How do I file a DMCA complaint?
Copyright Infringement Notification
To file a copyright infringement notification with us, you will need to
send a written communication that includes substantially the following
(please consult your legal counsel or see Section 512(c)(3) of the Copyright
Act to confirm these requirements):
- A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on
behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed,
or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered
by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that
site.
- Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or
to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or
access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient
to permit the service provider to locate the material. Providing URLs
in the body of an email is the best way to help us locate content quickly.
- Information reasonably sufficient to permit the service provider to
contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number,
and, if available, an electronic mail address at which the complaining
party may be contacted.
- A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that
use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by
the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and
under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to
act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
Such written notice should be sent to our designated agent as follows:

misrepresents that material or activity is infringing may be subject to
liability.
