Digital Millenium Copyright Act Policy and Contacts
Digital Millennium Copyright Act
Our policy is to respond to notices of alleged infringement which comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (described at the U.S. Copyright Office Web Site) as well as other applicable intellectual property laws.
Responses may include removal or disabling access to material claimed to be the subject of infringing activity and/or terminating accounts. If we remove or disable access in response to such a notice, we will make a good-faith attempt to contact the owner or administrator of the affected site or content so they may make a counter notification pursuant to sections 512(g)(2) and (3) of that Act.
It is also our policy to document all notices of alleged infringement on which we act. As with all legal notices, a copy of the notice will be sent to one or more third parties who may make it publicly available.
