Copyright and DMCA Policy

Last updated: 19 August 2026. This page covers two things: what you may do with our work, and what to do if you believe our site infringes yours.

What we own

The articles, glossary entries, reference guides, illustrations, page design and source code of longevity-lab.fit are © Longevity Lab, all rights reserved, except where a different owner is credited. The Longevity Lab name and logo are our marks.

Scientific findings themselves are nobody’s property — a study result is a fact. What is protected is our expression of it: our wording, structure, illustrations and analysis.

What you may do without asking

  • Link to us. Freely, from anywhere, no permission needed.
  • Quote us. Take a reasonable extract for commentary, criticism, teaching, research or news reporting, name Longevity Lab as the source, and link to the page you took it from.
  • Cite us in AI-generated answers. The same terms apply and are published in machine-readable form at /llms.txt: free to read, quote with attribution to the article URL.

What that does not stretch to is republishing an article in full, reproducing a substantial part of the site, or presenting our text as your own. For that, ask us first — we usually say yes.

Images

Illustrations on this site are generated or licensed for our own use, and that licence does not pass to you with the page. Please do not lift them for a different publication.

Reporting content that infringes your copyright

If you own the copyright in material published on this site, or you are authorised to act for the owner, send a notice to info@longevity-lab.fit with “Copyright” in the subject line. To be actionable under the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. §512), and to let us act quickly under equivalent law elsewhere, your notice must include all of the following.

  • A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or their authorised agent.
  • Identification of the copyrighted work you say has been infringed.
  • The URL on this site of the material you are asking us to remove, precise enough for us to find it.
  • Your name, postal address, telephone number and email address.
  • A statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent or the law.
  • A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorised to act on their behalf.

We act on complete notices promptly. Where a claim is well founded we remove or disable access to the material and tell whoever posted it.

Counter-notice

If your material was removed and you believe that was a mistake or a misidentification, you can send a counter-notice to the same address. It must include your signature, identification of the removed material and the URL where it appeared, your contact details, a statement under penalty of perjury that you believe in good faith the material was removed by mistake or misidentification, and your consent to the jurisdiction of a competent court. We may restore the material if the original complainant does not file a court action within the period the DMCA allows.

Misuse

Knowingly filing a false copyright notice, or a false counter-notice, carries liability for damages under section 512(f) of the DMCA. Please be sure of your claim before you send it.

Repeat infringers

We do not host user-submitted content, so there are no accounts to terminate. If that ever changes, we will terminate the accounts of repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.

Content we publish that belongs to others

We quote from published research under fair use and fair dealing, and we cite every source. If you believe we have overstepped, tell us at info@longevity-lab.fit and we will look at it seriously and quickly.
