Copyright Notice

This policy is part of the Terms of Service. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this policy shall have the meanings given to them in the Terms of Service.

This policy applies to all User Contributions posted to or made available on the Services which are subject to protection under United States Copyright laws. If you believe that another user has posted copyrighted material on the Services that infringes your U.S. copyright, please follow the process outlined below to notify us. If you are located elsewhere, please contact us for further information.

We take claims of copyright infringement seriously. If you believe any materials accessible on or through the Services infringe your copyright, you may request removal of those materials (or access to them) from the Services by submitting written notification to our Copyright Agent (designated below). We will respond to notices of alleged U.S. copyright infringement that comply with law only.

In accordance with the Online Copyright Infringement Liability Limitation Act of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512) ("DMCA"), the written notice (the "DMCA Notice") must include substantially the following:

• Your physical or electronic signature;
• Identification of the copyrighted work you believe to have been infringed or, if the claim involves multiple works on the Services, a representative list of such works;
• Identification of the material you believe to be infringing in a sufficiently precise manner to allow us to locate that material;
• Adequate information by which we can contact you (including your name, postal address, telephone number, and, if available, email address);
• A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the copyrighted material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;
• A statement that the information in the written notice is accurate; and
• A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

Our designated Copyright Agent to receive DMCA Notices is:

If you fail to comply with all of the requirements of Section 512(c)(3) of the DMCA, your DMCA Notice may not be effective.

Please be aware that if you knowingly materially misrepresent that a material or an activity on the Services is infringing your copyright, you may be held liable for damages (including costs and attorneys' fees) under Section 512(f) of the DMCA.

If you believe that material you posted on the Services was removed or access to it was disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may file a counter-notification with us (a "Counter-Notice") by submitting written notification to our copyright agent (identified above). Pursuant to the DMCA, the Counter-Notice must include substantially the following:

• Your physical or electronic signature;
• An 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 disabled;
• Adequate information by which we can contact you (including your name, postal address, telephone number, and, if available, email address);
• A statement under penalty of perjury by you that you have a good faith belief that the material identified above was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled; and
• A statement that you will consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or if you reside outside the United States for any judicial district in which the Services may be found) and that you will accept service from the person (or an agent of that person) who provided the Services with the complaint at issue.

The DMCA allows us to restore the removed content if the party filing the original DMCA Notice does not file a court action against you within ten business days of receiving the copy of your Counter-Notice.

Please be aware that if you knowingly materially misrepresent that a material or an activity on the Services was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may be held liable for damages (including costs and attorneys' fees) under Section 512(f) of the DMCA.
