The drakkarstream.st service (the "Service") is operated by Drakkar Holdings N.V. (the "Operator"), an international business company organised under the laws of Curaçao. The Operator acts as a hosting / transmission service provider in the meaning of applicable safe-harbor regimes (17 U.S.C. § 512, EU Directive 2000/31/EC, Article 6 DSA). All references to "Drakkar", "we", "us" and "our" mean the Operator.
Creator ownership
You retain all rights, title and interest in any video, thumbnail, caption or other material you upload to Drakkar ("Your Content"). Drakkar does not claim ownership of Your Content.
Licence granted to Drakkar
By uploading Your Content you grant Drakkar a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable licence to host, transcode, store, cache, transmit, display, reproduce, distribute and create technical derivative works (such as quality ladders and HLS segments) of Your Content for the sole purpose of operating, securing, promoting and improving the platform.
This licence ends when Your Content is removed from Drakkar, except for (i) cached copies on third-party CDNs which expire on their normal schedule and (ii) backup or aggregated analytics retained for legal, audit or fraud-prevention purposes.
Viewer licence
Viewers receive a limited, non-transferable, revocable licence to stream Your Content through the official Drakkar player and approved embeds. Downloading, recording, scraping or redistribution outside the player is prohibited unless the creator explicitly enables it.
Restrictions
You must hold all rights necessary to upload Your Content and to grant the licence in section 2. You may not:
- Upload content that infringes any third party's copyright, trademark, performer, likeness or moral rights.
- Strip, alter or obscure copyright notices, watermarks, captions or attribution embedded in third-party material.
- Use the platform's encoder or CDN to mirror copyrighted streams from other services.
- Manipulate qualified-view metrics or use bot traffic to inflate revenue on infringing material.
Third-party content within Your Content
If your video contains third-party material (music, footage, gameplay, voice-overs, brand logos), you must have a valid licence, written permission or a clear fair-use / fair-dealing basis. Keep evidence — Drakkar may request it during enforcement reviews.
Reporting infringement
If you believe content on Drakkar infringes your copyright, file a takedown notice through our DMCA process. The notice must include the elements listed there and be sent to [email protected].
Drakkar removes or blocks content under any of three independent triggers:
- Automated filters identify a potential infringement (hash match, fingerprint match, watermark detection).
- Official notifications from a court, regulator or competent authority indicate that the content violates third-party rights.
- Credible notifications accompanied by supporting evidence allege an infringement under the DMCA or equivalent regime.
The Operator removes or blocks reported material immediately and no later than within three (3) days of receiving a complete notification.
Restoration request
If your content was removed in error you may request restoration by submitting evidence that it does not infringe third-party rights or violate decency. Send the request to [email protected] with the subject line RESTORATION REQUEST — <original URL>. The Operator evaluates restoration requests within five (5) business days; restored content is re-enabled subject to any pending court order or counter-claim.
Repeat-infringer policy
Drakkar maintains a strikes-based system. Each accepted infringement notice attributed to an account counts as one strike:
- Strike 1: warning + content removed + 30-day educational period.
- Strike 2: 14-day upload & payout suspension.
- Strike 3: account termination, content delisting and forfeiture of any pending balance attributable to infringing material.
Strikes expire 12 months after issuance if no further valid notice is received in the meantime.
Counter-notification
If you believe your content was removed in error, you may file a counter-notification under the DMCA counter-notice procedure.
Trademark complaints
To report misuse of a registered trademark on Drakkar, send a written complaint to [email protected] with proof of trademark ownership, the registration number, the goods/services covered and the URL of the alleged infringing material.
