DMCA Notice & Takedown Policy

Effective date: September 15, 2025

Avaplicity, Inc. ("Avaplicity," "we," "us," or "our") respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects our users to do the same. This page explains how to submit a notice of claimed copyright infringement under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 512 ("DMCA"), and how to submit a counter-notification if you believe content was removed by mistake or misidentification.

Designated DMCA Agent

Avaplicity's designated agent to receive notifications of claimed infringement is:

DMCA Agent – Avaplicity, Inc.
7775 Walton Parkway, Suite 100
New Albany, Ohio 43054
Email: privacy@avaplicity.com

Email is preferred. Notices sent to other contacts may not be received. (We do not publish a public phone number.)

How to Submit a DMCA Takedown Notice

If you are a copyright owner or authorized to act on one's behalf and believe material on our Services infringes your copyright, send a written DMCA notice to our designated agent that includes all of the following (see 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)):

  1. Your signature (physical or electronic).
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work you claim is infringed, or a representative list of works.
  3. Identification of the material you claim is infringing (or to be the subject of infringing activity) that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material (e.g., precise URL(s), timestamps, and a description).
  4. Your contact information (name, mailing address, and email).
  5. Statements:
    • "I have a good-faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law."
    • "The information in this notice is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, I am the owner of the copyright or am authorized to act on behalf of the owner."

Incomplete notices may be rejected or delayed.

How to Submit a Counter-Notification

If your content was removed or disabled in response to a DMCA notice and you believe it was removed due to mistake or misidentification, you may send our designated agent a written counter-notification that includes all of the following (see 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3)):

  1. Your signature (physical or electronic).
  2. Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access was disabled (e.g., precise URL(s), timestamps).
  3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled.
  4. Your contact information (name, mailing address, and email), and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district where your address is located (or, if outside the U.S., for any judicial district in which Avaplicity may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original DMCA notice or their agent.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we may restore the material within 10–14 business days unless the original notifier informs us they have filed an action seeking a court order to restrain you from engaging in infringing activity related to the material on our Services.

Repeat Infringer Policy

Consistent with the DMCA and applicable law, Avaplicity may, in appropriate circumstances, disable or terminate accounts of users who are determined to be repeat infringers. We also reserve the right to remove or disable access to content alleged to infringe, at our discretion.

Misrepresentations

Submitting a DMCA notice or counter-notification that materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing (or was removed by mistake) may expose you to liability for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees, under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f). If you are unsure whether material is infringing, consult an attorney.

Standard Technical Measures

We accommodate and do not interfere with standard technical measures used by copyright owners to identify or protect copyrighted works, as defined by the DMCA.

Privacy

Notices, counter-notifications, and related correspondence may be shared with the parties involved and with third parties (including our service providers) as necessary to process claims, comply with law, or enforce our rights. For more about how we handle personal information, see our Privacy Policy.

Relationship to Other Terms

This policy is incorporated by reference into our Terms of Use and should be read together with our Acceptable Use Policy.
