Introduction
Marketing Approved (https://marketingapproved.com) (“the Platform”) respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users and members to do the same. As a platform that hosts user-generated and AI-assisted content, we voluntarily comply with the notice-and-takedown provisions of the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512), where applicable. This policy outlines the procedures for copyright holders to report alleged infringement and for affected users to respond.
1. Designated Copyright Agent
All notifications of claimed copyright infringement under the DMCA must be sent in writing to our Designated Agent at the following contact points:
– Email: Support@marketingapproved.com
*Note: To ensure full service provider protections under the DMCA, we encourage you to officially register this Designated Agent with the U.S. Copyright Office.*
2. Filing a DMCA Takedown Notice
If you believe that any material accessible on or through the Platform infringes a copyright you own or control, you may submit a written notification that contains the following information (as required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)):
1. An electronic or physical signature of the copyright owner or a person authorised to act on the owner’s behalf.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if a single notification covers multiple works, a representative list of such works.
3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material (such as the specific URL).
4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, such as your full name, mailing address, telephone number, and, if available, an email address.
5. A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
6. A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorised to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
Please submit the notice to our Designated Agent. We may not act on notices that fail to substantially comply with these requirements. Upon receipt of a valid notice, we will take whatever action we deem appropriate, which may include removing or disabling access to the challenged material.
3. Counter-Notification Procedure
If you believe that material you posted on the Platform was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification, you may submit a written counter-notification to our Designated Agent containing the following:
1. Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled, and the location where the material appeared before it was removed or disabled.
3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
4. Your full name, address, telephone number, and email address, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if your address is outside the United States, that you consent to the jurisdiction of any United States federal court in which the Platform may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original infringement notification or an agent of that person.
If we receive a valid counter-notification, we will promptly forward a copy to the original complaining party. Unless the complaining party files an action seeking a court order against the content provider, member, or user, the removed material may be replaced or access restored in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notification, at our sole discretion.
4. Repeat Infringer Policy
In accordance with the DMCA and other applicable law, Author Approved will, in appropriate circumstances, terminate the accounts of users who are determined to be repeat infringers. A repeat infringer includes any user who has had user content removed from the Platform more than twice or who has otherwise been notified of infringing activity more than twice. We reserve the right to terminate an account based on even a single, egregious instance of infringement.
