Content Removal Policy
wetandmessy.com | Brand Design, LLC
Introduction
Brand Design, LLC is committed to operating responsibly and respecting the rights of all individuals depicted in content published on wetandmessy.com. This Content Removal Policy establishes the process by which any person who appears in content on this website may request its removal, and describes how such requests will be evaluated and resolved.
Who May Submit a Removal Request
Any individual who believes they are depicted in content published on this website may submit a content removal request. You do not need to be a current or former customer to do so.
Grounds for Removal
A removal request will be granted if our investigation determines any of the following:
- Consent to the recording, production, or publication of the content was never given by the depicted individual;
- Consent was given but has since been withdrawn in a manner recognized under applicable law;
- Consent is void or unenforceable under applicable federal, state, or local law, including but not limited to circumstances involving age, capacity, coercion, fraud, or duress; or
- The content otherwise violates applicable law.
How to Submit a Removal Request
To initiate a content removal request, please contact us using any of the following methods:
Your request should include:
- Your full legal name and contact information;
- A description of the content at issue, including a URL or other identifying information if available;
- A statement describing the basis for your request (e.g., consent was never given, consent is void, etc.); and
- Any supporting documentation you wish to provide.
You are not required to provide documentation to initiate a request. All requests will be taken seriously regardless of whether supporting materials are included at the time of submission.
Investigation and Review
Upon receiving a removal request, we will:
- Acknowledge receipt of your request within 2 business days;
- Conduct a good-faith review of the request, including an examination of any consent documentation, records, and relevant circumstances; and
- Complete our investigation and notify you of the outcome within 5 business days of acknowledgment.
If the investigation determines that consent was not given, is void, or is unenforceable under applicable law, the content will be removed promptly and without condition.
Outcome and Removal
Where a removal request is granted, we will:
- Remove the content from public access as quickly as technically practicable;
- Confirm removal to the requestor in writing; and
- Take reasonable steps to prevent re-publication of the removed content on this website.
Disagreements and Neutral Resolution
If there is a disagreement regarding the outcome of a removal request — including any dispute about whether consent was validly given or whether removal is required — the requestor has the right to have that disagreement resolved by a neutral third-party body.
Brand Design, LLC will cooperate fully with any such neutral resolution process. We will not impose any requirement, term, or condition that would prevent a requestor from accessing neutral third-party review, and no agreement or policy of ours should be construed to limit this right.
If you wish to escalate a disputed outcome to a neutral body, please notify us in writing at david@wetandmessy.com and we will facilitate that process without delay.
No Retaliation
Brand Design, LLC will not retaliate, penalize, or take any adverse action against any individual for submitting a removal request in good faith, regardless of the outcome.
