Copyright & Takedown

How to report a saved pack, where to send notices about beatmap files, and where tournament pools come from.

Last updated

We do not host files

#

packs.haruhime.moe does not host, store, or distribute beatmaps or any other files. Downloads come directly from third-party mirrors to the user's browser, and exports are created on the user's device and stored in places the user controls (their computer, or a torrent they seed).

That means we can't remove files from:

  • Torrents. We don't run a tracker and can't remove a torrent from the swarm.
  • Beatmap mirrors. The service downloads from mirror.hinamizawa.ai, which publishes its own DMCA takedown process at https://mirror.hinamizawa.ai/docs/content-takedowns. Send notices there.
  • osu! Beatmaps listed on osu! can be reported to ppy Pty Ltd.

What we can remove

#

We store saved pack records: a pack name and description, beatmap IDs, and links the user recorded. If you believe a saved pack record infringes your rights, send a notice and we'll remove the record.

Copyright and DMCA

packs doesn't host files. What you can save is pack metadata, a name, description, beatmap IDs and links, never a beatmap file.

Our designated agent for copyright notices is haruhime@haruhime.moe.

A takedown notice should include

  1. your contact information;
  2. the copyrighted work you believe is infringed;
  3. the URL or page the material appears on;
  4. a good-faith statement that the use is not authorized;
  5. a sworn statement that you're the rights holder, or authorized to act for them;
  6. your physical or electronic signature.

A counter-notice should include

  1. your contact information;
  2. the material removed and where it appeared;
  3. a sworn, good-faith statement that it was removed by mistake or misidentification;
  4. your consent to the jurisdiction of your local courts, or haruhime.moe's;
  5. your physical or electronic signature.

Sources

#

Packs owned by haruhime pools are osu! tournament mappools published from pools.haruhime.moe, which credits each pool's sources on the pool's page. A pool there can come from the tournament's hosts, from a community submission, or from another source such as otdb by Sheppsu.
