Notice + Takedown Procedure

Introduction

This policy is intended to implement the procedures described in the Title II of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. Section 512 (DMCA) for the reporting of alleged copyright infringement. It is the policy of Sew Busty, LLC to respect the legitimate rights of copyrights owners, their agents and representatives. Users of any part of sewbusty.com are required to respect the legal protections provided by applicable copyright law. 

Sew Busty’s Designated Agent to receive notification of alleged infringement under the DMCA is:
Lindsie Rank
Email: lindsie@sewbusty.com

Upon receipt of notification of claimed infringement, we will follow the procedures outlined below and in the DCMA.

A notice of alleged copyright infringement to the designated agent must include the following;

  • An electronic or physical signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed;
  • 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 notice, a representative list of such works at that site;
  • 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 Sew Busty, LLC to locate the material;
  • Information reasonably sufficient to permit Sew Busty, LLC to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which the complaining party may be contacted;
  • A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the matter complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
  • A statement that the information in the notice 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.

Failure to include all of the above information may result in a delay of the processing or the DCMA notification.

If Sew Busty, LLC receives proper and legitimate notice of claimed copyright infringement, or otherwise becomes aware of facts and circumstances from which infringement is apparent, we will respond expeditiously by removing, or disabling access to, the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity. Sew Busty, LLC will comply with the appropriate provisions of the DMCA in the event a counter notification is received by our designated agent at lindsie@sewbusty.com.

A provider of content subject to a claim of infringement may make a counter notification pursuant to the DMCA. To file a counter notification with us, please provide the Sew Busty, LLC’s Designated Agent the following information:

  • 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;
  • Your name, address, and telephone number;
  • The following statement: “I consent to the jurisdiction of Federal District Court for the [insert the federal judicial district in which your address is located]”;
  • The following statement: “I will accept service of process from [insert the name of the person who submitted the infringement notification] or his/her agent”;
  • The following statement: “I swear, under penalty of perjury, that I have a good faith belief that the affected material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled”; and
  • Your signature, in physical or electronic form.

Upon receipt of such counter notification, Sew Busty, LLC will promptly provide the person who provided the original infringement notification with a copy of the counter notification, and inform that person that Sew Busty, LLC will replace the removed material or cease disabling access to it in 10 business days. Sew Busty, LLC will replace the removed material and cease disabling access to it not less than 10, nor more than 14, business days following receipt of the counter notice, unless our Designated Agent first receives notice from the person who submitted the original infringement notification that such person has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the subscriber from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on our system or network.

It is Sew Busty, LLC’s policy to accommodate and not interfere with standard technical measures used by copyright owners to identify or protect copyrighted works that the DMLP determines are reasonable under the circumstances.
