Copyright and DMCA policy

Our policy

We respect intellectual property. We respond to notices that comply with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. 512) and to equivalent notices under other laws.

How to send a notice

Use the contact form and choose the topic "Copyright notice". The form asks for each item below. Your notice must include:

• your physical or electronic signature;
• identification of the copyrighted work you say is infringed;
• identification of the material on this site, with its URL;
• your contact information;
• a statement that you believe in good faith the use is not authorized by the owner, its agent or the law;
• a statement that the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act for the owner.

Counter-notification

If material you provided was removed and you believe that was a mistake, send a counter-notification through the contact form including:

• your physical or electronic signature;
• identification of the material removed and where it appeared;
• a statement under penalty of perjury that you believe in good faith it was removed by mistake or misidentification;
• your name, address and phone number, and your consent to the jurisdiction of the relevant court and to accept service from the person who sent the original notice.

We may restore the material 10 to 14 business days after receiving a valid counter-notification, unless the complainant tells us they have filed a court action.

False claims

Under 17 U.S.C. 512(f), anyone who knowingly misrepresents that material is infringing, or was removed by mistake, may be liable for damages.

Repeat infringers

The site has no user uploads. If we ever publish contributed material, we will stop accepting it from anyone who repeatedly infringes.

Forwarding notices

We may forward a notice or counter-notification to the party concerned. See our Privacy Policy for how we handle the details you send.
