⚖️ DMCA Policy

1️⃣ Our Role

InTechZed provides URL shortening and link protection services. We do not host, store, or control the content that users link to. We are merely a conduit service that creates short links to content hosted elsewhere on the internet.

However, we take copyright infringement seriously and will respond to valid DMCA takedown notices by removing access to allegedly infringing material through our service.

2️⃣ Filing a DMCA Notice

If you believe that content accessible through our shortened links infringes your copyright, you may submit a DMCA takedown notice. Your notice must include:

• Your physical or electronic signature
• Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed
• The InTechZed short link(s) that allegedly contain infringing material
• Your contact information (address, phone number, email)
• A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use is not authorized
• A statement that the information in your notice is accurate
• A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner

3️⃣ Where to Send Notices

Send your DMCA takedown notice to our designated agent:

4️⃣ Our Response Process

Upon receiving a valid DMCA notice, we will:

• Review the notice for completeness and validity
• Remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing links
• Make a good faith attempt to notify the user who created the link
• Document the takedown for our records

We typically respond to valid notices within 24-48 hours.

5️⃣ Counter-Notification

If you believe your link was removed in error or misidentification, you may file a counter-notification. Your counter-notice must include:

• Your physical or electronic signature
• Identification of the material that was removed
• A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief the material was removed by mistake
• Your contact information
• A statement consenting to jurisdiction of Federal District Court

6️⃣ Repeat Infringers

We maintain a policy of terminating access for users who are repeat copyright infringers. Users who repeatedly create links to infringing content may have their access to our service permanently disabled.

7️⃣ False Claims

Please note that under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, anyone who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing may be subject to liability. We reserve the right to seek damages from any party that submits a false or fraudulent DMCA notice.
