DMCA Policy

This Digital Millennium Copyright Act Policy (“Policy”) applies to the japjipath.com website (“Website” or “Service”) and any related products and services (collectively, “Services”). It outlines how the Website operator (“Operator,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) addresses copyright infringement notifications and how you (“you” or “your”) may submit a copyright infringement complaint.

Importance of Intellectual Property

We are committed to protecting intellectual property and expect our users and their authorized agents to do the same. We comply with the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) of 1998 by promptly responding to valid notifications of alleged copyright infringement.

Before Submitting a Complaint

If you’re uncertain whether the material you’re reporting infringes your copyright, consider consulting an attorney before filing a notification.

Note: The DMCA requires your personal information in the notification. If privacy is a concern, you may appoint an agent to report infringing material on your behalf.

Submitting a Copyright Infringement Notification

If you are a copyright owner or an authorized agent and believe material on our Services infringes your copyrights, you may submit a written DMCA copyright infringement notification (“Notification”) to our designated agent:

  • Email: support@japjipath.com
  • Attn: DMCA Compliance Team

Your Notification must comply with DMCA requirements under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), including:

  1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or authorized agent.
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work(s) claimed to be infringed.
  3. Identification of the infringing material and sufficient information to locate it (e.g., the specific URL).
  4. Your contact information (name, address, phone number, and email).
  5. A statement of good faith belief that the material’s use is not authorized by the copyright owner, their agent, or the law.
  6. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the Notification is accurate and you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

Review and Response Process

We will review your Notification for accuracy, validity, and completeness. If it meets DMCA requirements:

  • We may remove or restrict access to the allegedly infringing material.
  • We will make a good faith effort to notify the affected user about the removal.
  • If a Notification fails to meet requirements, we reserve the right to take no action, though we may address the issue at our discretion.

Counter-Notifications

If a user believes their material was wrongly removed, they may submit a counter-notification. We will forward valid counter-notifications to the original complainant. We may restore the material after 10-14 business days unless the copyright owner provides notice that they have filed a court action seeking an injunction.

Repeat Infringers

We maintain a policy to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users identified as repeat infringers (those with two or more valid DMCA Notices against them).

Policy Changes

We may update this Policy at our discretion. Changes will be posted on the Website’s main page. Continued use of the Website or Services after updates constitutes consent to the revised Policy.
