20. DMCA Notice

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) provides a mechanism for copyright owners to protect their works from infringement. If you believe that your work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, you may submit a notification to us. To be effective, the notification must include your contact information, a description of the copyrighted work, a description of where the infringing material is located on The Service, and a statement that you have a good faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner.

21. Safe Harbor

Under the DMCA, service providers may qualify for safe harbor protection if they respond expeditiously to claims of copyright infringement. To maintain this protection, we must not have actual knowledge of infringing activity and must act quickly to remove or disable access to infringing material when we receive proper notification. We reserve the right to terminate the accounts of repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.

22. Counter-Notices

If you believe that your material has been removed by mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notice.
