DMCA POLICY

Cloud Storage respects intellectual property rights and complies with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), 17 U.S.C. §512. This page describes how rights holders can report content they believe to be infringing, how users can file a counter-notification when their content is removed, and how Cloud Storage treats repeat infringers.

1. Designated Copyright Agent

Notices of claimed infringement must be sent to the agent identified below. Use this contact for DMCA matters only.

Designated Agent: [Agent Name]
Organization: Cloud Storage
Postal address: [Street, City, Region, Postal code, Country]
Phone: [Phone number]
Email: [dmca-agent@cloudstorage.bar]

Until the agent is registered with the U.S. Copyright Office at dmca.copyright.gov, the contact above is provisional. Registration is required for safe-harbor eligibility and must be renewed every three years.

2. Notice Format Required by 17 U.S.C. §512(c)(3)

For a takedown notice to be valid, it must include all of the following elements. Notices missing any element may be rejected as facially deficient.

A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner, or of a person authorized to act on the owner's behalf.
Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed. If multiple works are covered by a single notice, a representative list is acceptable.
Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing and that you are asking to be removed, with information reasonably sufficient to locate it. Provide the full URL on share.cloudstorage.bar for each item.
Contact information sufficient to permit us to reply: full legal name, postal address, telephone number, and email address.
A statement that you 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.
A statement that the information in the notification is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

3. Response Time

We acknowledge valid takedown notices within 72 hours of receipt. Where the notice is valid on its face, we will act to remove or disable access to the identified material within 10 business days. Submissions outside business hours may add up to one additional business day.

4. Counter-Notification

If you believe your content was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification, you may file a counter-notification under 17 U.S.C. §512(g). A valid counter-notification must include:

Your physical or electronic signature.
Identification of the material that was removed and the location at which it appeared before removal.
A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
Your full legal name, postal address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the U.S. federal district court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if outside the United States, for any judicial district in which the service provider may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notice or that person's agent.

Submit counter-notifications through the counter-notification form. Valid counter-notifications are forwarded to the original complainant; the removed material may be restored within 10 to 14 business days unless the complainant files a court action.

5. Repeat Infringer Policy

Cloud Storage maintains a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are determined to be repeat infringers. Multiple valid takedown notices against the same account, or a single notice combined with clear evidence of willful infringement, may result in suspension or permanent termination of the account, including loss of access to all stored content and any associated subscription or credit balance.

6. Misuse and False Claims

Under 17 U.S.C. §512(f), any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or that material was removed by mistake, may be liable for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees, incurred by the alleged infringer or the service provider.

7. Submit a Takedown Notice

Use the form below or send your notice by email to the designated agent above. Submissions to this form are recorded with your stated identity, the IP address of submission, the user agent string, and a timestamp; these records are retained as required to support our safe-harbor obligations and may be forwarded to affected users.
