DMCA
We comply fully with the Notice and Takedown requirements of 17 U.S.C. §512, commonly known as the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”).
Our website qualifies as a “Service Provider” under the DMCA, which entitles us to certain protections from copyright infringement claims, including the DMCA’s Safe Harbor provisions.
This DMCA Policy explains how copyright owners may submit infringement notifications, how we respond, and how users may submit counter-notifications.
1. Notice of Claimed Infringement
If you believe that your copyrighted work has been copied, posted, uploaded, or made available on our website without authorization, you must provide a valid DMCA Notice that includes all of the following:
- A physical or electronic signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
- Identification of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed, or a representative list if multiple works are involved.
- Identification of the specific material that is claimed to be infringing, including the exact URL(s) on our website.
- Your full legal name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement that the information in your notice is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf.
2. Where to Send DMCA Notices
Submit all DMCA notifications to our designated agent:
Email: [email protected]
(Replace with your email if needed.)
Incomplete DMCA notices cannot be processed.
3. Takedown Procedure
Upon receiving a valid DMCA Notice:
- We will act expeditiously to remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material.
- We may notify the affected user or uploader of the removed content.
- We may forward the notice to the user who uploaded the material or publish it in accordance with DMCA requirements.
We reserve the right to remove any content at any time if it appears to infringe copyright, violate our Terms, or pose legal risk—even without a formal DMCA notice.
4. Counter-Notification Procedure
If your content was removed due to a DMCA Notice and you believe it was removed in error or misidentified, you may submit a Counter-Notification that includes:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the removed material, including the exact URL(s) where it previously appeared.
- A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
- Your name, address, telephone number, and email address.
- A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the courts in your country/state and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original DMCA notice.
Counter-notices must be sent to:
If we receive a valid counter-notification, we may restore the removed content unless the original complainant files a court action within 10–14 business days.
5. Repeat Infringer Policy
In accordance with the DMCA, we maintain a strict repeat infringer policy:
- Accounts of users determined to be repeat copyright infringers may be terminated.
- IP addresses may be blocked.
- Upload privileges may be permanently suspended.
We reserve the right to determine, in our sole discretion, what constitutes a repeat infringer.
6. Modifications to This Policy
We reserve the right to modify, update, or change this DMCA Policy at any time.
