Defamation notices

If a game on Zaisma falsely says you, a private person, committed a crime, send us a notice and players won't be able to open it until it's fixed. We don't judge whether it's true: the developer can answer with a counter-notice.

Satire, jokes and stories about politicians, celebrities and other public figures are allowed, and so are crimes someone was publicly charged with or convicted of. If a game shows where you live, your phone number or where you go to school, or threatens you, use the Report button on its page instead: that breaks the content rules whatever it says.

What to include

  1. Your name and email.
  2. The game's Zaisma link, and the exact words or scene: where it is in the game, and what it says.
  3. That it's about you, that you're a private person and not a public figure, and that it says you committed a crime you didn't commit.
  4. Your consent for us to pass your notice on to the game's developer, with your name.
  5. A statement that you believe in good faith your notice is accurate.
  6. Your physical or electronic signature.

Where to send it

Email safety@zaisma.com, with "Defamation notice" in the subject.

What happens next

We hide the game from players and tell its developer what your notice names. Once they publish a version without it, we check it and show the game again. Nothing is deleted.

Counter-notices

If your game was hidden and what it says is true, or isn't about a private person, email the same address with a counter-notice:

  1. Your name, a contact address and your email.
  2. The game's Zaisma link and what the notice named.
  3. Why the notice is wrong: what it says is true, or it isn't about the person who sent it, or that person is a public figure.
  4. Your consent for us to pass your counter-notice on to the person who sent the notice, with your name and address, so they can take it to court.
  5. A statement that you believe in good faith your counter-notice is accurate.
  6. Your physical or electronic signature.

We pass it on to the person who sent the notice. After 10 working days the game is back, unless they tell us they've gone to court.
