DMCA Policy
Last Updated: September 15, 2026
NFL Shirt respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects customers, visitors, designers, production partners, fulfillment partners, suppliers, and service providers to do the same. This DMCA Policy explains how NFL Shirt handles copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property complaints relating to content, product designs, product images, text, graphics, artwork, submitted materials, personalization content, and other materials displayed on or submitted through our website.
NFL Shirt operates as a Print-on-Demand (POD) store specializing in made-to-order custom football shirts, football fan-inspired apparel, game day clothing, personalized products, and related designs. Because our products are generally produced after an order is placed, we take intellectual property protection seriously and do not knowingly permit unauthorized materials that infringe the rights of third parties.
1. Respect for Intellectual Property
NFL Shirt is committed to respecting copyrights, trademarks, brand rights, publicity rights, privacy rights, and other intellectual property rights. We do not knowingly publish, produce, promote, or sell products that infringe the intellectual property rights of others.
If we receive a valid intellectual property complaint, we will review it in good faith and may take appropriate action where necessary.
Such action may include:
- Removing or disabling access to allegedly infringing content.
- Removing a product or product listing from our website.
- Stopping production of an affected Print-on-Demand product.
- Rejecting submitted artwork, personalization, or custom requests where applicable.
- Canceling an order associated with infringing material when appropriate.
- Restricting access to certain services.
- Taking action against repeat infringers.
2. Prohibited Content
You may not submit, upload, request, personalize, provide, reproduce, order, or otherwise use content through NFL Shirt that:
- Infringes copyrights, trademarks, patents, trade dress, or other intellectual property rights.
- Uses protected logos, team marks, brand names, artwork, photographs, symbols, slogans, graphics, or designs without appropriate authorization.
- Copies or closely imitates another person’s protected artwork, illustration, photograph, or creative work without permission.
- Violates rights of publicity, privacy, personality, or similar rights.
- Misrepresents ownership, licensing, authorization, sponsorship, endorsement, or affiliation.
- Uses unauthorized athlete, celebrity, coach, or public figure names, images, likenesses, signatures, or other protected identity elements.
- Uses copyrighted sports, entertainment, music, movie, television, game, or other protected content without appropriate permission.
- Creates confusion regarding an official league, team, brand, organization, athlete, creator, or trademark owner.
Content that violates these rules may be removed, rejected, disabled, or excluded from production. NFL Shirt may also cancel related orders or take additional action when appropriate.
3. Football-Inspired Designs and Non-Affiliation
NFL Shirt offers football fan-inspired apparel, custom football shirts, personalized products, and game day-themed designs for customers who enjoy American football culture, football traditions, fan creativity, and expressive sports-inspired fashion.
Unless expressly stated otherwise on a specific product page, NFL Shirt is an independent Print-on-Demand store and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, licensed by, or officially connected with the National Football League, any NFL team, player, league organization, or other trademark owner.
All third-party names, logos, team marks, trademarks, service marks, player identities, artwork, and other intellectual property remain the property of their respective owners.
References to football teams, players, football culture, game day themes, colors, cities, terminology, numbers, or other third-party identifiers do not imply sponsorship, endorsement, licensing, or official affiliation unless expressly stated.
4. Reporting Copyright or Intellectual Property Infringement

Your notice should contain sufficient information for us to identify the allegedly infringing material, understand the basis of your complaint, verify the rights being asserted, and contact you regarding the claim.

10. What Happens After a Counter-Notification
After receiving a valid counter-notification, NFL Shirt may provide a copy of the counter-notification to the party who submitted the original copyright complaint.
Material may be restored where appropriate if applicable requirements are satisfied and we have not received notice of legal action preventing restoration.
Restoration is not guaranteed. NFL Shirt reserves the right to keep material removed when we believe that it violates our policies, intellectual property standards, third-party platform requirements, brand protection rules, or applicable law.

12. False Claims and Misrepresentation
Any infringement notice or counter-notification submitted to NFL Shirt should be truthful, accurate, complete, and made in good faith.
Knowingly submitting false, fraudulent, misleading, or materially inaccurate information in connection with an infringement notice or counter-notification may result in legal consequences under applicable law.
NFL Shirt reserves the right to reject complaints that appear incomplete, fraudulent, abusive, misleading, or submitted without sufficient authority.
13. Trademarks and Other Intellectual Property Rights
Although the DMCA primarily concerns copyright, NFL Shirt also accepts and reviews complaints involving trademarks and other intellectual property or related rights.
These may include:
- Trademark infringement.
- Trade dress infringement.
- Unauthorized league or team logo use.
- Brand or logo misuse.
- Counterfeit or misleading merchandise.
- False affiliation.
- False endorsement.
- Impersonation.
- Rights of publicity.
- Privacy rights.
- Unauthorized use of names, photographs, images, likenesses, signatures, jersey numbers, or protected brand identities.
NFL Shirt may remove or disable material that we believe violates trademark rights, brand protection rules, publicity rights, privacy rights, or other intellectual property standards even when a formal DMCA copyright notice has not been submitted.
14. Print-on-Demand Product Designs
NFL Shirt is a Print-on-Demand business. Our products are generally produced only after a customer places an order.
Intellectual property compliance is therefore relevant not only to website content but also to designs, graphics, text, personalization details, and other materials that may be submitted for production.
We may stop production, remove a listing, reject a customization request, request additional documentation, or take other appropriate action when a product design is reasonably believed to infringe third-party intellectual property rights.
Examples of protected materials may include:
- League and team logos.
- Registered trademarks.
- Official merchandise graphics.
- Protected slogans or phrases.
- Player, coach, or celebrity photographs.
- Protected names, signatures, and likenesses.
- Copyrighted artwork and illustrations.
- Brand graphics and logos.
- Official uniform or merchandise artwork.
- Artwork belonging to independent artists or creators.
Our made-to-order production model does not eliminate intellectual property obligations. Products created through Print-on-Demand must still comply with applicable intellectual property rights.
15. Customer-Submitted and Personalized Content
If NFL Shirt offers a feature that allows customers to submit artwork, images, text, names, numbers, logos, phrases, design files, references, personalization instructions, or other content, you represent that you have the necessary rights or authorization to use and submit that material.
You are responsible for ensuring that any material you provide does not violate copyrights, trademarks, publicity rights, privacy rights, or other rights belonging to third parties.
We may request proof of ownership, licensing, consent, or authorization before producing a design containing third-party intellectual property.
NFL Shirt reserves the right to reject submitted content, personalization, or custom requests that may create infringement concerns, legal risk, or confusion with an official league, team, athlete, brand, creator, or organization.
16. Intellectual Property Complaints From Rights Owners
Rights owners, authorized agents, leagues, teams, brands, athletes, artists, photographers, designers, licensors, and other intellectual property owners are encouraged to contact us directly if they identify material on NFL Shirt that they believe violates their rights.
Providing the exact product URL, screenshots or identifying information, and clear documentation of the rights being asserted will help us locate and review the material more efficiently.
17. No Legal Advice
This DMCA Policy is provided for informational and operational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice.
If you are uncertain about copyright ownership, trademark rights, licensing, fair use, authorization, publicity rights, or other intellectual property issues, you should consult an appropriately qualified legal professional.
18. Changes to This DMCA Policy
NFL Shirt may update this DMCA Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our website, Print-on-Demand operations, customization features, products, service providers, intellectual property practices, or legal requirements.
Updates will be posted on this page with a revised “Last Updated” date.
