Digital Millennium
Copyright Act (DMCA) Compliance
7leds abides by the federal Digital Millennium
Copyright Act (DMCA) by responding to notices of alleged infringement that
comply with the DMCA and other applicable laws. As part of our response, we may
remove or disable access to material residing on a site that is controlled or
operated by 7leds (such as http://www.7leds.com) that is claimed to be
infringing, in which case we will make a good-faith attempt to contact the
person who submitted the affected material so that they may make a counter
notification, also in accordance with the DMCA.
7leds does not control content hosted on third
party websites, and cannot remove content from sites it does not own or
control. If you are the copyright owner of content hosted on a third party
site, and you have not authorized the use of your content, please contact the
administrator of that website directly to have the content removed.
Before serving either a Notice of Infringing
Material or Counter-Notification, you may wish to contact a lawyer to better
understand your rights and obligations under the DMCA and other applicable
laws. The following notice requirements are intended to comply with 7leds’s
rights and obligations under the DMCA and, in particular, section 512(c), and
do not constitute legal advice.
NOTICE TO COPYRIGHT OWNERS:
If you believe material posted on or linked to or from this site is infringing,
please provide a written, signed notice of infringement (a "DMCA
Notice") to the designated agent at the 7leds, by fax or mail, at the
address provided on our contact page. Such DMCA Notice should be in the form
set forth below, which is consistent with the form suggested by the United
States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (the "DMCA").
Pursuant to federal law you may be held liable for
damages and attorneys' fees if you make any material misrepresentations in a
Notification. Thus, if you are not sure whether content located on or
accessible via a link from the Website infringes your copyright, you should
contact an attorney.
All Notifications should include the following:
- A physical or
electronic signature of 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
notification, 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 the service
provider to locate the material.
- Information
reasonably sufficient to permit the service provider 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 manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its
agent, or the law. A statement that the information in the notification 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.
Notifications should be sent to the address shown
on our contact page.
Please note: The DMCA provides that you may be
liable for damages (including costs and attorneys' fees) if you make a false or
bad faith allegation of copyright infringement by using this process. If you
are not sure what your rights are, or whether a copyright has been infringed,
you should check with a legal advisor first.
