Copyright

Torii hosts a lot of work it did not make. This page is how you get yours off it.

Asking for a takedown

If you own something hosted here and you want it gone, message the admins in the Discord with:

  • a link to exactly where it is on Torii,
  • what it is and what part of it is yours (the song, the artwork, the video, the storyboard),
  • enough for us to believe you are the owner or that you speak for them.

Torii is not a company. There is no registered agent and no address to serve papers to, so the Discord is the way to reach us. Takedowns are handled by hand, and you do not need a lawyer to ask for one.

Two things are worth knowing before you write. Most of what a beatmap is made of was not made by whoever uploaded it, so a takedown can remove the map and leave the scores standing. And nothing we do here reaches osu! itself, which is a different server run by different people.

If your beatmap was the one removed

Ask about it in the Discord. Takedowns are a judgement call and sometimes the call is wrong, and when it is wrong the map goes back up.

What Torii claims

Nothing you upload. Your beatmaps, avatars, banners, profile text and replays stay yours. Hosting them is the only thing we do with them.

What Torii does not own

osu!, the osu! name and logo and the official game belong to ppy Pty Ltd. Torii is an unofficial fan server and is not affiliated with or endorsed by them.

The client is a modified build of osu!lazer and the site is a modified build of osu-web. Both are open source and both keep their original licences and copyright notices. Beatmaps, songs and artwork hosted here belong to the people who made them.

Uploading

Do not upload anything you do not have the right to, and that includes maps built out of somebody else's work after being told not to. It lands on you, not on us, and doing it repeatedly costs you the account.
