At [Your Company Name], we respect the intellectual property rights of others and are committed to complying with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and other applicable laws related to copyright infringement. This DMCA Notice outlines how copyright owners can submit a notice of infringement and how we respond to such claims.
1. Notice of Copyright Infringement
If you are the copyright owner or an authorized agent of the copyright owner and believe that your copyrighted work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, you may submit a DMCA takedown notice to our designated copyright agent. Your notice must include the following information:
-
A description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed.
-
A description of the material that you claim is infringing, and information sufficient to enable us to locate it on our site (e.g., URL or content description).
-
Your contact information, including your name, address, telephone number, and email address.
-
A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
-
A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
-
Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Counter-Notification
If you believe that your content has been removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notice to our designated copyright agent. Your counter-notice must include the following:
-
Your full name, address, and telephone number.
-
A description of the material that has been removed or disabled and the location where the material appeared before it was removed or disabled.
-
A statement under penalty of perjury that you believe the material was removed or disabled due to a mistake or misidentification.
-
A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the district in which your address is located, or if your address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which [Your Company Name] may be found.
-
Your physical or electronic signature.
Once we receive a valid counter-notice, we may reinstate the removed content, unless the original complainant files a lawsuit to seek a court order preventing the reinstatement.
3. Repeat Infringer Policy
In accordance with the DMCA, we have implemented a policy to terminate the accounts of users who are found to be repeat infringers. We may also, at our discretion, suspend or terminate access to our website for users who have repeatedly infringed the copyrights of others.
4. Limitation of Liability
Please note that under the DMCA, we are not responsible for the content posted by users on our website. Our role is to act as a neutral service provider and remove or disable access to infringing content when we receive proper notification. By submitting a DMCA notice or counter-notice, you acknowledge that you understand that providing false information could subject you to liability for damages.
