Digital Millennium Copyright Act Policy
Welcome to our website. We value and respect the intellectual property rights of others, just as we expect others to respect our rights. According to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), copyright owners or their agents can submit a takedown notice to us through our designated DMCA Agent. As an internet service provider, we can claim immunity from infringement claims under the “safe harbor” provisions of the DMCA. To submit an infringement claim to us, you need to provide certain information.

Please send all takedown notices through our Contact page. Email submissions receive prompt attention.
When submitting a claim, be aware that we may share your information with the alleged infringer.
