Rights

Report an alleged infringement.

Are you a rights holder or authorised agent, and does a release distributed through Crystal Distribution contain music, artwork or a name that infringes your rights? Report it here. You'll receive a reference number straight away; a staff member reviews the notice, and the other party receives the relevant content without your contact details.

Only used for correspondence about this notice; never shared with the other party.
Paste the link to the release in a store, or to the Crystal Distribution smart link or music page.
Which work, which passage, and why you believe there's no permission.
Links only; don't send identity documents.

Misuse of this channel (knowingly false notices) may have consequences. Notices are limited to a few per hour per sender.

How we handle a notice

  1. You'll receive a reference number straight away. We register an incomplete notice along with what's missing.
  2. A staff member checks completeness, urgency and who should handle it.
  3. The other party receives the relevant complaint without your personal details and is given the opportunity to respond.
  4. An interim measure and the final decision are separate decisions, each with a justification and a clear scope.
  5. A decision can be appealed; a different reviewer handles the appeal. Earlier decisions are never deleted.

This is Crystal Distribution's own reporting channel. You'll receive a reference number; keep it for any contact about your notice. We'll publish the time frames within which we respond here once they've been set. The US DMCA procedure does not apply here.
