This page explains how to report material publicly available on PDF-to-Word.tools that you believe infringes copyright. It provides general information, not legal advice, and does not represent or guarantee eligibility for a legal safe harbor, removal of material, restoration of material, or any response time.
Scope of a copyright complaint
The converter does not provide public hosting or sharing for PDFs uploaded for conversion or for the resulting DOCX files. A copyright complaint should identify material that is accessible on a public page of this website, such as site text, an image, a link, or a downloadable site asset.
Information to include
The U.S. Copyright Office explains that an effective notification under section 512 generally includes substantially the following information:
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act for the owner.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or a representative list if the notice covers multiple works on one site.
- Identification of the material claimed to be infringing and information reasonably sufficient for us to locate it, including the exact public URL where possible.
- Contact information reasonably sufficient to reach the complaining party, such as a mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
- A statement that the complaining party has a good-faith belief that the disputed use 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 the complaining party is authorized to act for the owner of the exclusive right allegedly infringed.
Send the notice to the site’s copyright contact at [email protected]. Receipt of a message does not establish that infringement occurred. We may request clarification or additional information before deciding what action, if any, is appropriate.
Counter-notifications
If material associated with you was removed or disabled after a copyright complaint and you believe the action resulted from mistake or misidentification, section 512 describes a counter-notification process. The U.S. Copyright Office states that an effective counter-notification generally includes:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the removed or disabled material and where it appeared before removal.
- A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled because of mistake or misidentification.
- Your name, address, and telephone number, together with the jurisdiction and service-of-process statements described in section 512.
A counter-notification can have legal consequences. Review the official guidance or obtain advice from a qualified professional before submitting one.
