12. DMCA Policy

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) provides a mechanism for copyright owners to notify online service providers about infringing content. If you believe that any content on The Service infringes your copyright, you may submit a notice to our designated copyright agent. To be effective, the notice must include the following information: (i) a physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner; (ii) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed; (iii) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing and where it is located on The Service; (iv) your contact information, including your address, telephone number, and email address; (v) 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; and (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.

Upon receiving a valid DMCA notice, we will take appropriate action to remove or disable access to the infringing material. We also reserve the right to terminate the accounts of repeat infringers. If you believe that your material has been removed by mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notice to our designated copyright agent. A counter-notice must include your name, address, telephone number, and a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification.
