Digital Millennium Copyright Act Policy
Welcome to our website. We value the rights of intellectual property and expect the same from others. According to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, a copyright owner or their representative can send a takedown notice to us through our DMCA Agent. As an internet service provider, we are protected by the “safe harbor” provisions of the DMCA against claims of copyright infringement. To submit a valid infringement claim, certain information must be provided:
Notice of Infringement – Claim
- A signature of the copyright owner or an authorized representative
- Identification of the copyrighted work that has been infringed
- Location of the infringing material and information to help locate it
- Contact information of the complaining party including name, address, etc.
- A statement that the use of material is unauthorized
- A statement that the information provided is accurate and the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner
Under Title 17 USC §512(f), penalties may apply for misrepresentation in an infringement claim. Takedown notices should be sent through our Contact page via email for timely processing. Note that identity and information in a claim may be shared with the alleged infringer.
Counter Notification – Restoration of Material
If you receive a takedown notice, you can provide a counter notification to have the material restored. This notification should include your signature, details of the removed material, a statement of good faith belief, and consent to jurisdiction of the court.
Send the counter notice through our Contact page, preferably via email.
Repeat Infringer Policy
We have a strict policy against copyright infringement and identify repeat offenders. Accounts of repeat infringers will be terminated in line with the DMCA requirements.
Modifications
We reserve the right to modify this policy for handling DMCA claims. Please check back periodically for any updates.
