DMCA Policy

1. Introduction

CollabScale LLC ("CollabScale," "we," "our," or "us") respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of the Code Fluxr platform and related services (collectively, the "Service") to do the same. This DMCA Policy describes how we handle claims of copyright infringement in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"), 17 U.S.C. § 512.

2. Designated Copyright Agent

Pursuant to the DMCA, CollabScale designates the following agent to receive notifications of claimed copyright infringement ("Designated Agent"):

Please use the contact information above solely for DMCA notices and counter-notices. For general support inquiries, please contact us using the support or contact information provided elsewhere in our documentation or website.

3. Notice of Claimed Copyright Infringement

If you believe that content available on or through the Service infringes your copyright, you may submit a DMCA notice to our Designated Agent. Your notice must be in writing and include the following information (as required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)):

• A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright that is allegedly infringed;
• Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works;
• Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material (such as URLs or specific locations within the Service);
• Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an 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 an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

If your notice does not substantially comply with these requirements, it may not be sufficient for us to act upon.

4. Removal of Allegedly Infringing Material

Upon receipt of a valid DMCA notice, we may:

• remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material;
• notify the user who posted the material that we have removed or disabled access to it;
• take other reasonable steps as required or permitted by the DMCA.

In appropriate circumstances, and in our sole discretion, we may terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.

5. Counter-Notice

If you believe that material removed or disabled as a result of a DMCA notice is not infringing, or that you have the authorization from the copyright owner, the copyright owner's agent, or pursuant to the law to post and use the material, you may submit a counter-notice to our Designated Agent.

A counter-notice must be in writing and include the following (as required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3)):

• Your physical or electronic signature;
• 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;
• 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 name, address, and telephone number, and 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 of the United States, for any judicial district in which CollabScale may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original DMCA notice or an agent of such person.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notice, we may restore the removed material within a reasonable time, unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order to restrain you from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material.

6. Repeat Infringers

In appropriate circumstances, it is our policy to terminate the accounts of users who are determined to be repeat infringers. A repeat infringer is a user who has been the subject of more than one valid and effective DMCA notice involving alleged infringement of copyrighted material, or who engages in a pattern of infringing activity, as determined by CollabScale in its sole discretion.

7. Misrepresentations

Under the DMCA, any person who knowingly makes materially false statements in a copyright infringement notice or counter-notice may be liable for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees, incurred by the alleged infringer, the copyright owner, or service provider.

If you are unsure whether material online infringes your copyright, or whether material you posted is infringing, you should consult with legal counsel before submitting a DMCA notice or counter-notice.

8. No Legal Advice

Nothing in this DMCA Policy or on the Service should be construed as legal advice. If you have questions about your rights under the DMCA or other laws, you should seek independent legal counsel.

9. Changes to This DMCA Policy

We may update this DMCA Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Effective Date" at the top of this Policy and may provide additional notice where required by law.

Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated DMCA Policy.
