DMCA Policy – Protecting Intellectual Property on DigitalMahdi

At DigitalMahdi, we take intellectual property rights seriously and expect our users to do the same. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) provides a framework for handling claims of copyright infringement, ensuring that original creators are protected while maintaining a fair digital environment.

Reporting Copyright Infringement

If you own copyrighted material or have the authority to act on behalf of the copyright owner and believe that someone is using your content without permission, you can submit a DMCA notice. To ensure a smooth process, your notice must include the following:

1. Description of the copyrighted work – Provide a clear identification of the original material you claim is being infringed.
2. Details of the infringing content – Specify the location (URL or other relevant details) of the content you believe is infringing.
3. Your contact information – Include your full name, title (if applicable), address, phone number, and email.
4. Statement of good faith – A declaration such as: “I have a good faith belief that the use of the copyrighted material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law (e.g., fair use).”
5. Statement of accuracy – A confirmation like: “The information in this notice is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, I am the copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of the owner.”
6. Signature – A physical or electronic signature from the copyright holder or their representative.

Once you have all the required information, send your notice to info@digitalmahdi.com. Our team will review your claim and take appropriate action, which may include removing the infringing content or restricting access to it. In cases of repeated violations, we may disable or terminate the account(s) involved.

Filing a DMCA Counter-Notice

If your content was removed due to a DMCA claim and you believe it was taken down by mistake or misidentification, you have the right to submit a counter-notice. This is a legal document, and it must contain the following:

1. Your contact information – Full name, title (if applicable), address, phone number, and email.
2. Identification of removed content – Clearly state what was removed and where it was previously located.
3. Statement under penalty of perjury – A declaration such as: “I swear, under penalty of perjury, that I have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled due to a mistake or misidentification.”
4. Consent to jurisdiction:
   • If based in the U.S.: “I consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which my provided address is located.”
   • If outside the U.S.: “I consent to the jurisdiction of any U.S. Federal District Court where DigitalMahdi operates.”
5. Acceptance of legal service – A statement such as: “I will accept service of process from the person who filed the original complaint or their agent.”
