Digital Millennium Copyright Act

To be effective, your notification of claimed infringement must be a written communication provided to the Copyright Agent that includes substantially the following:

• —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 be infringed, or if multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works.
• —Identification of the material that is claimed to infringe or to be the subject of infringing activity and that access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to locate the material.
• —Information reasonably sufficient to permit RendHQ to contact you, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address.
• —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.
• —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.

Following receipt of your communication, RendHQ may ask you to provide further or supplemental information, prior to removing any content, as RendHQ deems necessary to comply with the provisions of the DMCA. RendHQ may also provide the registered user who uploaded the allegedly infringing content with your contact details, in order for that person to be able to contact you directly and communicate with you regarding your notification.

As the registered user who uploaded the allegedly infringing content, you may submit a counter notification to the Copyright Agent. To be effective, your counter notification must be a written communication provided to the Copyright Agent that includes substantially the following:

• —Your physical or electronic signature.
• —Identification of the material to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before access to it was disabled.
• —A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be disabled.
• —Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Nevada, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification or an agent of such person.

In 10 business days after receipt of a counter notification, RendHQ will promptly provide the person who submitted the claimed copyright infringement notification with a copy of the counter notification, and will inform that person that RendHQ will replace the removed material, or cease disabling access to that material.

RendHQ will then replace the removed material and cease disabling access to it between 10 and 14 business days following receipt of the counter notification, unless the Copyright Agent first receives notice from the person who notified RendHQ of the claimed copyright infringement that such person has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the registered user from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material.

RendHQ may deny or cancel any individual use of its website, web application or catalog, or terminate your user account, if RendHQ determines in its sole discretion that you are a repeat infringer. A repeat infringer is a user who has been notified of infringing activity more than once or a user that has had his or her uploaded material removed more than once. RendHQ may decide, at its sole discretion, and at any time, that sufficient reason exists for the immediate termination of your account. RendHQ may notify you that it canceled your account by sending a message to the e-mail address that you provided during the registration process. Such notification will come into effect immediately.

If you are unsure whether the material you are reporting is in fact infringing, or whether you are the actual rights holder, you may wish to contact an attorney before filing a notification with us.
