Copyright and DMCA Policy

01Our Respect for Intellectual Property

Bang the Over ("Bang the Over," "we," "us," or "our") respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of bangtheover.com (the "Site") to do the same. We respond to clear notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"), 17 U.S.C. § 512. This policy describes how to submit a notice, how to file a counter-notification, and the consequences for repeat infringers.

02Filing a Copyright Infringement Notice

If you are a copyright owner, or authorized to act on behalf of one, and you believe that material on the Site infringes your copyright, you may submit a written notice to our Designated Copyright Agent identified in Section 3. To be effective under the DMCA, your notice must include substantially the following:

1. A physical or electronic signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright that is allegedly infringed;
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple works are covered by a single notice, a representative list of those works;
3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity, with enough detail for us to locate it, such as the specific URL or page on the Site;
4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, such as your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address;
5. A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
6. A statement that the information in the notice is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on the owner's behalf.

03Designated Copyright Agent

Notices of claimed infringement should be sent to our Designated Copyright Agent:

To ensure your notice is routed correctly, we recommend including "DMCA Notice" in the subject line of any email.

04Counter-Notification

If you believe that material you posted to the Site was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may submit a written counter-notification to our Designated Copyright Agent. To be effective, your counter-notification must include substantially the following:

1. Your physical or electronic signature;
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 disabled;
3. 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 of the material to be removed or disabled;
4. Your name, mailing address, and telephone number; and
5. A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district in which your address is located, or if your address is outside the United States, for any judicial district in which we may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notice or an agent of that person.

If we receive a valid counter-notification, we may restore the removed material in not less than ten (10) nor more than fourteen (14) business days following receipt, unless our Designated Copyright Agent first receives notice from the person who filed the original notice that they have filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the allegedly infringing activity.

05Repeat Infringer Policy

In accordance with the DMCA and other applicable law, we have adopted a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances and at our sole discretion, the access of users who are deemed to be repeat infringers. We may also, at our sole discretion, limit access to the Site or remove any material that we believe in good faith may infringe the intellectual property rights of others.

06Changes to This Policy

We may update this Copyright and DMCA Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Your continued use of the Site after any change indicates your acceptance of the updated policy.
