Understanding the DMCA
The DMCA is designed to protect the rights of content creators by providing a legal framework for addressing copyright infringement on the internet. It specifically targets websites where the owners may not be aware of who contributed each piece of content or those that act as platforms for user-generated content.
Our Policy
We have a clear policy for responding to DMCA notices and take appropriate action to resolve any claims of copyright infringement. If we have unintentionally included content that rightfully belongs to you or your organization, we apologize for the oversight and will take steps to prevent similar incidents in the future. Upon verification, we will remove the content from our website within three business days.

Handling of DMCA Complaints
Upon receipt of a DMCA complaint, we will review the notice for accuracy, validity, and completeness. If the notice meets the requirements, we may remove or restrict access to the allegedly infringing material. We will also make a good faith effort to notify the affected user.
