4. If You Think Your Copyright Was Infringed
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the "DMCA") provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that
material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe that your
work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, or that your intellectual property rights
have been otherwise violated, please provide JPMS's Copyright Agent with the following information:
- an electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright
or other intellectual property interest;
- a description of the copyrighted work or other intellectual property that you claim has been infringed;
- a description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located, with enough detail that we may
find it;
- your address, telephone number, and email address;
- a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the
copyright or intellectual property owner, its agent, or the law;
- a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your notice is accurate and
that you are the copyright or intellectual property owner or authorized to act on the copyright or
intellectual property owner's behalf.
Any notification by a copyright owner or a person authorized to act on its behalf that fails to comply with
requirements of the DMCA shall not be considered sufficient notice and shall not be deemed to confer upon JPMS
actual knowledge of facts or circumstances from which infringing material or acts are evident. JPMS's agent for
notice of claims of copyright or other intellectual property infringement can be reached as follows:
