  • Your physical or electronic signature.

I have a good faith belief that use of the copyrighted material described in this notice is not authorized by the copyright owner and is not permissible under law. I declare, under penalty of perjury, that the information presented in this notice is accurate and that I have a good faith belief that the use is infringing.

If you fail to comply with all of the requirements of Section 512(c)(3) of the DMCA, your DMCA Notice may not be effective.

Please be aware that if you knowingly materially misrepresent that material or activity is infringing your copyright, you may be held liable for damages (including costs and attorneys’ fees) under Section 512(f) of the DMCA.

Counter-Notice Procedures

If you believe that material you provided to Sponsor (including a Contest Photo) was removed or access to it was disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may file a counter-notification with Sponsor (a “Counter-Notice”) by submitting written notification to Sponsor’s copyright agent designated above. Pursuant to the DMCA, the Counter-Notice must include substantially the following:

  • An 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 disabled.
  • Adequate information by which we can contact you (including your name, postal address, telephone number, and, if available, email address).
  • A statement under penalty of perjury by you that you have a good faith belief that the material identified above was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled.
  • A statement that you will consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located and that you will accept service from the person (or an agent of that person) who provided the initial DMCA Notice to Sponsor.

The DMCA allows Sponsor to restore the removed content if the party filing the original DMCA Notice does not file a court action against the party filing the Counter-Notice within ten (10) business days of receiving the copy of the Counter-Notice.

Please be aware that if you knowingly materially misrepresent that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may be held liable for damages (including costs and attorneys’ fees) under Section 512(f) of the DMCA.
