Digital Millennium Copyright Act Policy
Welcome to our website (the ‘Site’). We value the intellectual property rights of others just as we expect others to respect our rights. Under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, copyright owners or their representatives can submit a takedown notice to our DMCA Agent to report any infringement. As an internet service provider, we are protected by the “safe harbor” provisions of the DMCA which gives us immunity from infringement claims.

- Details of the infringing material and information to help locate it;
- Contact information of the complaining party;

- A statement under penalty of perjury that the information provided is accurate.
According to Title 17 USC Section 512(f), there are penalties for misrepresenting information in an infringement notification.
All takedown notices should be sent through our Contact page via email for quick response.
By submitting a claim, you agree that your identity may be shared with the alleged infringer.
