4. Provide sufficient contact information, including your name, mailing address, email address, and telephone number.
5. State your good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.

Counter Notification – Restoration of Material

If your material was removed following a copyright complaint, you may submit a written counter notification to our DMCA Agent requesting its restoration. Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3), your counter notification must include substantially the following:

1. Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the removed material and the location where it appeared before removal or access was disabled.
3. A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that you believe in good faith that the removal or disabling of access resulted from a mistake or misidentification.
4. Your name, address, and telephone number. Include a statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your address. If you are outside the United States, consent to the jurisdiction of a federal district court where the service provider may be found. Also state that you will accept service of process from the party that submitted the original infringement notification or that party’s agent.
5. Submit your counter notification through our Contact Us page. Email is recommended.
