DMCA and Copyright Policy

Last updated: 8 October 2026

Journals Prompt respects the intellectual property of others and expects the same from everyone who uses this site. This page explains how to report copyright infringement and how we handle those reports.

Our content

The prompts, articles, design and other original material on this site belong to Journals Prompt or its authors unless a page says otherwise.

  • You may: copy prompts for your own personal journaling, and quote a short excerpt with a clear link back to the original page.
  • Please don’t: republish our articles or full prompt collections, or copy them to another site, app, book or product, without written permission.

If you believe material on this site infringes your copyright, email our copyright contact at [copyright@journalsprompt.com] with a notice that includes all of the following:

  1. Your physical or electronic signature (a typed full name is fine).
  2. A description of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed.
  3. The exact web address (URL) of the material on our site that you want removed or disabled.
  4. Your name, mailing address, telephone number and email address.
  5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law.
  6. A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on the owner’s behalf.

Notices that are missing these details may not be actionable. You can also use our Contact page and choose “Copyright (DMCA) notice”.

What happens next

We review complete notices promptly, usually within [5 business days]. If a notice appears valid, we may remove or disable access to the material and tell the person who published it. We may share a copy of your notice, including your contact details, with that person.

Counter-notice

If you believe material was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice to the same email address that includes:

  1. Your physical or electronic signature.
  2. A description of the removed material and where it appeared before removal.
  3. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed because of a mistake or misidentification.
  4. Your name, address and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for your address (or, if outside the United States, any judicial district where we can be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who sent the original notice.

If we receive a valid counter-notice, we may restore the material in [10 to 14 business days] unless the original sender tells us they have filed a court action.

False claims

Under U.S. law (17 U.S.C. § 512(f)), a person who knowingly and materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or was removed by mistake, may be liable for damages. Please make sure your claim is valid before you send it. If you aren’t sure, consider speaking to a lawyer.

Repeat infringers

In appropriate circumstances, we will limit or end access for users or contributors who repeatedly infringe copyright.

If you think one of our prompts copies your work but you aren’t sure how to proceed, write to us at the same address. We would rather fix a problem quickly than argue about it.
