Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) Policy

TheHappyMod.com (“the Site,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to respecting the intellectual property rights of others and operates in full compliance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). This policy outlines our procedures for responding to notices of alleged copyright infringement.

Our Role as a Service Provider

It is essential to understand the specific role of our website. TheHappyMod.com is a third-party resource center. Our primary functions are:

  • To provide expert guides, reviews, and tutorials related to the HappyMod application.
  • To provide a direct download link to the main HappyMod APK file (the “app store”), which we personally test for safety and functionality.

The HappyMod application itself contains a library of modified software files (“mods”) that are submitted and maintained by a global community of independent users. We do not develop, host, or control the individual mods available within the HappyMod library.

Our adherence to this DMCA policy is a critical component of our commitment to being a high-quality, trusted resource and is in accordance with the terms of service for our advertising partners, including Google AdSense.

Procedure for Reporting Copyright Infringement

Suppose you are a copyright owner or an agent thereof and believe that any content on our Site infringes upon your copyrights. In that case, you may submit a notification according to the DMCA by providing our designated Copyright Agent with the following information in writing:

  • A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
  • Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed.
  • Identification of the material on our Site that is claimed to be infringing (e.g., a specific mention in an article, a screenshot, or a link) and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material.
  • Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an email address.
  • A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  • A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

Please send all DMCA notices to our designated Copyright Agent:

Our Takedown Process

Upon receipt of a valid DMCA notification, we will act expeditiously to:

  • Acknowledge receipt of your complaint via email.
  • Remove or disable access to the specific content on thehappymod.com that is identified as infringing. This includes removing mentions from articles, deleting relevant screenshots, and removing any links that directly promote the specific infringing material.
  • Politely inform the complainant of our limited role and advise them that to have the mod removed from the HappyMod platform itself, they must contact the operators of that service directly.

This process ensures we fulfill our legal obligations under the DMCA’s “safe harbor” provisions and maintain a compliant environment for our advertising partners.
