DATAYARD COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT POLICY

As an OSP, if a complaint about possible copyright infringement is received DATAYARD must expeditiously remove the material or disable public access to the site.

If the DATAYARD subscriber whose material has been removed or disabled files a proper “counter notice” attesting to its lawful use of the material then DATAYARD, as the OSP, must notify the copyright owner and restore the material within 14 business days.

DATAYARD abides by the rules and regulations established in the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). For more specific information regarding the DMCA, including notice and counter notice requirements, please visit the U.S. Copyright Office web page on the matter.

• Your name, address, and electronic signature as the complaining party,
• Sufficient information to identify the copyrighted work or works,
• The infringing matter and its Internet location,
