DMCA COPYRIGHT POLICY

Introduction

This Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) Policy describes the procedures for reporting alleged copyright infringement on the FansyMe platform, available at www.fansyme.com. This policy applies solely to copyright infringement claims submitted by copyright owners or their authorised agents.

For assistance with reporting allegedly infringing content, please use our contact form. Customer service, billing, or account-related inquiries must not be submitted through the DMCA process.

Submitting a Notice of Claimed Infringement

If you believe that content available on FansyMe infringes your copyright, you may submit a written notification (“Notice”) to our Designated Agent. To be valid under the DMCA (17 U.S.C. § 512), your Notice must include the following information:

(a) An electronic or physical signature of a person authorised to act on behalf of the copyright owner;
(b) A clear description of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed;
(c) A description of the allegedly infringing material and its location on FansyMe, preferably including specific URLs;
(d) Your full name, address, telephone number, and email address;
(e) A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
(f) A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information provided is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorised to act on the owner’s behalf.

Notices that do not substantially comply with these requirements may be rejected or delayed.

Designated Agent for DMCA Notices

DMCA Notices must be sent exclusively to our Designated Agent:

Lawrence G. Walters, Esq.

195 W. Pine Ave.
Longwood, FL 32750-4104
Fax: +1 (407) 774-6151

Abuse of the DMCA Process

Submitting false or misleading DMCA Notices or counter-notifications, or otherwise abusing the DMCA procedures, may result in legal liability under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), including liability for damages, court costs, and attorneys’ fees. These procedures apply only to copyright infringement claims and must not be used for other disputes or complaints. FansyMe reserves the right to investigate and take appropriate action against misuse of the DMCA process.

How FansyMe Responds to DMCA Notices

Upon receipt of a valid DMCA Notice, FansyMe may remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material and, where appropriate, notify the affected User. FansyMe reserves the right to remove or restrict access to content where infringement is apparent or where required to comply with applicable law.

It is FansyMe’s policy, in appropriate circumstances, to terminate the accounts of Users who are repeat copyright infringers.

If a Notice is substantially compliant but incomplete, FansyMe or its Designated Agent may attempt to contact the complaining party to request clarification or additional information, without any obligation to do so.

Counter-Notifications

If content has been removed or disabled pursuant to a DMCA Notice and the affected User believes that the removal was the result of mistake or misidentification, the User may submit a counter-notification in accordance with 17 U.S.C. § 512(g). Any counter-notification must include the following information:

(a) Identification of the material that was removed or disabled and its prior location on FansyMe, preferably including URLs;
(b) A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the User has a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification;
(c) The User’s full name, address, telephone number, and email address;
(d) A statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the federal district court in the district where the User is located, or, if outside the United States, any judicial district in which FansyMe may be found, and consenting to service of process from the complaining party or their agent.

Counter-notifications must be signed and sent to the Designated Agent at the contact details listed above.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, FansyMe may forward it to the original complaining party. Unless FansyMe or its Designated Agent receives notice that the complaining party has filed a court action seeking injunctive relief, FansyMe may restore access to the material within ten to fourteen (10–14) business days after receipt of the counter-notification.

Language Requirement

All DMCA Notices and counter-notifications must be submitted in the English language. Notices submitted in other languages or scripts may be deemed non-compliant and disregarded.

Modifications to this Policy

FansyMe reserves the right to modify or update this DMCA Policy at any time. Users and rights holders are encouraged to review this page periodically for changes.

Customer Service Requests

The Designated Agent does not handle customer service matters. All account, billing, moderation, or platform-related inquiries must be directed to FansyMe through the appropriate support channels.
