Digital Millennium Copyright Act Policy
Welcome to our website. We value the intellectual property rights of others and expect the same respect for our own rights. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), copyright owners or their agents can submit a takedown notice to our designated DMCA Agent. As an internet service provider, we are protected under the “safe harbor” provisions of the DMCA.

It is important to note that we may disclose the identity of the party submitting the claim to the alleged infringer. By submitting a claim, you consent to this disclosure.
