such notices may include removing or disabling access to the allegedly
infringing content, terminating the accounts of repeat infringers, and/or
making good-faith attempts to contact the user who posted the content at issue
so that he may, where appropriate, make a counter-notification.
21.2 If you believe that your work
has been used or copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement and
such infringement is hosted on the Services, on web sites linked to or from the
Services, or in connection with the Services or Materials, please provide,
pursuant to the DMCA, written notification via regular mail or via fax (not via
e-mail or phone) of claimed copyright infringement to ZOOMcatalog, which must
contain all of the following elements:
(a) A physical or electronic
signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the
copyright interest that is alleged to have been infringed;
(b) A description of the copyrighted
work(s) that you claim have been infringed and identification of what content
in such work(s) is claimed to be infringing and which you request to be removed
or access to which is to be disabled;
(c) A description of where the
content that you claim is infringing is located on the Services;
(d) Information sufficient to permit
ZOOMcatalog to contact you, such as your physical address, telephone number and
e-mail address;
(e) A statement by you that you have
a good faith belief that the use of the content identified in your notice in
the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or
the law; and
(f) A statement by you that the
information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you
are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on the copyright owner’s
behalf.
Before you file such a notification,
please carefully consider whether or not the use of copyrighted material at
issue is protected by the “fair use” doctrine, as you could be liable for costs
and attorneys’ fees should you file a takedown notice where there is no
infringing use. If you are unsure whether a use of your copyrighted material
constitutes infringement, please contact an attorney. In addition, you may wish
to consult publicly available reference materials.
21.3 If you believe access to your
content was disabled or removed by ZOOMcatalog as a result of an improper copyright
infringement notice, please provide, pursuant to the DMCA, written notification
via regular mail or via fax (not via e-mail or phone) to ZOOMcatalog, which
must contain all of the following elements:
(a) A physical or electronic
signature of the subscriber;
(b) Identification of the material
that was removed from the Services and the location of the Service on which the
material appeared before it was removed;
(c) 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 of the material to be
removed or disabled;
(d) Information sufficient to permit
ZOOMcatalog to contact you, such as your physical address, telephone number and
e-mail address; and
(e) A statement that you consent to
jurisdiction of the Federal District court for the district where you reside
(or of Boulder County, Colorado if you reside outside of the United Sates) and
that you will accept service of process from the person who provided
notification under DMCA subsection (c)(1)(C) or an agent of such person.
Before you file such a
counter-notification, please carefully consider whether or not the use of the
copyrighted material at issue is infringing, as you could be liable for costs
and attorneys’ fees in the event that a court determines your
counter-notification misrepresented that the material was removed by mistake.
If you are unsure whether use of the material at issue constitutes
infringement, please contact an attorney. In addition, you may wish to consult
publicly available reference materials.
