Copyright (DMCA) policy

Designated agent

Dropedia respects intellectual property rights and complies with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. Send notices of claimed copyright infringement to our designated agent:

What a notice must include

1. Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work you believe was infringed.
3. Identification of the material you believe is infringing, with enough detail for us to find it (for example the agency, the client portal and the file name).
4. Your name, address, telephone number and email address.
5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
6. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner's behalf.

We respond promptly, including by removing or disabling access to the material where appropriate, and we let the person who uploaded it know.

Counter-notification

If your content was removed and you believe that was a mistake or a misidentification, you may send our designated agent a counter-notification that includes: your physical or electronic signature; identification of the material that was removed and where it appeared before removal; a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification; and your name, address and telephone number, with a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your address (or, if you are outside the United States, any judicial district in which Dropedia may be found) and will accept service of process from the person who filed the original notice. As the law provides, we may restore the material 10 to 14 business days after receiving a valid counter-notification unless the complaining party tells us it has filed a court action.

Repeat infringers

We terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who repeatedly infringe copyrights. See also our Terms of Service (section 9) and Acceptable Use Policy.
