You represent, warrant and agree that you have sufficient permissions, rights and/or licenses to any user generated content you post to or through the Service.

GoPhrazy does not check your user generated content for violations of copyright or other rights. However, if you believe that any content has infringed upon your copyright rights, please provide GoPhrazy with a notice of copyright infringement in compliance with § 512 of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. Once GoPhrazy receives a notice of copyright infringement in compliance with § 512, GoPhrazy will act with commercial reasonableness to remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing content. GoPhrazy will also make a good faith attempt to notify the Account owner or uploader of the allegedly infringing content.

  2. Identification of the copyrighted work(s) alleged to have been infringed;
  3. The location of the copyrighted work(s) on the Service;
  4. Your contact information, such as an address, telephone, fax number, or email address;

  6. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notification is accurate and that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

Conversely, if you are an Account owner and user that believes that content subject to a notice of copyright infringement is not actually infringing, you may submit a counter-notification. The counter-notification must contain the following:

  1. Identification of the specific materials that have been removed from the Service;
  2. Your contact information, such as an address, telephone, fax number, or email address;
  3. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the content was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification;

  5. A statement that you will accept service of process from the notifying party; and
  6. Your physical or electronic signature.

Notifications of copyright infringement and counter-notifications may be submitted to GoPhrazy’s Copyright Agent at [email protected]
