16. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) Procedure
A. DMCA Complaints
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the "DMCA") provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under United States Copyright Law. If you believe in good faith that a Submission infringe your copyright, you (or your agent) may send Operator a notice requesting that the Submission be removed from the Websites, or access to it be blocked. To be effective under the DMCA, any notification of claimed infringement must be in a written communication that includes substantially the following and must include a certification made under penalty of perjury:
- A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed, as well as information sufficient for Operator to determine the legitimacy of the signature and the identity of the signatory;
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that site, including citation to the application copyright registrations where available;
- Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit Operator to locate the material, including a timestamp and visible identification of the material in a screenshot or comparable medium, with all metadata intact;
- Information reasonably sufficient to permit Operator to contact the complaining party, including an email address, telephone number, and, if available, physical mail address;
- 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
- 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.
DMCA Complaints must meet the then current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.copyright.gov/ for details. DMCA Complaints concerning materials on Websites should be sent to Operator’s Designated Agent to receive notification:
Ponte Vedra Corporation
ATTN: DMCA Complaint
200 Ponte Vedra Boulevard
Ponte Vedra Beach, FL32082
You may also send the required information by email to [email protected] with "DMCA Complaint" in the subject line.
Please note that you may be liable for damages (including costs and attorneys’ fees) if you materially misrepresent that material on the Websites is infringing the copyrights of others. If you are uncertain whether material on the Websites is infringing, Operator recommends seeking advice of an attorney.
B. DMCA Counter Notification
If Operator removes or disables access to content in response to a DMCA Complaint, Operator will make reasonable attempts to contact the owner of the removed or disabled content, or the owner’s agent. If Operator removed your material pursuant to another person’s DMCA Complaint and you contend that such material does not infringe upon another’s copyright rights, you may provide Operator with a counter-notification containing the following details which includes a certification made under penalty of perjury:
- Your physical or electronic signature, as well as information sufficient for Operator to determine the legitimacy of the signature and the identity of the signatory;
- Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;
- 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 of the material to be removed or disabled; and
- Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court located in Duval County, Florida, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification under the DMCA or an agent of such person.
You must send this notification to the following address:
Ponte Vedra Corporation
ATTN: DMCA Counter Notification
200 Ponte Vedra Boulevard
Ponte Vedra Beach, FL 32082
You may also send the required information by email to [email protected] with "DMCA Counter Notification" in the subject line.
In addition to the foregoing, the DMCA Counter Notification should contain all of the necessary information required by the DMCA, which can be found at http://www.copyright.gov/.
