In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 ("DMCA"), we will respond expeditiously to claims of copyright infringement that are reported to our designated copyright agent.
This policy outlines our procedures for handling DMCA takedown notices and counter-notifications. We are committed to complying with U.S. copyright law while also protecting the rights of our users who post content in good faith.
2. Reporting Copyright Infringement

Required Information for DMCA Takedown Notice:

- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed. If multiple works are covered by a single notification, provide a representative list.
- Identification of the infringing material and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material (e.g., direct URL links to the specific pages).
- Your contact information, including your address, telephone number, and email address.
- A statement that you have 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 you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
Warning: Under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing may be subject to liability for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees.

Counter-Notification Requirements
Your counter-notification must include:
