The notification process outlined here is consistent with the process set forth by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (the text of which can be found at the U.S. Copyright Office Website, http://www.copyright.gov).
If anyone believes that material on a website hosted by Us infringes their copyright, that person may send us a written notice as described below. We will attempt to remove or disable the allegedly infringing material. We will then promptly notify the user who posted the allegedly infringement material. That user then has the right to request that the material be reinstated or re-enabled. If they properly make such a request, We will reinstate or re-enable the material unless and until the two parties jointly ask Us to remove it or a court orders us to remove it.
Only copyright owners can report a suspected infringement to Us. If you are not the copyright owner (or the authorized representative of the owner) you cannot report a suspected infringement to Us. If you believe that any content on a website infringes another party's copyright, you should advise the copyright owner directly.
To file a notice of infringement with Us, you must provide a written communication (by email or regular mail) that sets out the information specified in the list below. Please note that you will be liable for damages (including costs and attorney's fees) if you materially misrepresent that material is infringing your copyright(s). Accordingly, if you are not sure if you are the proper copyright holder or if copyright laws protect the material, we suggest that you first contact a lawyer.

The provider of the allegedly infringing content may make a counter notification pursuant to sections 512(g)(2) and (3) of the US Copyright Act.

Please note that you will be liable for damages (including costs and attorneys' fees) if you materially misrepresent that a product or activity is not infringing the copyrights of others. Accordingly, if you are not sure whether certain material infringes the copyrights of others, we suggest that you first contact a lawyer.

Upon receiving a proper counter notification, We will provide the person who sent the original infringement notification with a copy of the counter notification, and inform that person that We will replace the removed material and cease disabling access to it not less than ten (10), nor more than fourteen (14), business days following receipt of the counter notice, unless our copyright agent first receives notice from the person who submitted the original infringement notification that such person has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the subscriber from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on Our system, pursuant to section 512(g)(2)(c).
It is Our policy to provide for the termination, in appropriate circumstances, of Our customers and account holders who repeatedly violate this policy or are repeat infringers of copyrighted works, trademarks or any other intellectual property.
If you use Our Purchased Services, We reserve the right to charge You a processing fee to cover the increasing cost of processing abuse claims for each instance of notification received from a legitimate copyright holder.
