SnagPulse respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of our services to do the same. This page outlines our policy for responding to claims of copyright infringement under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), 17 U.S.C. § 512.
DMCA Agent Status
We have not yet registered a DMCA designated agent with the U.S. Copyright Office. We will register one when our business entity is established. In the meantime, all copyright-related notices should be sent to [email protected].
Filing a DMCA Takedown Notice
If you believe that content on snagpulse.com infringes your copyright, please send a written notice to [email protected] that includes all of the following (per 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)):
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed.
- Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing, including the URL(s) where it appears on our site.
- Your contact information: name, address, telephone number, and email address.
- A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notification is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of the owner.
Counter-Notification
If you believe your content was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may file a counter-notification to [email protected] containing:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the material that was removed and the location where it previously appeared.
- A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
- Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the federal court in your district (or, if outside the U.S., any judicial district in which SnagPulse may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the complaining party.
Upon receiving a valid counter-notification, we will forward it to the original complainant and restore the removed material within 10-14 business days unless the complainant files a court action.
Repeat Infringer Policy
In accordance with the DMCA, SnagPulse will terminate the accounts and/or access of users who are determined to be repeat infringers. A repeat infringer is a user who has been the subject of more than two valid DMCA takedown notices.
Good Faith
Please be aware that under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or that it was removed by mistake, may be subject to liability for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees.
