Your writing

You retain your rights in your original contributions. By submitting writing, you give Fold permission to store and display it as needed to run your game. Public display requires the publication choices described in our privacy policy. Share only material you created, have permission to use, or may lawfully use.

Report a copyright concern

Email support@foldandpass.com with “Copyright report” in the subject. You do not need a Fold account. Please include:

• Your physical or electronic signature, and whether you own the rights or represent the owner.
• The copyrighted work you believe was infringed, or a representative list of works.
• The exact Fold story link and enough detail to locate the disputed material. For a private story, identify the room and story without sharing passwords or invitation codes.
• Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address so we can contact you.
• A statement that you believe in good faith that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, their agent, or the law.
• A statement that the report is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, you are authorized to act for the owner of the exclusive right involved.

We review reports and act promptly when removal or restricted access is appropriate. We may request missing information and notify the affected writer. Report information may be shared with that writer as needed to handle the dispute; do not include unrelated sensitive information.

If your writing was removed

Contact support if you believe removal was a mistake. For a formal DMCA counter-notification, include your signature; the removed material and its former location; a statement under penalty of perjury that you believe removal resulted from mistake or misidentification; and your name, address and telephone number. You must also consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your address (or, outside the United States, a district where the service provider may be found), and accept service of process from the person who sent the notice or their agent.

A formal counter-notification has legal consequences and is forwarded to the claimant. Consider legal advice before sending one. Where the DMCA counter-notification procedure applies, restoration is generally between 10 and 14 business days after receipt of a valid counter-notification, unless the claimant gives notice of a filed court action seeking to restrain the disputed activity. Other community-rule violations can independently prevent restoration.

Repeat infringement

Fold’s policy is to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, accounts of repeat copyright infringers. We may restrict access while investigating. We consider relevant notices, retractions, counter-notifications and other information; an unsupported accusation alone does not establish infringement.
