DMCA Policy

Criticalcareupdate.com claims no ownership rights in any content or image submitted to it by its contributors, posters, and commenters.  Criticalcareupdate.com is committed to complying with U.S. copyright law and expects all who access our site and Service to do the same.

In compliance with the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act, Pub. L. 105-304 (“DMCA”) https://www.copyright.gov/legislation/dmca.pdf, administrators of criticalcareupdate.com will respond to notification of claimed infringement with the U.S. Copyright Office (see below).

Upon receipt of a valid legal notice alleging that copyright infringement is occurring, Criticalcareupdate.com will remove the offending material and provide the contributor or poster with a copy of the notice of copyright infringement. The material shall remain removed from Criticalcareupdate.com’s service until the contributor or poster has provided the designated agent at Criticalcareupdate.com a complying Counter Notification. Upon receipt of the valid Counter Notification, the law requires Criticalcareupdate.com to submit a copy of the Counter Notification to the complaining party with notice that Criticalcareupdate.com will replace or re-enable access to the allegedly infringing material in ten business days. Then, ten to fourteen business days after receiving the Counter Notification, Criticalcareupdate.com will replace or re-enable access to the allegedly infringing material, unless the complaining party has notified Criticalcareupdate.com’s administrators that a court action relating to the materials in question has been filed in order to stop the alleged copyright infringement.

Notification of Claimed Copyright Infringement

If you believe that a web page hosted by Criticalcareupdate.com is violating your rights under U.S. copyright law, you may file a complaint thereof with Criticalcareupdate.com’s administrator in the manner described below.

    • 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 (e.g., “I hereby state that the information in this Notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that I am the owner, or authorized to act on behalf of the owner, of the copyright or of an exclusive right under the copyright that is allegedly infringed.”)

     

    See 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) for more details.

    You also should be aware that, under the DMCA, claimants who make misrepresentations concerning copyright infringement may be liable for damages incurred as a result of the removal or blocking of the wrongfully accused material, court costs, and attorneys’ fees.

    If criticalcareupdate.com receives a valid counter-notification, the DMCA provides that the removed material will be restored or access re-enabled. Under the criticalcareupdate.com’s Terms of Service agreement, however Criticalcareupdate.com may have the option to remove the material in any event under its “Acceptable Use” terms.
