Procedure for Filing a Claim of Infringement Under the DMCA (“DMCA Take-Down Notices”)

1. If you are a copyright owner or an authorized agent of such an owner with a good faith belief that any content used on our Websites or Software or included as part of any User Generated Content infringes upon your copyrights, you may submit a notification pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) by providing our Copyright Agent with the following information in writing (see 17 U.S.C § 512(c)(3) for further detail): 

• Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed, or if multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works;
• Identification of the material that you claim to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and you believe such material must be removed, or access to should be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit SECS LONDON LIMITED to locate the material;
• Adequate information to allow SECS LONDON LIMITED to contact you, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail; 
• A verified statement that the use of the material complained about has not been authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and

• Identification of the content that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or disabled;
• A statement that you in a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or a misidentification of the material;
• Your name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address, a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the ECJ and UK Court of Justice, and a statement that you will accept the claim from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement if proved truthful; and
• Your physical or electronic signature;

If a Counter-Notice is received by the Copyright Agent, SECS LONDON LIMITED may send a copy of the Counter-Notice to the original complaining party informing that person that it may replace the removed content or cease disabling it in 10 business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the user, the removed content may be replaced, or access to it restored, in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the Counter-Notice, at SECS LONDON LIMITED ‘s sole discretion.
