This page sets out what BL & GL Flix publishes, what it uses other people’s material for, what it does not claim, and how to have something removed. It is the page to read first if you hold rights in anything that appears here.
1. Where this site stands
BL & GL Flix is a reference archive. It does not host, publish, mirror, embed or link to an unlicensed copy of any film, series, episode or recording.
Image use is limited to one poster per record and one portrait per person. There are no stills, no screenshots, no galleries, no wallpapers, no downloads, no high resolution files, no bulk export and no hotlink endpoint.
When a valid objection arrives from a rights holder, the material is removed within two business days, without arguing about whether we were right, and a record of the request and the action taken is kept.
These three commitments stand together. They are the terms on which this archive operates, and none of them is conditional on the other two.
2. What is published here, and how much of it
Each title record carries a written synopsis, structured facts about the work (dates, episode counts, runtimes, country, network, genre), a cast and crew list, editorial commentary and a question and answer section, all written for this site. Person records carry a written biography and a professional credit list. News and guide articles are original writing.
Alongside that text, a title record shows one poster, and a person record shows one portrait. That is the whole of the image use. Nothing here reproduces the work itself: no episode stills, no frame grabs, no screen captures, no subtitle files, no scripts, and no scanned manga, manhwa or webtoon pages. No video is hosted, streamed, mirrored or embedded from an unlicensed source.
Where a work can legally be watched or read, the record links to the rights holder’s own platform or to a licensed distributor. It links nowhere else. If no licensed source can be verified, the field is left empty.
3. Where the images come from
Every image on this site belongs to one of three groups, and each group is handled differently.
3.1 Material published for promotion
Posters, key art, cover art and portraits that the producing party released in order to publicise a work, for distribution to the press and to platforms. These files are obtained through the API of The Movie Database (TMDB), which is a service the files pass through, not their owner. Rights in them remain with the studio, network, distributor, publisher or agency that produced the work.
This product uses the TMDB API but is not endorsed or certified by TMDB.
A promotional image that has circulated widely does not stop being somebody’s property. This site does not describe any of this material as unowned or free to use. We use material published for promotional purposes, in line with the purpose it was published for, for identification and commentary, and rights remain with the studio.
3.2 Material sent to us
Anything sent to this site for promotional purposes by a distributor, channel, agency or management is used credited to the sender. Sending it counts as permission to publish it in that context. It is not a transfer of ownership, it does not extend to any other use, and it can be withdrawn at any time by writing to the address in section 8.
3.3 Images this site generates
Decorative artwork on guide and article pages is produced by this site using AI image tools and belongs to this site. Three rules govern it without exception: it does not depict a real, recognisable person; it is not presented as a photograph of a real event; and it is not used on person records. Where such an image appears, its caption says so.
4. How every image is credited
Each image carries two separate credits, and they are not the same thing.
- File source. Where the file was obtained, for example the TMDB API, or the distributor who sent it.
- Rights holder. The studio, channel, distributor, publisher or agency that produced the work.
The rights holder is never this site, and never the service the file passed through. Both credits belong on the record itself rather than buried in a legal page, and that is where this site puts them.
This is the standard. It is not yet met on every file. A large part of the library, particularly records added in bulk, currently carries the file source alone, and the rights holder is being added record by record. Where you find a file credited to a source but not to its owner, that is an incomplete credit rather than a claim about ownership, and a message naming the file will get it corrected.
5. What this site claims, and what it does not
This site claims the writing, the structure of the records, the editorial judgement, the scores, the page design and the images described in section 3.3. That work may not be copied wholesale.
This site claims no ownership whatsoever in any poster, portrait, cover, logo, trademark, title, character or work described here. It does not claim a licence to sublicense any of it, it does not offer any of it for download or for sale, and it does not present any of it as its own.
The use of promotional material here aims to stay within the limits recognised for identification, news reporting, criticism and commentary. In the same breath: this site will not dig in and rely on that argument. If a rights holder objects, the material comes down under section 8, and the legal question is not litigated first.
6. No affiliation
BL & GL Flix is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by or connected to any studio, channel, platform, agency, publisher, distributor or artist mentioned anywhere on this site. No production covered here has any say in what is written about it. Commercial arrangements, or their absence, are set out in full on the Advertising and Affiliate Disclosure.
7. Person records and the private life boundary
A person record on this site covers professional life: credits, roles, releases, awards, and publicly announced career facts. A portrait on such a record is a promotional photograph released by the agency, credited to the agency or the photographer where that is known.
Relationships, health, family and finances are not published here. Nor is anything else about a private life that no admissible source states. A field that cannot be sourced is left empty rather than filled with an inference, and on-screen pairings are described as professional collaboration, never as a claim about anybody’s private relationship.
For any subject who appears to be a minor, birth dates, physical measurements, schools, places of residence and personal social accounts are omitted entirely, whatever other sites publish.
If you are the subject of a record, or represent them, you can have a photograph replaced or removed, a detail corrected, a name or romanisation changed, or the entire record taken down. Write to the address below. You will not be asked to prove your identity before a request about your own record is acted on.
8. Asking us to remove something
A formal notice is not required. A plain email naming the page is enough. The material is removed first and the correspondence happens afterwards.
Write to info@blglflix.com. Valid objections are acted on within two business days of receipt. This is the commitment this site makes, and each request is logged with the date it arrived and the action taken.
What a formal notice should contain
If you prefer the formal route, send a notice to info@blglflix.com with the subject line “Copyright Notice”, containing:
- your full name;
- your title or role, and the rights holder you act for;
- your contact details, of which an email address is sufficient;
- identification of the copyrighted work you say has been infringed;
- the full URL or URLs on blglflix.com where the material appears;
- a statement that you are the owner of the right, or are authorised to act on the owner’s behalf;
- a statement that the information in the notice is accurate, made under penalty of perjury;
- your physical or electronic signature.
A notice missing some of these will still be acted on. The list exists so that a formal notice can be answered formally, not as a gate in front of a takedown.
9. Counter-notice
If material was removed and you believe that was a mistake, send a counter-notice to the same address containing your name and contact details, the material and the URL where it appeared before removal, a statement under penalty of perjury that you believe in good faith the material was removed in error or through misidentification, and your signature. A counter-notice is answered within two business days, and the material may be restored where the objection has been withdrawn or was plainly misdirected.
10. Repeat infringement
This site does not accept uploads from the public, so there are no user accounts through which copyright material could be posted. Every image here was placed by the editor. If a source repeatedly supplies material that turns out to be infringing, that source stops being used. Community comments and Mood Board posts that infringe are removed, and a contributor who repeatedly posts infringing material is blocked from posting.
11. Other kinds of complaint
- A factual error, a missing credit or an out-of-date record goes to the Corrections Policy.
- A question about how records are researched and written is answered by the Editorial Policy.
- A personal data request, including access and deletion, goes to the Privacy Policy.
- Advertising, sponsorship and commercial matters are covered by the Advertising and Affiliate Disclosure.
- Everything else is routed on the Contact page.
