 Welcome to GitHub's Guide to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, commonly known as the "DMCA." This page is not meant as a comprehensive primer to the statute. However, if you've received a DMCA takedown notice targeting content you've posted on GitHub or if you're a rights-holder looking to issue such a notice, this page will hopefully help to demystify the law a bit as well as our policies for complying with it.

For customers subject to the [Corporate Terms of Service](https://help.github.com/articles/github-corporate-terms-of-service), "you" and "your" refer to "Customer" or "Users". "We", "us", "our" refer to "GitHub".
+

Please see Section H of our [Terms of Service](https://help.github.com/en/articles/github-terms-of-service#h-api-terms) and [Corporate Terms of Service](https://help.github.com/en/articles/github-corporate-terms-of-service#h-api-terms) for our API Terms.

+- Archivists may scrape the Service for public data for archival purposes.
+
+You may not scrape the Service for spamming purposes, including for the purposes of selling User Personal Information (as defined in the [GitHub Privacy Statement](https://help.github.com/articles/github-privacy-statement)), such as to recruiters, headhunters, and job boards.
+
+All use of data gathered through scraping must comply with the [GitHub Privacy Statement](https://help.github.com/articles/github-privacy-statement).
+
+#### 6. Privacy
+Misuse of User Personal Information is prohibited.
+
+Any person, entity, or service collecting data from the Service must comply with the [GitHub Privacy Statement](https://help.github.com/articles/github-privacy-statement), particularly in regards to the collection of User Personal Information. If you collect any User Personal Information from the Service, you agree that you will only use that User Personal Information for the purpose for which that User has authorized it. You agree that you will reasonably secure any User Personal Information you have gathered from the Service, and you will respond promptly to complaints, removal requests, and "do not contact" requests from us or other users.
+
+#### 7. Excessive Bandwidth Use
+
+If we determine your bandwidth usage to be significantly excessive in relation to other users, we reserve the right to suspend your Account or throttle your file hosting until you can reduce your bandwidth consumption.
+
+#### 8. User Protection
+You must not engage in activity that significantly harms other users. We will resolve disputes in favor of protecting users as a whole.

 ### Summary
 1. We want you to responsibly disclose through our bug bounty program, and don't want researchers put in fear of legal consequences because of their good faith attempts to comply with our bug bounty policy. We cannot bind any third party, so do not assume this protection extends to any third party. If in doubt, ask us before engaging in any specific action you think _might_ go outside the bounds of our policy.
