Digital Millennium Copyright Act Policy
Welcome to our website (the ‘Site’). We value the rights of intellectual property and expect others to do the same. According to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), a copyright owner or their representative can send a takedown notice to us through our DMCA Agent. As an internet service provider, we are protected by the “safe harbor” provisions of the DMCA. To file an infringement claim, certain information must be provided:

- Identification of the copyrighted work alleged to be infringed;
- Details of the infringing material and the URL for identification;
- Contact information of the complaining party;
- A statement of good faith belief of unauthorized use;
- An assurance of the accuracy of the information provided.
Section 17 USC §512(f) outlines penalties for misrepresentation in infringement notifications.
Submit all takedown notices via our Contact page by email for quick attention.
Be aware that we may disclose your identity and information in any copyright infringement claim to the alleged infringer.
Counter Notification – Restoration of Material
If you receive a takedown notice due to copyright infringement, you can send a counter notification to have the material restored. The notification must include:
- Your signature;
- Description of the material taken down and its original location;
