In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, Title 17 of the United States Code, Section 512(c), a copyright owner or their representative can send a takedown notice to us through our listed DMCA Agent. As an internet service provider, we are protected by the “safe harbor” provisions of the DMCA against such infringement claims.

Section 17 USC §512(f) specifies civil penalties for knowingly misrepresenting information in an infringement notification under 17 USC §512(c)(3).
Submit all takedown notices through our Contact page. Email is preferred for faster processing.
Please be aware that we may share your identity and details in any copyright infringement claim with the alleged infringer.
