DMCA:

We require DMCA notices to be filed by letter or digitally signed email. The complaint must include full contact information in the complaint (including email address and phone number).

We may ignore incorrectly formatted notices that do not comply with the requirements of the DMCA. We may request written notification via regular mail, even if sent via digitally signed email, at Our sole discretion.
Regardless of whether We may or may not be liable for such infringement, Our response(s) to these notices may or may not include removing or suspending access to claimed infringing materials, and/or potentially terminating subscribers. If We disable or suspend 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 submit a counter notification. We may also document notices of alleged infringement upon which We act. In addition to Your request being forwarded to the person who provided the allegedly infringing content, a copy of this legal notice may be sent to a third-party which may publish and/or annotate it.

Copyright Infringement Notification:

To file a notice of copyright infringement with us, You must provide a written communication (by regular mail or digitally signed email) that sets forth the items specified below. Please note that You will be liable for damages (including costs and attorneys’ fees) if You materially misrepresent that a product or activity is infringing Your copyrights. Accordingly, if You are not sure whether material available online infringes Your copyright, we suggest that You first contact an attorney.
