1. Content that must not be uploaded

  • Anything you do not have the right to sell, including copied commercial templates and material scraped from law firms or publishers.
  • Forged, counterfeit or falsified documents: identity documents, diplomas, certificates, licences, invoices or bank statements intended to deceive.
  • Documents whose evident purpose is fraud, tax evasion, sanctions evasion, money laundering, or evading a legal obligation.
  • Third parties' personal data, confidential client files, or documents containing real signatures or identifiers of other people.
  • Content that is unlawful, defamatory, hateful, sexual involving minors, or that promotes violence.
  • Files containing malware, tracking beacons or hidden executable content.

2. Conduct that is not allowed

  • Scraping, bulk downloading, or reselling documents bought here.
  • Circumventing payment, previews, watermarks or download expiry.
  • Manipulating popularity, reviews or analytics.
  • Probing, load-testing or attacking the service, or attempting to access data that is not yours.

3. Enforcement

We may remove content, suspend accounts, withhold balances derived from offending listings, and report unlawful activity to the competent authorities. We are not obliged to give prior notice where the risk is serious.

4. Reporting infringement

Send a notice to main@themusetechnology.com with the subject "Takedown". Include:

  • Your name, address and contact details.
  • Identification of the work you own, with proof of ownership or authority to act.
  • The exact URL of the listing on docmuse.eu.
  • A statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorised by the rights holder or the law.
  • A statement that the information is accurate, and your signature (electronic is fine).

5. What happens next

We aim to act on complete notices within 5 business days, usually by unlisting the document while we assess it, and we inform the seller.

6. Counter-notice

A seller who believes a removal was wrong may reply with a counter-notice containing their contact details, the document concerned, and an explanation of why they hold the rights. If the complainant does not pursue the matter, we may restore the listing.

7. Repeat infringers

Accounts that are the subject of repeated substantiated notices are terminated.
