Copyright & Trademarks

Ownership and permitted content

TapsMaps original software, design and original content are protected by applicable law. Third-party marks, restaurant names, logos, images and source materials remain their respective owners’ property. Display of factual venue information does not create proprietary TapsMaps authorship of those facts or imply endorsement. Upload only content you have rights to use. Open-data and open-source license obligations remain applicable.

Copyright notice workflow

Use Copyright Report to identify the copyright owner and work, the allegedly infringing material and its TapsMaps URL, your contact information, a good-faith belief that the use is unauthorized, an accuracy/authority statement under penalty of perjury, and your physical or electronic signature. Do not include unnecessary identity documents. Reports are private and reviewed by authorized administrators; proportionate verification or additional details may be required. The operator must monitor and respond to notices promptly under applicable law.

DMCA agent and counter-notices — legal review required

No registered DMCA agent is asserted. Agent details must be completed after actual U.S. Copyright Office registration; the operator must not claim a DMCA safe harbor based solely on this page.

If material is removed, request the applicable counter-notice instructions through Contact. Where U.S. law applies, a counter-notice generally identifies removed material and its former location, includes signature and contact information, a statement under penalty of perjury of a good-faith belief in mistake/misidentification, and required consent to federal jurisdiction and service. Restoration and notice handling must follow applicable statutory conditions and deadlines, including any court action; restoration is not automatic. Knowingly false notices/counter-notices can create liability. Counsel must approve the agent, notice, counter-notice, forwarding, repeat-infringer and restoration process.
