DMCA COMPLIANCE

We will remove any offending Contribution that is reported to us pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. ÂA. § 512), also known as the DMCA. We will not restore such Contribution unless (a) you file a counter-notice that is the form required under the DCMCA, and (b) the complaining party then fails to initiate a court action, as the DCMCA requires. For making requests or providing notices under the DMCA, please contact us at . We discourage false claims of infringement the same as we discourage false claims of non-infringement, either of which may be subject to liability under the DCMCA. We therefore encourage you to seek the legal advice of counsel before seeking, or opposing, the removal of Contributions.

Reports of Offending Contributions. To make a report to us under the DMCA, please provide the following information in writing, as detailed in the DMCA at 17 U.S.C.A. § 512(c)(3): (i) the physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed; (ii) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that site; (iii) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material; (iv) your contact information, such as an address, telephone number, and e-mail address; (v) a statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; (vi) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

Counter-Notice. If you believe that a Contribution that was removed, or for which access was disabled, is not infringing, or that you have the authorization or a right to post and use the information, you may send a counter-notice containing the following information in writing as detailed in the DMCA at 17 U.S.C.A. § 512(g)(3): (i) your physical or electronic signature; (ii) 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 access to it was disabled; (iii) 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 of the material to be removed or disabled; (iv) your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court located in King County, Washington and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.

Upon receipt of a counter-notice, we may provide the complaining party with a copy of the counter-notice and inform them that the removed information may be replaced or cease disabling access to it in 10 business days. We may, at our discretion, replace or cease disabling access to the removed information between 10 to 14 business days or more after receiving the counter-notice, unless the complaining party has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the contributing party from posting the offending Contribution.
