DMCA — Takedown Policy — Westside Radio

1. COMMITMENT TO INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Westside Radio takes Intellectual Property matters very seriously and is committed to meeting the needs of copyright holders by helping them manage the publication of their content online.

Westside Radio is a live entertainment platform that operates as an audiovisual content portal. We do not host third-party videos on our servers — we exclusively use the YouTube Embedded Player (YouTube API) for embedding videos from authorized official channels, in full compliance with the YouTube API Terms of Service and YouTube's Content Policy.

Regarding audio content, Westside Radio maintains a curated music library that is duly reported to ECAD (Escritório Central de Arrecadação e Distribuição), serving as an active contributor to the Brazilian copyright system. Track identification is performed in partnership with ACRCloud.

2. THIRD-PARTY CONTENT

Any content displayed through embedded third-party players (embeds) is the sole responsibility of the website or platform that hosts the original content. Westside Radio has no knowledge of whether the content on the third-party site is or is not authorized by the copyright holder, this being a matter exclusively between the site hosting the content and the rights holder.

Westside Radio does not host any third-party audio or video content on its servers or network.

3. DIGITAL MILLENNIUM COPYRIGHT ACT (DMCA) — §512

Westside Radio is a pro-DMCA platform. In compliance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the text of which may be found at the U.S. Copyright Office website at www.copyright.gov), Westside Radio will respond promptly to notices of copyright infringement reported to our Designated Agent identified below.

Copyright holders may use the DMCA protocol to request the removal of links to content they believe infringes their rights. It should be noted that the removal of a link from Westside Radio does not remove the original content hosted by the third-party site. The rights holder must contact the site hosting the content directly to request removal at the source.
