DMCA & Copyright

ControlsList respects the people and companies that own the documents we catalog. This page explains how to flag a copyright concern and gives rights holders a direct, documented way to send us a notice. Last updated September 14, 2026.

Our approach to third-party documents

Product names, trademarks, datasheets, manuals, and other manufacturer materials remain the property of their respective owners. We organize these documents as practical references for product identification, research, repair, and education. Some datasheets are copies hosted in our public file store, while others may link to third-party sites. We do not claim ownership of them, alter their technical content, or imply an affiliation with the manufacturer.

Our hope is that easier access helps technicians, designers, and students identify equipment and find documentation useful for responsible work on building systems. We value the work that goes into these documents and want to hear from rights holders who have concerns about a specific item.

Before sending a notice
You do not need to contact us informally before sending a notice. For a formal notice, please confirm that you own the copyright or are authorized to act for the owner, identify the work and material location, and consider whether the use is authorized by the owner or by law. Knowingly making a material misrepresentation can carry legal consequences.
What a complete takedown notice needs
  • Your physical or electronic signature.
  • Identification of the copyrighted work, or a representative list when one notice covers several works.
  • The specific ControlsList URL, if available, or other information sufficient to locate the material.
  • Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
  • A good-faith statement that the disputed use is not authorized by the owner, its agent, or the law.
  • An accuracy and authority statement made under penalty of perjury.
What happens next

A successful form submission issues a reference number. That receipt confirms delivery, not a decision. We review notices for completeness, locate the identified material, and investigate the claim. We may contact the sender to obtain missing information. When appropriate, we act expeditiously to remove or disable access to the material and notify the party that supplied it.

Counter-notices and repeat infringement

A person who believes material was removed because of mistake or misidentification may email a written counter-notice to dmca@t2x.ltd. Include your physical or electronic signature; identification of the removed material and its former location; your name, address, and phone number; a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the removal resulted from mistake or misidentification; and a statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your address, or if you are outside the United States, a district where T2X LLC may be found, and accepting service of process from the original claimant or their agent.

Where the statutory counter-notice process applies, we forward a valid counter-notice to the original claimant and follow the applicable restoration procedure, generally restoring access 10 to 14 business days after receiving it unless we receive notice that the claimant filed an action seeking a court order. If outside contributors supply materials, we may stop accepting them from sources that repeatedly infringe.
