Please send this information to our designated copyright agent at [email protected].
If we receive a valid notice of alleged copyright infringement, we will respond promptly by disabling access to the infringing material and removing or disabling all links to the infringing material. We will also take reasonable steps to promptly notify the user who posted the material that we have removed or disabled access to the material.
If you believe that your material has been removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may file a counter-notice with our designated copyright agent at [email protected]. The counter-notice must include the following information:
- Your physical or electronic signature;
- Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or disabled;
- A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification;
- Your name, address, telephone number, and email address; and
A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located, or if your address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which the service provider may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original complaint or an agent of such person.
Upon receipt of a valid counter-notice, we will promptly provide the person who filed the original complaint with a copy of the counter-notice and inform that person that we will replace the removed material or cease disabling access to it in 10 business days. We will then replace the removed material or cease disabling access to it in not less than 10, nor more than 14, business days following receipt of the counter-notice, unless our designated copyright agent first receives notice from the person who filed the original complaint that such person has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the user from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on our website.
Please note that the above-described procedures are exclusively for reporting and addressing claims of copyright infringement. We do not process or respond to any other type of intellectual property claims through this process.
