Alleged Copyright Infringement Policy
It is OM’s policy to respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement that are made in compliance with the framework found in the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”). If you wish to provide notice of alleged copyright infringement, you must provide the necessary information in in accordance with the provisions set out below. OM may, in its sole and absolute discretion, terminate or suspend access to the Site, Content or Services or all or any portion thereof, or cancel the Account of any user who repeatedly infringes or who is repeatedly alleged to have infringed the copyright or other intellectual property rights of third parties. OM accommodates and does not interfere with standard digital rights management and other technical measures employed by copyright owners to protect their proprietary materials.
OM requires all notices of alleged copyright infringement (a “Copyright Notice”) to be in writing and delivered via regular mail or e-mail to OM in order to enable us to review and respond to your complaint as efficiently as possible while maintaining compliance with applicable laws. If you are providing a Copyright Notice you must provide the detailed information outlined below. If applicable, you should also be aware that you could be held liable for damages (including any costs and attorney’s fees) if you materially misrepresent that material or activity is infringing your copyright. If you are not certain whether the material or activity about which you are complaining infringes your copyright, you should obtain competent legal advice.
