Notice of Copyright Infringement

ShiftIT, Corp. (“ShiftIT”) respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same.

It is ShiftIT policy, in appropriate circumstances and at its discretion, to disable and/or terminate the accounts of users who repeatedly infringe or are repeatedly charged with infringing the copyrights or other intellectual property rights of others.

The Digital Millenium Copyright Act of 1998 (“DCMA”) is a United States copyright law that provides online service providers who have content on their sites to be relieved from liability for copyright infringement if they promptly remove the offending content once notified of an alleged infringement by the copyright owner or his or her designated agent. In accordance with the DCMA and in recognition of various international copyright laws, ShiftIT will respond expeditiously to notices sent to ShiftIT’s Designated Copyright Agent identified herein regarding alleged third-party copyright infringements on the ShiftIT website or other ShiftIT-owned and publicly accessible digital properties.

A copyright owner, person authorized to act on behalf of one, or person authorized to act under any exclusive right under copyright may submit allegations of copyright infringements on the Site(s) by completing the following DMCA Notice of Alleged Infringement and delivering it to ShiftIT Designated Copyright Agent identified herein. Upon receipt of this Notice, ShiftIT will expeditiously remove or block access to the allegedly infringing content, notify the alleged third-party infringer of the same, and provide the third-party an opportunity to submit a counter-notice to dispute the alleged infringement. If a counter-notice is submitted, ShiftIT will promptly forward it to the complainant and restore the removed or blocked content within 10-14 business days, unless the complainant submits evidence that it has filed a lawsuit against the alleged third-party infringer regarding the allegedly infringing content.
