8. Copyright Infringement Policy.
The policy outlined in this paragraph is intended to limit our liability for copyright
infringement pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"), 17 U.S.C.
Section 512(c), with respect to storage of materials on our website at the direction
of a user of our website. If you believe that any materials on our website or the
use thereof constitutes infringement of your copyrighted work, you must notify our
designated agent: Sid Hanna Saleh, Center for Services Marketing, Inc. at 300 Hess
Avenue, Building II, Golden, Colorado 80401, telephone 720.746.1900, email sid@csmhub.com.
To be effective under the DMCA, you or a person authorized to act on your behalf
must submit a notice of claimed infringement in writing to our designated agent.
Such notice must include substantially the following:
(a) a physical or electronic signature of you as owner of an exclusive right that
is allegedly infringed or the person authorized to act on your behalf ("claimant"),
(b) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or if
multiple copyrighted works at a single online website are covered by a single notification,
a representative list of such works at that site,
(c) 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 us to locate the material,
(d) information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact the claimant, such
as an address, telephone number and, if available, an email address at which the
claimant may be contacted,
(e) a statement that the claimant 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, and
(f) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under
penalty of perjury, that the claimant is the owner of an exclusive right that is
allegedly infringed or is authorized to act on such owner's behalf.
We reserve the right to refuse additional information or materials from any
user of our website who has posted allegedly infringing material, to delete such
material and to terminate such user's account.
If we receive a notification of alleged infringement that substantially complies
with the DMCA, as set forth above, we will investigate the matter and, if appropriate,
act expeditiously to remove or disable access to the material claimed to be infringing.
In addition, we will take reasonable steps promptly to notify the person who posted
the allegedly infringing material (the "respondent") that we have removed or disabled
access to such material. The respondent may then send to our designated agent a
counter-notification. If we receive a proper counter-notification, we will promptly
provide the claimant with a copy of the counter-notification and inform the claimant
that we will replace the removed material or cease disabling access to it in 10
business days unless our designated agent receives notice from the claimant prior
to such date that the claimant has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain
the respondent from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on
our system or network. If our designated agent does not receive timely notice that
such an action has been filed, we will replace the removed material and cease disabling
access to it not less than 10, nor more than 14, business days following our receipt
of the counter-notification. To be effective under the DMCA, the counter-notification
must be submitted in writing to our designated agent and include substantially the
following:
(a) a physical or electronic signature of the respondent,
(b) identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has
been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed
or access to it was disabled,
(c) a statement under penalty of perjury that the respondent has a good faith belief
that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification
of the material to be removed or disabled, and
(d) the respondent's name, address and telephone number and a statement that the
respondent consents to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial
district in which the address is located, or if the subscriber's address is outside
of the U.S., for any judicial district in which we may be found, and that the respondent
will accept service of process from the claimant or an agent of the claimant.
We recommend that you mark any notices and counter-notifications you send our
designated agent "Notice of Copyright Infringement under DMCA" and send such notices
via email and certified or overnight mail.
