Copyright Procedure

Understanding the intricacies of copyright law is vital for protecting creative works and ensuring respect for original content. Here at Vessel Bill of Sale, we honor and uphold the intellectual property rights of creators. Our commitment to fostering an environment of respect and legal integrity guides our approach to the copyright process.

Notice of Infringement

If you suspect that your copyright has been infringed upon by content published on our platform, we encourage you to reach out to us directly. A formal notification of copyright infringement, also known as a DMCA notice, should be submitted to our dedicated email address: dmca@vesselbillofsale.com. This notice should contain all relevant information to allow us to adequately assess and address the claim. It is crucial for the notice to be detailed and to include the following: a physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or an authorized representative, a clear identification of the copyrighted work that is allegedly infringed, a description of where the content in question is located on our site, your contact information for communication purposes, and a statement of belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.

Response and Action

Upon receiving a notice of infringement, our dedicated team will conduct a thorough review of the claim. This review process is crucial for ensuring that every claim is addressed fairly and within the bounds of copyright law. Notifications that meet the required criteria will result in the removal of the infringing material from our website. We are committed to acting swiftly in response to valid copyright complaints, with an aim to resolve such issues in a timely manner.

Counter Notification

In situations where the individual or entity responsible for the content believed to be infringing disagrees with the claim, there is an opportunity to submit a counter notification. This response should be sent to our contact email and must include: a physical or electronic signature of the content provider, identification of the content that was removed or to which access was disabled, and a statement under penalty of perjury that the content provider has a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification. In addition, the counter notification should include the content provider's name, address, phone number, and a statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the Federal Court for the judicial district in which the address is located, or if the content provider's address is outside the United States, for any judicial district in which the service provider may be found.
