Copyright & Takedown Policy

Effective September 27, 2026

This is the English version of our Derechos de autor y retirada de contenido. Both versions have the same content.

In short

SpanishFeed doesn't create or rewrite content: each week it selects content that is already public on the Spanish-language internet.
Every item shows its source, its author when known, and a link to the original.
Wherever the platform allows it, we link or embed instead of copying: videos play in YouTube's official player, and Virales cards open the original.
Wikimedia Commons photos and Wikipedia text are used under their free licenses, with author and license.
If you're a rights holder, we remove the content as soon as we verify your request, and hide it in every copy of the app without waiting for an app update. Request a takedown.

1. What SpanishFeed is

SpanishFeed is an app that brings together Spanish-language internet content in one place: posts and conversations, images, polls, jokes, videos, links to the week's most viral content, and news headlines. Users cannot upload content: everything in the app is selected by us from public sources.

SpanishFeed's value lies in the selection, the organization into categories, the presentation and the personalization. We claim no ownership of third-party content, which remains the property of its authors.

2. How we select content

Each week we look for public Spanish-language content: open social and forum posts, public videos, charts and articles.
We don't invent or alter content. Text is copied verbatim from its source. When a text is long, we only shorten it by removing whole sentences and marking the cut with "…"; we never change the words.
Before each selection is published, an automated process re-opens every source and checks that the quoted text and numbers appear there.
We exclude sexual, hateful or violent content, content that exposes private individuals, and anything we can't verify.
If a platform doesn't allow access to its content (for example, because it requires signing in), we don't use it.

3. How we display each type of content

Type	What we show	What we store
Videos	The video plays inside YouTube's official player (embedding authorized by YouTube). Views count for the creator on YouTube.	Only the video ID, its title and the channel name. We never download or host videos.
Virales links (posts on TikTok, Instagram, X, YouTube, Twitch, Bluesky, Reddit, Menéame and Dailymotion; series, films and TV shows; songs and podcasts; articles)	The post's title or text, a short excerpt where available, the number that shows its popularity, and the preview image the platform itself provides. Tapping opens the original.	The link, title and excerpt. Preview images are not downloaded: they load from the platform's servers.
Posts and conversations	The title, the text (or an excerpt) and up to three replies, quoted verbatim, with the username as shown at the source and a link to the full conversation.	The quoted text, its author and the link.
Jokes	The text of the joke, with the source where it was published.	The text and the link.
Polls	The question and the results published by the original source (for example, a survey reported by a news outlet), with a reference to who ran it.	The question, options, percentages and link.
Wikimedia Commons photos	The photo, with its author and license shown on the card and in the detail view.	A resized, compressed copy of the photo, as its free license allows.
Images shared on social platforms (memes, screenshots)	The image as it was posted, with its source and author when known, and a link to the original post.	A resized copy to display in the app. Removed immediately if the rights holder asks.
Wikipedia text	Verbatim sentences from Spanish Wikipedia articles, with a link to the article and to its license.	The excerpts, which remain under their CC BY-SA 4.0 license.
News	The headline, short summary and image that the outlet publishes in its RSS feed for syndication. Each story opens on the outlet's website.	Nothing: the app fetches them live from the outlet.
Numbers and rankings	Views, likes, votes, chart positions, TV audience figures, box-office positions and "most read" rankings, exactly as published by the source (streaming and music charts, radio stations, ratings reports, newspapers' most-read lists, Wikipedia's most-viewed pages, Google Trends), with the date they were checked.	The number, the chart and the date.

4. Attribution

Every card shows the source name (for example "Reddit · r/mexico", "YouTube · channel name" or the outlet's name).
The detail view also shows the author when known, the date, the license if any, and a "Ver original" (view original) button.
When a post is shared as an image, the generated image includes the source.
The app's Profile → Fuentes y créditos (sources and credits) screen lists every source used, with how many posts come from each and their licenses.

5. Free licenses

Some content is published under licenses that allow reuse under conditions. We comply as follows:

Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY) and Attribution-ShareAlike (CC BY-SA), for example Wikimedia Commons photos: we give the author as listed on the file page, the license name and a link to the source. The only changes we make are technical (resizing and compressing the image), as stated here.
Wikipedia text (CC BY-SA 4.0): we quote verbatim sentences with a link to the article, whose history identifies the authors. Those excerpts remain under the same license, and anyone reusing them must respect it.
Public domain: we mark it as such and still cite the source.

If you notice a missing or incorrect attribution, write to us and we'll fix it.

6. Trademarks

The names and logos of YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X, Reddit, Bluesky, Menéame, Twitch, Dailymotion, Wikipedia, Google, Medium, Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, Max, Apple TV+, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Apple Music, iTunes, Deezer, Billboard, Castbox, Podchaser, iVoox, and of the news outlets, radio stations and chart publishers cited are trademarks of their respective owners. We use them only to identify where each piece of content comes from. SpanishFeed is not affiliated with, sponsored or endorsed by any of them.

7. Request a takedown

If you own the rights to content that appears in SpanishFeed (or act on the owner's behalf) and you don't authorize its use, send us a request with:

Your contact details: name, email address and, if you act for someone else, who you represent.
The copyrighted work: a description of the work you hold rights to (or a link to it).
The content in SpanishFeed: the "Ver original" link or, better, the post's identifier (it appears in the email created by the app's Report option) and a description that lets us find it (category, text or source).
A statement of good faith that the use is not authorized by the owner, its agent or the law.
A statement that the information in the request is accurate and that you are the owner or authorized to act on the owner's behalf.
Your signature, physical or electronic (typing your full name is enough).

You can send it in two ways:

Through the copyright form, which includes all of these fields.
By email to highlyintellectualmind@gmail.com.

This procedure follows the notice elements of the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)) and is compatible with the notice-and-action mechanism of the EU Digital Services Act (Art. 16). You don't need to cite any law to ask us to remove something.

8. What happens next

Acknowledgement within 2 business days.
Review. If the request is complete, we remove the content without arguing the merits. If information is missing, we ask for it.
Removal from every copy of the app. We add the content to our public removed-content list. Every copy of the app checks that list when it opens and immediately hides removed content, including in "Guardados" (saved), without needing an app update. We also delete it from our catalog and from the next version of the app.
Confirmation by email once the removal is live. Our goal is to complete it within 48 business hours of receiving a complete request.

Since we don't host user content, there are no accounts to suspend. If a source accumulates valid requests, we stop using it.

9. Counter-notice

If you are the author of content we removed and believe it was removed by mistake (for example, because you own it or have a license), email highlyintellectualmind@gmail.com identifying the content, explaining why, and stating in good faith that the removal was a mistake. If the person who requested the removal doesn't show within a reasonable time that they have started legal action, we may restore it. In any case, we can always decide not to republish content.

10. Informal requests from creators

Your post appears in SpanishFeed and you'd like us to credit you differently, link to another profile, or simply take it down? No formal process needed: write to us through the form or at highlyintellectualmind@gmail.com and we'll do it.

11. False or abusive requests

In some countries, knowingly submitting a false takedown request can create legal liability (for example, 17 U.S.C. § 512(f) in the US). If you're unsure whether a use infringes your rights, consider consulting a professional before sending a formal request, or use the informal route above.

12. Our own rights

The SpanishFeed name and logo, the design and code of the app and this site, and the selection and arrangement of content belong to SpanishFeed. Third-party content does not belong to SpanishFeed and remains subject to its owners' rights.
