DMCA Takedown Procedure
1. Notice of claimed infringement
If you believe content on the Services infringes a copyright you own or are authorized to enforce, you may submit a written notice to our designated agent at info@dsohire.com. The notice must comply with the requirements of 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) and include:
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on the copyright owner's behalf.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works).
- Identification of the material claimed to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity, sufficient to permit us to locate the material, such as the URL of the page on the Services where the material appears.
- Information sufficient to permit us to contact the complaining party, including a mailing address, telephone number, and, if available, an email address.
- A statement that the complaining party 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.
- A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
2. Designated DMCA agent
Notices of claimed infringement should be sent to:
DSO Hire LLC, DMCA Designated Agent 4018 West 74th Street, Prairie Village, Kansas 66208, USA info@dsohire.com
(DSO Hire LLC will register a designated agent with the U.S. Copyright Office before user-generated content goes live on the Services.)
3. Counter-notification
If material you posted has been removed in response to a DMCA notice and you believe the removal was the result of mistake or misidentification, you may submit a written counter-notification to info@dsohire.com. A valid counter-notification must include:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the material that was removed and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed.
- A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief that the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
- Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if your address is outside the United States, for the District of Kansas), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of claimed infringement or an agent of that person.
4. Restoration of material
On receipt of a valid counter-notification, we will forward it to the original complaining party. If the complaining party does not file an action seeking a court order against you within 10 to 14 business days, we may, in our discretion, restore the removed material.
5. Repeat infringer policy
DSO Hire LLC will, in appropriate circumstances and at our sole discretion, terminate the accounts of users who are repeat infringers of copyright. "Repeat infringer" generally means a user with two or more substantiated DMCA notices submitted against them.
6. Misrepresentations
Any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing, or that material was removed by mistake, may be liable for damages under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f).
