Copyright policy and takedown requests

Last updated 6 November 2026.

Studote respects the rights of creators. Students may only upload notes they created or have permission to share. If you believe something on Studote infringes your copyright, please tell us.

How to send a notice

Email [email protected] with the subject “Copyright notice”, and include:

• Your name and contact details.
• A description of the work you say has been copied.
• The web address of the note or page on Studote, so we can find it.
• A statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorised by you, the owner or the law.
• A statement that the information in your notice is accurate, and that you are the owner or authorised to act for the owner.
• Your signature (typing your full name is fine).

What we do

When we receive a complete notice we will promptly review it and, where appropriate, remove or disable access to the note and tell the person who uploaded it. Logged-in users can also use the report button on any note.

If your note was removed

If you believe your note was removed by mistake, write to us with the note’s title and why you believe you have the right to share it. We will review it and may restore the note if appropriate.

Repeat infringers

We close the accounts of users who repeatedly upload infringing material.

Please do not misuse this process

Knowingly false notices can have legal consequences. Contact us if you are unsure.
