Digital Millennium Copyright Act Policy
Welcome to our website. We value the rights of intellectual property and expect others to do the same. According to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, copyright owners or their representatives can send us a takedown notice in case of infringement. As an internet service provider, we are protected from liability under the DMCA “safe harbor” provisions. To submit an infringement claim, certain information needs to be provided:
Notice of Infringement – Claim
- A signature of the copyright owner or authorized representative;
- Identification of the copyrighted work;
- Identification of the infringing material and its location;
- Contact information of the complaining party;
- A statement of good faith belief of unauthorized use;
- A statement of accuracy of the information provided.
Under Title 17 USC §512(f), penalties can be imposed for misrepresentation in a copyright infringement claim. Takedown notices should be sent through our Contact page via email for quicker processing.
It is important to note that we may share the information of the copyright infringement claim with the alleged infringer. By submitting a claim, you agree to this.
Counter Notification – Restoration of Material
If a takedown notice has been received, a counter notification can be provided to have the material restored. This notification must include:
- Your signature;
- Description and original location of the material;
- A statement that the material was taken down due to mistake;
- Your contact information and consent to jurisdiction.
The counter notice should be sent through our Contact page, preferably via email.
Repeat Infringer Policy
We adhere to the DMCA’s repeat infringer policy and terminate accounts of those who violate it.
