DIGITAL MILLENIUM COPYRIGHT ACT (DMCA)

(Last updated 4/1/2007)

Copyright Infringement Notification Policy (DMCA Takedown)

It is our policy to respond to notices of alleged infringement that comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (found at the U.S. Copyright Office Web Site, http://www.copyright.gov/) and other applicable intellectual property laws, which may include removing or disabling access to material claimed to be the subject of infringing activity. If we remove or disable access to comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, we will make a good-faith attempt to contact the owner or administrator of each affected site so that they may make a counter notification pursuant to sections 512(g)(2) and (3) of that Act.

Repeat Infringers

BoeBro Ventures, Inc. respects the intellectual property of others, and we ask our users to do the same. BoeBro Ventures, Inc. may, in appropriate circumstances and at its discretion, disable and/or terminate the accounts of users who are found to be repeat infringers.

How to Report Claims of Infringement

DMCA section (512) (f) defines penalties for knowingly misrepresenting a claim. Anyone who fraudulently claims copyright infringement or fraudulently claims that non-infringing material was wrongly removed, or that access to it was wrongfully disabled, is liable to anyone who suffers any damages because of that misrepresentation, including court costs and attorney's fees. Accordingly, if you are not sure whether certain material infringes the copyrights of others, we suggest that you first contact an attorney.
