How to File a DMCA Notice

Who Can Issue a DMCA Notice? Anyone can — including you. Upon finding your content on another site that has published it without your knowledge or consent, you are well within your rights under the DMCA to issue a takedown notice to the ISP hosting that site.

How Do You Issue a DMCA Notice?

Another way the DMCA offers protection to publishers is by not requiring an attorney or any other legal entity to issue takedown notices. You can do this yourself, in letter format, as long as the notice contains certain pieces of information:

  • Location of the content infringing on your copyright: the URL where the plagiarized work is found; the title; any other identifying information
  • Location of the original content: the URL, the title
  • Your contact information: this allows the ISP to contact you while investigating your claim
  • A “good faith” statement: this basically means you have good reason to believe the use of the content you’re citing in your notice has not been authorized by the owner — you
  • An accuracy statement: your word that the information you’re including in your DMCA notice is true to the best of your knowledge
  • Your signature: it’s best if this is an actual manual signature and not an e-signature.

DMCA PROVISIONS The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998, found at 17 U.S.C. § 512 (“DMCA”), provides recourse for owners of copyrighted materials who believe that their rights under copyright law have been infringed upon on the Internet. Under the DMCA, the bona fide owner of copyrighted materials who has a good faith belief that their copyright has been infringed may contact not only the person or entity infringing on their copyright, but may also contact the designated agent of an Internet service provider to report alleged infringements of their protected works, when such alleged infringements appear on pages contained within the system of the Internet service provider (“ISP”). 

The owner of this website and the ISP are committed to complying with international trade law, international trade practices, and all global copyright laws. Upon receipt of a properly filed complaint under the DMCA, the owner and/or the ISP of this website will block access to the allegedly infringing material. The website owner and/or the ISP will forward a copy of the notification of claimed copyright infringement to the alleged infringer. Anyone who believes in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has wrongfully been filed against them, may submit a Counter notice to the website owner and/or the ISP.
