Digital Millennium Copyright Act Policy
Thank you for visiting our website (the ‘Site’). We respect the rights of intellectual property and expect others to do the same. Under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), a copyright owner or their representative can send us a notice to remove infringing material. As an internet service provider, we are protected against liability for copyright infringement under the DMCA’s “safe harbor” provisions. To report infringement, you must provide specific information, including:
Notice of Infringement – Claim
- A signature of the copyright owner or their authorized representative;
- Identification of the copyrighted work allegedly infringed;
- Location of the infringing material and details to help us find it;
- Contact information of the complaining party;
- A statement that the use of the material is unauthorized;
- A statement that the information provided is accurate and that the complainant is authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
Under Title 17 USC §512(f), there are penalties for misrepresenting information in a takedown notice. Any false claims can result in civil damages. To send a takedown notice, please contact us through our Contact page via email for faster processing.
Your identity may be shared with the alleged infringer when submitting a copyright claim. By sending a claim, you agree to this disclosure. Please note that we may share information from copyright infringement claims with the accused party.
Counter Notification – Restoration of Material
If your material has been taken down due to a copyright claim, you can provide us with a counter notification. This must be in writing and include your signature, a description of the removed material, a statement of belief that the removal was a mistake, and your contact information. You must agree to legal jurisdiction when submitting a counter notice.
Send your counter notice through our Contact page, preferably via email.
