Digital Millennium Copyright Act Policy

Welcome to our website (the ‘Site’). We value the intellectual property rights of others just as we expect others to respect our rights. Under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), a copyright owner or their representative can send us a notice to remove infringing material from our website. As an internet service provider, we are protected by the “safe harbor” provisions of the DMCA against claims of copyright infringement.

Notice of Infringement – Claim

1. An authorized signature by the copyright owner or their representative;
2. Identification of the copyrighted work that has been infringed;
3. Details of the infringing material and its location for easy removal;
4. Contact information of the copyright owner for communication purposes;
5. A statement confirming the unauthorized use of the material;
6. A statement expressing the accuracy of the claim and the authorization of the complaining party to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

Section 512(f) of Title 17 USC outlines penalties for misrepresentation in a copyright infringement claim under 17 USC §512(c)(3), including costs and attorney fees.

Please send all takedown notices via email for swift action.

Note that we may disclose the identity and information of any copyright infringer to the alleged party. By submitting a claim, you agree to this disclosure.

Counter Notification – Restoration of Material

If your material has been taken down due to a copyright claim, you can submit a written counter notification to our DMCA Agent. The notification must include:

1. Your signature;
2. A description of the removed material and its original location;
3. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the removal was a mistake;
4. Your contact information and consent to jurisdiction.

Submit your counter notice through email for efficient processing.
