AZMen.com (the "Company") respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998, the text of which may be found on the U.S. Copyright Office website at (https://www.copyright.gov/legislation/dmca.pdf), AZMen will respond expeditiously to claims of copyright infringement committed using the AZMen website (the "Site") if such claims are reported to AZMen's Designated Copyright Agent. AZMen treats valid DMCA take-down notices extremely seriously and processes notices during public holidays and weekends.
This policy is intended to implement the procedures set forth in 17 U.S.C. Section 512 and the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA") for the reporting of alleged copyright infringement. It is the policy of AZMen.com services (the "Company") to respect the legitimate rights of copyright owners, their agents, and representatives. Users of any part of the Company computing system are required to respect the legal protections provided by applicable copyright law.
To exercise your DMCA rights, you must send your Proper DMCA Notice to the following agent designated by Company (the "Designated Agent"). The contact information for AZMen's Designated Agent is:
Email address: [email protected]
This email address may be used only for copyright infringement claims - you will not receive a reply if the matter is not a copyright issue.
Please do not send other inquiries or requests to our designated copyright agent. Absent prior express permission, our designated copyright agent is not authorized to accept or waive service of formal legal process, and any agency relationship beyond that required to receive valid DMCA Notices or Counter-Notices (as defined below) is expressly disclaimed
Upon receipt of proper notification of claimed infringement, Company will follow the procedures outlined herein and in the DMCA. Please note that, due to security concerns, attachments cannot be accepted. Accordingly, any notification of infringement submitted electronically with an attachment will not be received or processed.
If you believe your copyrighted material has been used in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, you may file a complaint ("DMCA Notice") with us. The DMCA Notice must include the following elements:
Failure to include all of the above information may result in a delay of the processing or the DMCA notification. Please be aware that if you knowingly materially misrepresent that material or activity on AZMen is infringing your copyright, you may be held liable for damages (including costs and attorneys' fees) under Section 512(f) of the DMCA.
If you have received a DMCA Notice and believe that material you posted on [email protected] was removed or access to it was disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may file a counter-notification with us ("Counter-Notice"). Counter-Notices must be submitted by the original uploader of the content, or an agent authorized to act on their behalf. Counter-Notices must include the following:
We will not respond to counter-notifications that do not meet the requirements above. When we receive your Counter-Notice, we will forward it to the original claimant and inform them that the removed material may be restored after ten (10) business days but no later than fourteen (14) business days from the date we received your Counter-Notice, unless the original claimant informs us that they have filed a court action to restrain you from engaging in infringing activity related to the material in question.
Please note that submitting a Counter-Notice means your personal information will be disclosed to the original claimant.
In accordance with the DMCA and other applicable law, we have adopted a policy of terminating or disabling, in appropriate circumstances and at our sole discretion, the accounts of users who are deemed to be repeat infringers. We may also at our sole discretion limit access to AZMen, terminate or disable the accounts of any users who infringe any intellectual property rights of others, whether or not there is any repeat infringement.
It is our policy to accommodate and not interfere with standard technical measures used by copyright owners to identify or protect copyrighted works.
A copy of each legal notice we receive may be sent to the Lumen project (https://www.lumendatabase.org) for publication and annotation. Lumen will redact submitters' personal contact information. We may also publish similar information from your notice in future transparency reports.
