Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) Notice

Open Metal, Inc. (“Company”) reserves the right to determine, in its sole discretion, the validity of claim.

 

Company’s products, services, websites, applications and/or tools permit customers to host and make content available over the Internet. Although Company does not affirmatively screen any customer content, and does not tolerate infringing material on its equipment, it may, in its sole discretion and without any legal obligation to do so remove the content, and/or limit access to the content that may infringe upon the rights of a third party. 

Before Company can take any action regarding a claim, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) requires that a proper notice of claimed infringement be submitted, which must contain all of the following information: 

  1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed (i.e., merging a scanned handwritten signature into the electronic text or using public-key encryption technology); 
  2. A reasonably detailed description of the alleged infringing material, or, if multiple copyrighted works are alleged to be infringing, a representative list of such works on this website;
  3. A reasonably detailed description of where the alleged infringing material is located on this website;
  4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which the complaining party may be contacted;
  5. 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; and 
  6. 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.

 

Please note that perjury is deliberately giving false testimony; the act or crime of knowingly making a false statement (as about a material matter) while under oath or bound by an affirmation or other officially prescribed declaration that what one says, writes, or claims is true. 

 

Each complaining party must submit a separate claim for each claim of infringement. Please provide all of the requested information, signed under penalty of perjury. Company cannot and will not act on this matter until all of the requested information is provided.
