Respecting Intellectual Property Rights
At our platform, we hold a strong commitment to respecting the intellectual property rights of others, just as we expect others to respect our rights. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), specifically Title 17, United States Code, Section 512(c), copyright owners or their authorized agents may submit a takedown notice to us through our designated DMCA Agent, whose contact details are provided below. As an internet service provider, we are entitled to claim immunity from infringement claims under the “safe harbor” provisions of the DMCA. To ensure a legitimate infringement claim, please submit a notice to us containing the following information:
Notice of Infringement – Claim
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or their authorized representative.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed.
- Identification of the infringing material that needs to be removed, along with sufficient information to allow us to locate it (please include the URL of the relevant page, if possible).
- Contact information of the complaining party, including name, physical address, email address, phone number, and fax number.
- A statement from the complaining party, made in good faith, asserting that the use of the material is unauthorized by the copyright owner.
- A statement that the information provided in the notification is accurate, and, under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
Title 17 USC §512(f) imposes civil penalties, including costs and attorney fees, against individuals who knowingly and materially misrepresent information in a notification of infringement under 17 USC §512(c)(3).
Please send all takedown notices through our Contact page, preferably by email, to ensure prompt attention.
It is important to note that we may share the identity and information provided in any copyright infringement claim with the alleged infringer. By submitting a claim, you understand, accept, and agree that your identity and claim may be communicated to the alleged infringer.
Counter Notification – Restoration of Material
If you have received a notice of takedown due to a copyright infringement claim and believe it to be in error, you have the option to provide us with a counter notification. This written notification should be sent to our DMCA Agent and should contain the following elements, as required by 17 USC Section 512(g)(3):
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- A description of the material that was taken down and its original location.
- A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification.
- Your name, address, and telephone number, along with a statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if you are outside of the United States, any judicial district in which the service provider may be found). You must also state that you will accept service of process from the person or company who provided the original infringement notification.
To submit a counter notice, please use our Contact page, and we highly recommend sending it via email.
Repeat Infringer Policy
We take copyright infringement seriously and adhere to the repeat infringer policy requirements of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. To uphold this policy, we maintain a list of DMCA notices received from copyright holders and make genuine efforts to identify any repeat infringers. Accounts found to violate our internal repeat infringer policy will be terminated.
