REPORTING CLAIMS OF COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT; NOTICE AND TAKEDOWN PROCEDURE UNDER THIS POLICY It is the Company’s policy to expeditiously respond to clear and proper notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”). This Policy describes the information that should be present in these notices to the Company. It is designed to make submitting notices of alleged infringement to the Company as straightforward as possible while reducing the number of notices that we receive that are fraudulent or difficult to understand or verify.
The form of notice of alleged infringement specified below is consistent with the form suggested by the DMCA (the text of which can be found at the U.S. Copyright Office Web Site, http://www.copyright.gov).

However, if the Company receives proper notification of claimed copyright infringement pursuant to this DMCA Policy, our response to these notices will include removing or disabling access to content or material claimed to be the subject of infringing activity and/or terminating subscribers, regardless of whether we may be liable for such infringement under United States law or the laws of another jurisdiction.
If we remove or disable access in response to such a notice, we will make a good-faith attempt to contact the owner or administrator of the affected site or content so that they may make a counter notification pursuant to Sections 512(g)(2) and (3) of the DMCA.
