Digital Millennium Copyright Act


What is the (DMCA)?

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) creates a

standardized process for copyright holders (including software developers) to

ask Amy In Your Kitchen to take down infringing content. You can find more

information about the DMCA at the US Copyright Office’s official website. As

with all legal matters, it is always best to consult a professional about your

specific questions or situation. We strongly encourage you to do so before

taking any action that might affect your rights. Our guides are NOT legal

advice and shouldn’t be taken as such. Before You Start, Tell the Truth.

The DMCA requires that you swear to the facts in your notice
of infringement under penalty of perjury. It is a federal crime to
intentionally lie in a sworn declaration. (See US Code, Title 18, Section
1621). Submitting false information could also result in civil liability, that
is, you could get sued for money damages or be investigated yourself. All Kinds
of users and organizations pour their hearts and souls into the content they
create using our and affiliates ideas. Filing a DMCA notice of infringement
against such is a serious legal allegation that carries real consequences for
real people. Because of that, we ask that you conduct a thorough investigation
and consult with an attorney before submitting a takedown request to make sure
that the use isn’t permissible. Ask Nicely First. A great first step before
sending us a takedown notice is to try contacting the user directly. No Bots.
You should have a trained professional evaluate the facts of every takedown
notice you send. If you are outsourcing your efforts to a third party, make
sure you know how they operate, and make sure they are not using automated bots
to submit notices in bulk. These notices are often invalid and processing them
results in needlessly taking down content. You May Receive Counter
Notices. Any user affected by your takedown notice may decide to submit a
counter notice. If they do, we will re-enable their content within 14 days
unless you notify us that you have initiated a legal action seeking to restrain
the user from engaging in infringing activity relating to the content on Amy In
Your Kitchen. Amy In Your Kitchen Isn’t The Judge! Amy In Your Kitchen
exercises little discretion in the process other than determining whether the
notices meet the minimum requirements of the DMCA. It is up to the parties (and
their lawyers) to evaluate the merit of their claims, bearing in mind that
notices must be made under penalty of perjury. How to Submit Your
Notice and Counter Notice The fastest way to get a response is to enter your
information and answer all the questions on our takedown or counter
notification form(s): Submit a DMCA Takedown Notice
