Kwippe DMCA Policy

DCMA POLICY

In our Kwippe products we have compiled some of the best open source and creative
commons artwork we could find on the web. We have attributed the art, even in those
cases where it was not required, as we believe in giving credit where credit is due. We
take trademark and copyright laws seriously, and have done out best to vet the graphics to
insure we have not included trademarked or copyrighted images or images that do not
allow redistribution. It is our intention to only host and make available the images to our
users in a manner consistent with the licenses under which they were made obtained and
in a manner respectful of the intellectual property rights of others. If you believe that any
image we have made available infringes upon your copyright or your trademark, please
let us know by sending us an IP infringement notice in the manner described below.

DCMA Notice

For copyright notices, your notice must meet all requirements of the Digital Millennium
Copyright Act (“DMCA”). For trademark infringement notices, you must provide us with
clear information about the location of the allegedly infringing work, complete
information about your trademark, and your contact information (name, physical address,
email address and telephone number).

You can send us a DMCA Notice, DMCA Counter Notice or Trademark Notice via mail
or via email to:

When you submit a DMCA or Trademark Notice, we will always provide a copy of your
notice to the source of the content you say is infringing.

Filing a DMCA Notice:

Please make sure your DMCA notice is complete. Kwippe will only remove content we
host in response to DMCA notices that contain all of the following:

A clear description of the copyrighted work infringed;
The URL where the material you claim is infringing is located on our
services, or a description of that location sufficiently detailed for us to find it
A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the
content identified in your DMCA notice is not authorized by the copyright
owner, its agent or the law;
Your contact information; and
A certification, under penalty of perjury, that the DMCA notice is
accurate.

The notice shall be signed (either electronically or physically) by the copyright
owner or the copyright owner’s legal representative.

Before you file your DMCA notice, please carefully consider whether or not the
use of the copyrighted material at issue is protected by the Fair Use doctrine. If you file a
DMCA notice when there is no infringing use, you could be liable for costs and attorneys’
fees. If you are unsure whether someone’s use of your copyrighted material amounts to
infringement, please contact an attorney. You might also want to consult publicly
available reference materials such as those found at the U.S. Copyright Office web site.

Filing a DMCA Counter Notice:

In the event you are a third party to whom we have directed notice of a DCMA
claim regarding your artwork, it is likely we removed or disabled your content within our
application upon receiving the complaint. If you believe we disabled your content on a
Kwippe service as a result of an improper copyright infringement notice, you can file a
DMCA Counter Notice by sending it to the address above. Kwippe will only take action
in response to DMCA Counter Notices that contain all of the following:

A clear description of the material we disabled and the location
where it was hosted before disabling;
A statement that you consent to jurisdiction of the Federal District
court for the district where you reside (or of the U.S. District Court of
Alaska if you reside outside of the United States) and that you agree to
accept service of process from the person who filed the DMCA notice you
are responding to or their agent;
Your contact information (such as your name, physical address,
email address and telephone number); and
A statement made and signed by you under penalty of perjury that
you have a good faith belief that the content was removed or disabled as a
result of mistake or misidentification.

Before you file your DMCA Counter Notice, please carefully consider whether or not
your use of the material at issue is infringing. If you file a DMCA Counter Notice when
your use is infringing, you could be liable for costs and attorneys’ fees. If you are unsure
whether your use of the content at issue amounts to infringement, please contact an
attorney. You might also want to consult publicly available reference materials such as
those found at the U.S. Copyright Office web site.
