Notification of Alleged Copyright Infringement

If you are a copyright owner, authorized to act on behalf of one, or are authorized to act under an exclusive right under copyright, please report alleged copyright infringements taking place on or through the Site by completing a DMCA Notice of Alleged Infringement and delivering it to TSG’s Designated Copyright Agent.

Please note that failing to comply with all of the requirements of this section and of 17 USC § 512(c)(3) may make your DMCA notice to be invalid.

Counter Notification – Restoration of Material

If you have received a notice of material being takedown because of a copyright infringement claim, you may provide us with a counter notification in an effort to have the material in question restored to the site. Said notification must be given in writing to our DMCA Agent and must contain substantially the following elements pursuant to 17 USC Section 512(g)(3):

• Your physical or electronic signature.
• A description of the material that has been taken down and the original location of the material before it was taken down.
• 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, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district in which the address is located (or if you are outside of the United States, that you consent to jurisdiction of any judicial district in which the service provider may be found), and that the you will accept service of process from the person or company who provided the original infringement notification.

If a Counter-Notice is received by the Copyright Agent, TSG may send a copy of the Counter-Notice to the original complaining party informing that person that it may replace the removed content or cease disabling it in ten business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against TSG or the person who has posted allegedly infringing content, the removed content may be replaced, or access to it restored, in ten business days or more after receipt of the Counter-Notice. 

Repeat Infringer Policy

TSG takes copyright infringement very seriously, and pursuant to the repeat infringer policy requirements of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, we maintain a list of DMCA notices from its copyright holders with its registered DMCA Agent. TSG makes a good faith effort to identify any repeat infringers on this list pursuant to the safe harbor requirements of the DMCA.

Regardless of whether TSG terminates access and/or use privileges of any person or entity, ‘repeat infringer’ or otherwise, TSG in no way waives any right to pursue any available remedy at law or in equity against copyright infringers or any other intellectual property rights violators, nor will TSG indemnify or provide legal representation to any alleged infringer in any action arising from the alleged infringer’s use of any TSG website, except as expressly described in this notice.
