DMCA Policy of Overly Controlling Or Protective

At Overly Controlling Or Protective, we maintain strict control over the content hosted on our platforms and rigorously enforce compliance with intellectual property laws. This includes our unwavering commitment to respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and other applicable laws.

This policy outlines the procedure for submitting notices of alleged infringement and for submitting counter-notices regarding content that has been removed. We reserve the absolute right to remove any content at our sole discretion and to terminate accounts of repeat infringers, or indeed, any account we deem necessary to control our platform effectively.

Filing a DMCA Takedown Notice

If you believe that your copyrighted work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement and is accessible via our service, you must provide our designated Copyright Agent with a comprehensive written notice containing the following information. Failure to provide all required information will result in immediate rejection of your notice. We demand precision and completeness.

  1. Identification of the Copyrighted Work: You must provide a precise identification of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed. This includes specific titles, authors, and dates of creation, along with registration numbers if applicable.
  2. Identification of the Infringing Material: You must identify the material that you claim is infringing your copyrighted work and provide sufficiently precise information to permit us to locate the material on our platform. This includes the exact URL(s) where the material is found. Vague descriptions are unacceptable.
  3. Contact Information of the Complaining Party: Provide your full legal name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address. We require this information to verify your identity and to contact you directly.
  4. A Statement of Good Faith Belief: A declaration that you have a good faith belief that the use of the copyrighted material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  5. A Statement of Accuracy: A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
  6. Physical or Electronic Signature: A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf. This must be a legally valid signature.

Filing a DMCA Counter-Notification

If you believe that material you posted on our platform was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification to our designated Copyright Agent. This is your opportunity to explain your position, but understand that we retain the final say. Your counter-notification must include the following:

  • Identification of the Material Removed: Specify the material that was removed or to which access was disabled and the precise location (URL) at which the material appeared before it was removed or disabled.
  • A Statement of Good Faith Belief: A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled.
  • Consent to Jurisdiction: A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located, or if your address is outside of the U.S., for any judicial district in which Overly Controlling Or Protective may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original DMCA notification or an agent of such person. You will submit to our jurisdiction.
  • Your Contact Information: Your full legal name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
  • Physical or Electronic Signature: Your physical or electronic signature.
