Introduction
Jackerman.us is committed to respecting the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. If you believe that any content on our website infringes your copyright, you may submit a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) takedown notice. The DMCA provides a process for copyright holders to request the removal of infringing content from websites.
This page describes how copyright holders can file a DMCA notice with us and outlines the process for addressing such claims.
What is DMCA?
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) is a U.S. law enacted to protect copyrighted content on the internet. The DMCA provides a legal framework for addressing copyright infringement by allowing copyright holders to request the removal of infringing content.
When a valid DMCA notice is filed, website operators, such as Jackerman.us, are legally required to remove the infringing content to avoid liability. This notice also provides a mechanism for users to file counterclaims if they believe the content was removed incorrectly.
Submitting a DMCA Takedown Notice
If you believe that your copyrighted work has been infringed upon on Jackerman.us, please send a DMCA takedown notice to our designated Copyright Agent. To ensure a valid notice, your submission should contain the following information:
- Your contact information: Include your name, address, phone number, and email address.
- Identification of the copyrighted work: Clearly describe the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed. If multiple works are being infringed, you may provide a representative list of those works.
- Identification of the infringing material: Provide the location (URL) of the allegedly infringing content. Be as specific as possible in identifying the content.
- A statement of good faith belief: Include a statement that you believe in good faith that the use of the material described above is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement of accuracy: Include a statement that the information in the notice is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
- Your signature: Provide your physical or electronic signature.
You can send your DMCA takedown notice to us by email at admin@jackerman.us or through our official contact form.
What Happens After You Submit a DMCA Notice?
Once we receive a valid DMCA takedown notice, we will promptly review the request and take appropriate action, which may include removing or disabling access to the allegedly infringing content. We may also notify the user who uploaded the infringing content, providing them with an opportunity to file a counter-notice if they believe the content was removed in error.
We strive to process DMCA notices and takedown requests promptly to ensure that copyright holders’ rights are respected and that users are aware of any actions taken regarding their content.
Counter-Notification Process
If you are the user who uploaded the allegedly infringing content and you believe that your content was removed due to a mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification. To file a counter-notification, please send the following information to our Copyright Agent at admin@jackerman.us:
- Your contact information: Include your name, address, phone number, and email address.
- Identification of the material removed or disabled: Provide the URL(s) of the content that was removed or disabled.
- A statement of good faith belief: Include a statement that you believe in good faith that the material was removed due to a mistake or misidentification of the material.
- Your signature: Provide your physical or electronic signature.
Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we will forward it to the original copyright claimant, who has 10-14 business days to inform us of any legal action they intend to take. If no legal action is initiated within that timeframe, we may restore the content to the site.
Repeat Infringer Policy
In accordance with the DMCA, Jackerman.us reserves the right to terminate the accounts of users who are found to be repeat infringers. A repeat infringer is someone who repeatedly posts infringing content, despite receiving multiple notices.
If you are a copyright holder and believe that a user has repeatedly infringed upon your intellectual property, please inform us, and we will take appropriate action as required by law.
Limitation of Liability
Under the DMCA, website owners like Jackerman.us are not held liable for infringing content posted by users, provided that they follow the proper takedown procedures upon receiving a valid DMCA notice. By submitting a takedown notice, you agree to indemnify Jackerman.us against any claims, damages, or expenses arising from the removal of content under the DMCA process.
Jackerman.us makes no claims to ownership of user-submitted content and relies on users to ensure that they have the proper rights to share the material they upload.
