who to contact at Mathworks when they post an APP taken from my site?

1 view (last 30 days)
(updated my question to make it clear my code was posted at FileExchange by some community member).
FileExchange has an app by a community person that is pretty much all my code taken from my site. Someone took all my code and GUI and repackaged it as a matlab app. I knew this was my code when I had one look at the GUI. I Downloaded the source code, and it was mine. They took my name out and renamed the files, and they now claim they published it under their name.
I wrote this myself for a school project. Who to contact at mathworks for this? I have my name on the code which means I am the owner. The app is at FileExchange site, under the apps menu.

Just curious is it Mathworks that stole it or someone in the community that submitted it to the File exchange?

I assume that you refer to an app in the File Exchange (FEX).
MATLAB Central Terms of Use, which applies to the File Exchange says:
...
2. Content
a. Guidelines for Submitting and Using Content.
i. You represent and warrant that you are the owner of any Content
submitted by you, or that you control the rights to or have
received all necessary consents to submit, such Content.
...
e. MathWorks has no obligation to monitor the Content.
If you indeed refer to an app in the FEX you may contact The MathWorks
