DMCA Policy

"Abolish Jones Act" respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), we will respond promptly to notices of alleged copyright infringement that are properly provided to us.

This policy outlines the procedure for filing copyright infringement notices and counter-notifications with "Abolish Jones Act".

Filing a Copyright Infringement Notice

If you believe that content available on "Abolish Jones Act" infringes on your copyright, please send a written notice of infringement to our designated Copyright Agent. Your notice must include all of the following information to be considered valid:

  1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that site.
  3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit "Abolish Jones Act" to locate the material (e.g., the URL(s) of the infringing material).
  4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit "Abolish Jones Act" to contact you, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which the complaining party may be contacted.
  5. A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized 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 the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

Please note that under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing may be subject to liability for damages.

Filing a Counter-Notification

If your content has been removed from "Abolish Jones Act" as a result of a copyright infringement notice, and you believe that your content was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notification to our designated Copyright Agent. Your counter-notification must include all of the following information:

  • Your physical or electronic signature.
  • 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 to it was disabled.
  • 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 of the material to be removed or disabled.
  • Your name, address, and telephone number.
  • 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 of the United States, for any judicial district in which "Abolish Jones Act" may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original DMCA notification or an agent of such person.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, "Abolish Jones Act" will forward it to the party who submitted the original DMCA notice. If the complaining party does not file an action seeking a court order against the content provider within 10-14 business days of receiving the counter-notification, "Abolish Jones Act" may, at its sole discretion, replace or restore the removed material.
