This Copyright Policy is part of the IMYN Terms of Service. In this policy, "Company" means SOY MEDIA, and "Service" means IMYN and all related services. The Company complies with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA).
1. Reporting infringement
If you believe that content on the Service infringes your copyright, please send a notice (a "DMCA Notice") with all of the information in item 2 to our Copyright Agent by mail or email. The Company may remove or disable access to the reported content and, where appropriate, terminate the accounts of repeat infringers. The Company will also send a copy of the DMCA Notice to the affected User, who may submit a counter notice under item 3.
2. What a DMCA Notice must include
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act for them
- A description of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed (or a representative list if there are several works)
- A description of the content claimed to be infringing and where it is located (for example, a URL), in enough detail for us to find it
- Your name, address, phone number, and email address
- A statement that you believe in good faith that the use of the content is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act for them
Under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, anyone who knowingly makes false statements in a DMCA Notice may be liable for damages, including attorneys' fees.
3. Counter notice
If your content was removed because of a DMCA Notice and you believe in good faith that it was removed by mistake or that you have permission to use it, you may send a counter notice to our Copyright Agent with the following:
- Your physical or electronic signature
- A description of the removed content and where it appeared before it was removed (for example, a URL)
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you believe in good faith that the content was removed by mistake or misidentification
- Your name, address, and phone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the U.S. federal district court for the district where you live (or, if you live outside the United States, any district where the Company may be found), and that you will accept legal papers from the person who sent the DMCA Notice or their agent
A copy of your counter notice, including your name and contact information, will be sent to the person who submitted the DMCA Notice. If that person does not file a lawsuit against you within 10 business days of receiving your counter notice, the Company may restore the removed content.
