Digital Millennium Copyright Act Policy
Welcome to our website. We value the rights of intellectual property and expect others to do the same for our rights. Under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, a copyright owner or their representative can request the removal of infringing material by submitting a takedown notice to our designated DMCA Agent. As an internet service provider, we are protected by the ‘safe harbor’ provisions of the DMCA that provide immunity from infringement claims.

Submit all takedown notices through our Contact page preferably via email for prompt handling.
By submitting a claim, you agree that your identity may be shared with the alleged infringer if necessary.
