and legal fees arising from the takedown operations we execute on your behalf, based on the evidence and claims you provided to us.
In no event shall the Bureau be liable for any indirect, consequential, punitive, or special damages, including lost profits, reputational damage, or data loss arising from the failure to remove specific content, the filing of counter-notices by third parties, or the proliferation of stolen content across peer-to-peer networks. Our absolute maximum aggregate liability shall not exceed the total fees paid by you to the Bureau in the three (3) months preceding the inciting incident.
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any legal action or proceeding related to our operations shall be instituted exclusively in a state or federal court in Delaware.
