DMCA Policy

Gjaldskylda is committed to respecting the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. This DMCA Policy page outlines the procedures for reporting alleged copyright infringement and for filing a counter-notification if you believe your material was wrongly removed.

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) provides a mechanism for copyright holders to request the removal of material that they believe infringes their rights. Gjaldskylda will respond to valid notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the DMCA and other applicable laws.

Filing a DMCA Infringement Notice

If you are a copyright owner or an agent thereof and believe that any content hosted on Gjaldskylda's services infringes upon your copyrights, you may submit a written notice to our Designated Agent. Your notice must include substantially the following information (please consult your legal counsel or see 17 U.S.C. §512(c)(3) to confirm these requirements):

  1. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works.
  2. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit Gjaldskylda to locate the material (e.g., URL of the specific content).
  3. Information reasonably sufficient to permit Gjaldskylda to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which the complaining party may be contacted.
  4. A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  5. A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
  6. A physical or electronic signature of the complaining party or a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

Please be aware that under 17 U.S.C. §512(f), any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing may be subject to liability for damages.

Filing a DMCA Counter-Notification

If you believe that your content was removed or access to it was disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may file a counter-notification with our Designated Agent. Your counter-notification must include substantially the following information (please consult your legal counsel or see 17 U.S.C. §512(g)(3) to confirm these requirements):

  • Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location (e.g., URL) at which the material appeared before it was removed or disabled.
  • Your name, address, and telephone number.
  • 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 United States, for any judicial district in which Gjaldskylda may be found.
  • A statement that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notification of alleged infringement or an agent of such person.
  • 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.
  • Your physical or electronic signature.

Please be aware that under 17 U.S.C. §512(f), any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification may be subject to liability for damages.
