Copyright and DMCA Requests

Updated 2026-11-12

Copyright and Removal Requests

The games on GameJoy belong to the independent developers who made them. We do not own the games and we do not host the game files. GameDistribution and Y8 distribute the games, and each game runs in the provider’s player inside an iframe on our page. Our part is the game page: the text, the thumbnail and the link that loads the player.

What a Request Should Include

If you hold the rights to a game and want its page removed, your request should cover these points.

• The work: the game’s title and, if you have one, the developer or publisher name.
• The page link: the full gamejoy.app address of the page you want removed.
• Proof of rights: a short statement of what you own and why you are entitled to ask, with any registration or contract details you can share.
• Contact details: your name, organisation and an address we can use to reach you.
• A good-faith statement: a sentence confirming that you believe the page uses the work without permission and that the information in your request is accurate.

What Happens Next

We check each request before we act, and a rights holder can ask us to remove a game page, which we do after checking the request. If the request is valid, we remove the game page from the site. We may also ask the game provider about the listing. We do not promise a reply time, and we do not remove pages on request alone without checking.

How to Send It

There is no public email address yet. It is being set up and will be published on the contact page. Until then, the contact page explains what to include in a copyright request and how to reach us through it. Please send the five points above in one message so we can review it without going back and forth.
