Copyright & Takedown

Last updated: 28 June 2026 · Governing law: New Zealand

Metal TV respects the rights of creators and rights holders. The channel features music videos and band information sourced from third parties, and members can submit videos. If you own rights to content shown on Metal TV and want it removed, we will act on a valid notice.

Reporting infringement

To request removal, contact us via the contact page (or trent_art@hotmail.com) with:

1. Identification of the work you say is infringed.
2. The specific content on Metal TV (a link, band/song name, or where it appears) so we can find it.
3. Your contact details.
4. A statement that you believe in good faith the use is not authorised by the rights holder or the law.
5. A statement that the information is accurate and that you are the rights holder or authorised to act for them.

What we do

On receiving a valid notice we will remove or disable access to the content promptly, and where possible let the member who submitted it know. We may keep a record of notices.

Counter-notice

If your content was removed and you believe that was a mistake or that you have the rights, contact us with an explanation and your contact details, and we will review it.

Repeat infringers

We may remove content, and suspend or close the accounts of members who repeatedly infringe others' rights.

This is a good-faith takedown process and does not constitute legal advice or an admission of liability.
