iptvirelandmax respects intellectual property and acts promptly on valid complaints. This page sets out how to notify us of allegedly infringing material and what we do when we receive a notice.
Last updated: 9 August 2026
1. The law we operate under
We are established in Ireland, so copyright complaints to us are handled under the Copyright and Related Rights Act 2000 and the hosting and intermediary provisions of the European Communities (Directive 2000/31/EC) Regulations 2003, S.I. No. 68/2003, alongside the EU Digital Services Act framework.
The United States DMCA is the best-known international equivalent, and many rights holders send DMCA-format notices out of habit. We accept notices in that format, and we treat them under Irish and EU law. The page keeps the familiar “DMCA” address for that reason. The US DMCA itself is not the governing instrument here.
2. Our role
We are an access and technology provider, not a broadcaster. We do not host, produce, upload or control the content delivered through upstream sources. Where we are notified of specific infringing material that is within our control, we act expeditiously to remove it or disable access to it.
3. What a valid notice must contain
So that we can act quickly, please include all of the following. An incomplete notice slows everything down.
- Your name and, where you act for someone else, the name of the rights holder you represent.
- A clear description of the copyright work you say is being infringed, with proof of ownership or of your authority to act.
- The exact identification of the allegedly infringing material, such as the precise channel name, stream identifier, catalogue title or URL. A general statement that “your service carries our content” is not enough for us to act on.
- The territory in which you hold the rights, and the dates concerned.
- A statement that you believe in good faith that the use complained of is not authorised by the rights holder, its agent, or the law.
- A statement that the information in the notice is accurate, and that you are the rights holder or authorised to act on their behalf.
- Your electronic signature, meaning your full name typed as a signature, and the date.
Please note that a knowingly false or misleading notice may expose you to liability for the resulting loss.
4. How to send it
Submit your notice through our Telegram support channel, marking the first message “COPYRIGHT NOTICE” so it is routed straight to the right team. We do not operate an email address, so Telegram is the correct and fastest route for a rapid, direct response.
5. What we do next
- We acknowledge receipt of the notice.
- We review it against the requirements in section 3 and ask for anything missing.
- Where the notice is valid and the material is within our control, we remove or disable access to it expeditiously.
- We record the notice and the action taken.
6. Counter-notice
If access to material was removed or disabled and you believe that was a mistake or a misidentification, you may send us a counter-notice on the same channel. Please include your name and contact details, the material affected, the reason you believe the removal was wrong, and a statement that the information is accurate. We will review it and restore access where the counter-notice is well founded.
7. Repeat infringers
We terminate the accounts of users who are repeat infringers, and we end relationships with upstream suppliers who repeatedly provide infringing material.
8. Provider details
Our service-provider identification details, as required by S.I. No. 68/2003, are published on our Disclaimer page.
