DMCA refers to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, more specifically, and more often, to the "safe harbor" provisions of the DMCA which provide a defense against a claim for leaving up or taking down content after receiving a request to take down content posted on a system that you operate or control - as long as you follow the required procedures.
The Safe Harbor provisions of the DMCA apply to any Online Service Provider hosting the content of others as long as the content is in fact the content of others. Examples include web hosting companies, social media, blogs, and other companies who'se customers can post on their sites. If your website does not host the content of third parties you may not need a DMCA Agent.
Once you initiate our services you may incorporate the InternetLitigators DMCA Agent address in the body of your terms and conditions or privacy policy to comply with the requirements of the DMCA. DESIGNATION OF INTERNETLITIGATORS WITHOUT AN ACCOUNT IS A VIOLATION OF OUR POLICIES AND WILL NOT COMPLY WITH THE DMCA.
As a DMCA Agent Services customer we evaluate each notice we receive on your behalf and if it is a proper notice we advise you of the exact content to remove by URL and provide you with the deadline for the removal of the content at that time.
If we receive a notice that is improper we automatically respond to the sender with information identifying the deficiency and instructions for providing a proper notice. There is no need to remove content where the notice does not comply. Most notices for some clients are non-compliant.
We provide you with a copy of the notice and our exclusive DMCA report letting you know the exact content to remove and the deadline for removal. We prepare notice for you to send to your customer advising of the removal and instructions for providing a counter notice if the customer wishes to do so. We receive all notices and counter notices and continue to keep you advised throughout the process of all removals, replacements and responses.
There are three plans to choose from depending upon the number of notices that you receive on a monthly basis. All three plans include registration, website content review, the selected number of notices (more are available as needed), all necessary correspondence from you to your customers, DMCA Reports for the removal of any content and instructions to you where any content is to be re-posted. We also provide direct communications in the event that you have any questions.
Yes absolutely. We find, however, that given the ambiguities involved and questions that arise as to whether a notice is compliant combined with the need for clear communications to customers and complaining parties that many companies simply prefer to let us handle the legal so they can focus on continuing to run their business.
