PREPARING A COPYRIGHT NOTICE

Send the notice to dmca@anteomnio.com with the subject Copyright Notice. This checklist helps you prepare; section 3 contains the complete requirements and statements.

The notice may be shared.

Under clause 4.2, when material is removed following review, a copy of the notice is sent to the person who posted it.

  1. 01

    Your identity and contact details

    Name, postal address, telephone number and email address.

  2. 02

    The copyrighted work

    Identify the work you say has been infringed, or a representative list where the notice covers multiple works.

  3. 03

    The material and its exact location

    Supply the precise URL and enough detail to locate the material. Distinguish the original work from the use you are reporting.

  4. 04

    The good-faith statement

    Address whether the use is authorised by the owner, the owner’s agent or the law, as required by clause 3.1.

  5. 05

    Accuracy and authority

    Include the required accuracy statement and the statement under penalty of perjury about your ownership or authority to act.

  6. 06

    Your signature

    Include a physical or electronic signature.

AFTER A NOTICE ARRIVES

Review comes before
a decision on the material.

The steps below describe section 4 of this policy. Incomplete notices need correction; a counter notice follows a separate procedure.

  1. 01 / RECEIPT

    Acknowledge

    We acknowledge receipt within one working day.

  2. 02 / COMPLETENESS

    Check the information

    If required information is missing, we identify it so a corrected notice can be sent.

  3. 03 / DETERMINATION

    Review and respond

    Where the complete complaint appears well founded, we remove or disable the material and notify its poster.

Two procedures, different timing.

Section 4 sets the notice-review period. Section 5 separately addresses counter notices and possible restoration; section 6 addresses complaints under Indian law and applicable time limits.

IF YOUR MATERIAL WAS REMOVED

Respond to a mistake
or misidentification.

A counter notice is a formal response. Section 5 sets out the identifying information, statement under penalty of perjury, jurisdiction and service-of-process statement, and signature it requires.

A valid counter notice is forwarded to the original complainant. Sending one does not guarantee restoration; read the conditions in clauses 5.2 and 5.3.

THE COMPLETE POLICY

Notices, responses and contact

Anteomnio Marketing (OPC) Private Limited · Section 1 explains the status of this procedure, including the absence of a claimed U.S. section 512 safe harbour.

1. Status and effect of this policy

1.1 We respect the copyright of others and require the same of every person using systems we control. This policy sets out the procedure by which infringing material may be notified to us and the procedure by which a person whose material has been removed may respond.

1.2 We apply the notice and counter notice procedure prescribed by the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act because it is a fair and well understood procedure, and we apply the same procedure to complaints made under the Copyright Act 1957 of India and under comparable legislation elsewhere.

1.3 We do not presently claim the limitation of liability conferred by section 512 of title 17 of the United States Code, not having registered a designated agent with the United States Copyright Office, and nothing in this policy is to be construed as a claim to it or as a representation that it is available to us.

1.4 This policy is incorporated into our Terms and Conditions by clause 2.3 of those Terms. Nothing in this policy constitutes a waiver of any right or remedy available to us, or an admission in respect of any material notified to us.

2. Scope of this policy

2.1 This policy applies to material published on anteomnio.com, on the client portal at portal.anteomnio.com, and on any other system that we host and control.

2.2 This policy does not apply to a website or system built by us for a client and delivered up, or otherwise operated under a client's control. The operator of each such system is responsible for copyright complaints concerning it. Where a notice is sent to us in respect of such a system we will, within a reasonable time, inform you that we are not the correct recipient and, where we are able to do so without breach of clause 14 of the Terms, identify the person who is.

2.3 Our open source projects are hosted on GitHub, and a complaint concerning them may additionally be made to GitHub under its own copyright procedure.

3. Contents of a notice

3.1 A notice should be sent to dmca@anteomnio.com under the subject line Copyright Notice. To be capable of being acted upon, a notice must contain each of the following.

  • Your name, postal address, telephone number and email address.
  • Identification of the copyrighted work said to have been infringed, or, where a single notice covers multiple works, a representative list of them.
  • Identification of the material said to be infringing, by reference to the precise address at which it appears, in sufficient detail to permit us to locate it.
  • A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent or the law.
  • A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are authorised to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
  • Your physical or electronic signature.

3.2 A notice that omits any of the matters in clause 3.1 is incomplete, and clause 4.3 applies to it.

3.3 A person who knowingly makes a material misrepresentation in a notice may be liable for damages, including the costs and legal fees incurred by the person whose material was removed and by the service provider, under section 512(f) of title 17 of the United States Code and under the corresponding provisions of other laws. If you are in any doubt as to whether a use is infringing, you should take advice before sending a notice.

5. Counter notices

5.1 Where your material has been removed or disabled and you believe that this occurred as a result of mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter notice to dmca@anteomnio.com containing each of the following.

  • Your name, postal address, telephone number and email address.
  • Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled, 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.
  • A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the United States federal district court for the judicial district in which your address is located or, if your address is outside the United States, of any judicial district in which we may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who gave the original notice or from that person's agent.
  • Your physical or electronic signature.

5.2 We transmit a valid counter notice to the person who gave the original notice.

5.3 Unless that person notifies us within ten (10) to fourteen (14) Business Days of transmission that they have commenced proceedings seeking a court order to restrain the activity complained of, we may restore the material. We are not obliged to restore it, and clause 4.5 continues to apply.

5.4 A person who knowingly makes a material misrepresentation in a counter notice is subject to the same liability described in clause 3.3.

6. Complaints under Indian law

6.1 We are established in India, and a complaint may accordingly be made under the Copyright Act 1957 and the Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules 2021 in place of a notice under clause 3.

6.2 Such a complaint should be sent to the address in clause 8 under the subject line Copyright Notice and should include the identifying particulars required by clause 3.1 so that the material may be located.

6.3 We acknowledge a complaint under those Rules within one working day and act upon it within the periods those Rules prescribe, which prevail over clause 4.2 to the extent of any inconsistency.

7. Repeat infringers

7.1 We terminate access for any person who repeatedly infringes copyright on a system we host and control.

7.2 In determining whether a person is a repeat infringer we take into account the number of notices upheld against them, whether any has been successfully met by a counter notice, the gravity of each infringement and the period over which the infringements occurred.
