# DMCA COPYRIGHT POLICY

**Effective Date:** 2026-01-11

[Your Company Name] ("Company," "we," "us," or "our") respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of our website at [Your Website URL] to do the same.

In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 ("DMCA"), we will respond expeditiously to claims of copyright infringement committed using our website or services if such claims are reported to our designated copyright agent identified below.

## Notice of Copyright Infringement

If you believe that your copyrighted work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement and is accessible via our website or services, please notify our copyright agent as specified below. For your complaint to be valid under the DMCA, you must provide the following information in writing:

1. **Identification of the copyrighted work** that you claim has been infringed. If multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notification, you may provide a representative list of such works.

2. **Identification of the material** that you claim is infringing and needs to be removed, including a description of where it is located on our website. Please provide sufficient detail for us to locate the material (e.g., URL, page name, screenshot).

3. **Your contact information** so that we can contact you, including your full name, address, telephone number, and email address.

4. **A statement** that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.

5. **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 the copyright that is allegedly infringed.

6. **Your physical or electronic signature.**

### How to Submit a DMCA Notice

Please send all DMCA notices to our designated copyright agent:

**DMCA Agent:**
[Agent Name]
[Agent Address]
Email: [Contact Email]


Please note that the DMCA requires you to swear to the facts in your copyright complaint under penalty of perjury. It is a federal crime to intentionally lie in a sworn declaration. Filing a fraudulent DMCA notice could result in civil liability.

## Response to DMCA Notices

Upon receipt of a valid DMCA notice, we will:

1. Remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material
2. Notify the user who posted the content
3. Provide the user with a copy of the takedown notice
4. Take action within 10 business days

## Counter-Notification Procedure

If you believe that your content was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may file a counter-notification with our copyright agent by providing the following information in writing:

1. **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 disabled.

2. **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.

3. **Your name, address, and telephone number.**

4. **A statement** that you 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 service provider may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original DMCA notification or an agent of such person.

5. **Your physical or electronic signature.**

### Counter-Notice Review Process

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we will:

1. Provide a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party
2. Inform them that we will restore the removed content within 10-14 business days
3. Restore the content within 10-14 business days unless the copyright owner files a court action seeking an order to restrain the user from engaging in infringing activity

The original complaining party then has 10-14 business days to notify us that they have filed a court action. If we do not receive such notification, we may restore the removed content.

## Repeat Infringer Policy

In accordance with the DMCA and other applicable laws, we has adopted a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances and at our sole discretion, the accounts of users who are deemed to be repeat infringers.

We may also, at our sole discretion, limit access to our website and services and/or terminate the accounts of any users who infringe any intellectual property rights of others, whether or not there is any repeat infringement.

## Modifications to Policy

We reserve the right to modify, alter, or add to this policy, and all affected persons should regularly check back to stay current with our policy.

## No Waiver

Our failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive our right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches.

## Disclaimer

The information provided in this DMCA Policy should not be construed as legal advice. We encourage you to consult with a legal professional for advice regarding your specific situation.
