Takedown and Content Removal
Effective September 2, 2026 · Last updated September 2, 2026
This is the written process for getting something removed from Where We Rolling. It covers copyright, defamation, privacy and anything unlawful. A person reads every report, and we answer every one.
Before you file anything: if the problem is a review you disagree with, or a schedule that is out of date, you do not need this page. A gym manager can respond publicly to any review and correct their own listing. Removal is for content that is unlawful or breaches our Community Guidelines — not for content that is unwelcome.
1. Copyright — DMCA notice
If something here infringes a copyright you own or represent, send a written notice with all six of the following. US copyright law requires each one, and a notice missing any of them may not be effective.
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the work you say is infringed. If several, a list.
- The material you want removed and the URL where it appears, precisely enough that we can find it.
- Your address, telephone number and email address.
- A statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorised by the owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement that the information in the notice is accurate, and — under penalty of perjury — that you are the owner or authorised to act for them.
Where to send it
Our designated agent under 17 U.S.C. §512(c):
DMCA Agent, PYTech LLC
818 Palm Grove Ct
South Daytona, FL 32119
hello@wherewerolling.com
Email is the fastest route and the one we watch. Post reaches us, but slowly.
What happens next
- We acknowledge your notice, normally within two business days.
- If it is complete, we remove or disable the material promptly — usually within five business days.
- We tell whoever posted it what was removed, and send them your notice, including your contact details. That is what the law requires; do not send anything you are not prepared for them to see.
- We record the notice and the outcome.
Counter-notice
If your material was removed and you believe that was a mistake or a misidentification, send a counter-notice containing: your signature; the material and where it used to appear; a statement under penalty of perjury that you believe in good faith it was removed by mistake; your name, address and phone number; and your consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for your district (or, if you are outside the US, for the Middle District of Florida), and that you will accept service from the person who complained.
We pass it to them. If they do not tell us within 10 to 14 business days that they have filed a court action, we may put the material back.
False claims
Under §512(f), anyone who knowingly misrepresents that material is infringing — or that it was removed by mistake — is liable for damages and legal costs. Both directions of that apply.
2. Repeat infringers
We keep a record of notices we act on. An account that is the subject of repeated valid notices is terminated, and its gym or instructor listings come down with it. Three strikes in twelve months is our normal threshold; blatant cases go faster.
3. Defamation and false reviews
We are not in a position to decide whether a review is true. What we can do is check whether it breaks our rules, and act when it plainly does.
To report a review or visit report, email hello@wherewerolling.com with:
- the gym and the URL;
- the exact wording you say is false;
- why it is false, with anything supporting it — a schedule, a booking record, a photograph, a receipt;
- your name and your connection to the academy.
We will remove it if it is provably false about a fact, if it is from someone with no visit report behind it, if it comes from a competing academy, if it is abusive or discriminatory, if it names a person who is not a public figure at the gym, or if it is about a child.
We will not remove it for being negative, for describing an experience differently from how you remember it, or for being an honest opinion. A directory whose reviews can be removed by the reviewed is not worth reading, and this one exists because that is what happened to the alternatives.
Where we decline, the gym's public response is the remedy: reply once, factually, under the review. That is usually more persuasive than a deletion nobody sees.
If a court orders removal, we comply.
4. Personal information and images
Removed on request, usually within five business days:
- a phone number, home address or email address for a private individual;
- a photograph of an identifiable person who has not agreed to it;
- anything identifying a child;
- a photograph taken inside a gym by someone with no right to publish it;
- intimate or harassing content, at once.
You do not need to prove ownership of a photograph you are in. Say which image and why.
5. Getting a gym listing removed
If you run an academy and want its listing taken down, email us from an address at the academy's domain, or from the address published on its site. We will remove it, normally within five business days.
We would rather claim it than delete it — a claimed listing you control is better for you than an absence, and if your gym is gone from here it will still be in the aggregators this directory was built from. But it is your call, and no is an answer.
Two things to note. Removing a listing does not remove reviews and reports from the record; they are unpublished with it. And a listing removed today can be re-added by a member of the public tomorrow — tell us to keep it off and we will block it from being submitted again.
6. Anything else unlawful
Email hello@wherewerolling.com with the URL and what law you say it breaks. Threats of violence, content sexualising children, and doxxing are removed immediately and reported to the authorities.
7. What you can expect from us
| Report | Acknowledged | Decided |
|---|---|---|
| Child safety, threats, intimate images | Same day | Immediately |
| DMCA notice | 2 business days | 5 business days |
| Personal information, images | 2 business days | 5 business days |
| Defamation, false review | 2 business days | 10 business days |
| Listing removal by the academy | 2 business days | 5 business days |
This is a small operation and those are targets, not contractual guarantees. If something is urgent, say so in the subject line.
8. If you disagree with what we did
Reply to our decision and say why. Someone will look again. If we still disagree, we will tell you plainly rather than leave you waiting, and nothing here stops you pursuing whatever remedy the law gives you.
9. Records
We keep every notice, what we decided and why. It is how repeat infringers are identified, and how we can show a consistent process was applied.
