Please read this Digital Millennium Copyright Act policy (“Policy”) carefully. It covers the principalsoftware.net website (“Website” or “Service”) and all of its related products and services (collectively, “Services”). The Policy also tells you how to file a copyright infringement complaint with the website operator (“Operator”, “we”, “us”, or “our”).
We think it’s very important to protect intellectual property, and we ask our users and their approved workers to do the same. We quickly react to clear notices of claimed copyright violations that follow the rules of the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) of 1998. You can read the full text of the DMCA on the website of the U.S. Copyright Office.
Things to think about before sending in a copyright complaint
If you’re not quite sure whether the material you’re reporting is actually infringing, it might be a good idea to chat with an attorney before sending us a notification.
The DMCA asks that you include your personal information in the copyright infringement notification. If you’re worried about keeping your personal information private, you might consider hiring an agent to help report any infringing material on your behalf.
Infringement notifications
Filing a DMCA complaint is the beginning of a set legal process. We’ll take a look at your complaint to ensure everything is accurate, valid, and complete. We might need to take steps to remove or limit access to material that is claimed to be infringing.
If we need to remove or limit access to materials or terminate an account due to a Notification of alleged infringement, we will do our best to reach out to the affected user with details about the removal or restriction of access.
This Policy outlines a process, but it doesn’t restrict us from seeking any other solutions we might have for addressing suspected infringement.
Updates and modifications
We may update this Policy or its terms regarding the Website and Services whenever we feel it’s necessary. Once we have an update, we’ll be sure to send you an email to let you know! We might also reach out to you in other ways if we choose, like using the contact information you’ve shared with us.
The updated version of this Policy will take effect right away as soon as the revised Policy is posted, unless stated otherwise. By continuing to use the Website and Services after the effective date of the revised Policy (or any other action specified at that time), you agree to those changes.
