We respect intellectual property rights and take every copyright complaint seriously. We follow a notice-and-takedown process consistent with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA, 17 U.S.C. § 512).

Submitting a takedown notice

If you are a copyright owner (or authorized to act on behalf of one) and believe content on this website infringes your rights, send a notice by email via our Contact page that includes:

  1. Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed (title, and a link to the original if available).

  2. The specific URL of the allegedly infringing material on our website.

  3. Your name, address, telephone number and email address.

  4. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law.

  5. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner’s behalf.

  6. Your physical or electronic signature.

How we respond

Once we receive a complete notice, we review it, remove or disable access to the material if infringement is confirmed, and notify the person who posted it (if applicable). Incomplete notices may take longer to process.

Counter-notices

If your content was removed and you believe this was a mistake, you may send a counter-notice explaining why, together with evidence of your right to use the material. We will review it and may restore the content as permitted by law.
