Introduction

BigWhores.com ("we", "our", "us") respects the intellectual property rights of others and is committed to complying with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and other applicable intellectual property laws. If you believe that your copyrighted work has been infringed upon on our website, please follow the procedure outlined below to file a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) takedown notice.

This DMCA policy outlines the process for submitting complaints regarding alleged infringement of copyrights, as well as the steps we will take in response to such notices.

1. Copyright Infringement Notice

If you are the copyright owner or an authorized agent of the copyright owner and you believe that your work has been infringed on our website, you may submit a notice to us following the procedure described below. Your notice should include the following information:

• Identification of the copyrighted work: Please provide a detailed description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed. This could include a title, description, or any other information that will help us identify the work.
• Location of the infringing material: Please include the specific URL(s) of the infringing content that you believe violates your copyright. Providing the exact location of the infringing content is necessary for us to locate it promptly.
• Your contact information: Please provide your full name, address, telephone number, and email address so we can reach you if necessary. If you are acting on behalf of the copyright owner, you must provide written authorization from the copyright owner to submit the notice.
• Statement of good faith belief: Please include a statement confirming that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner you are complaining about is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
• Statement of accuracy: Please provide a statement confirming that the information in the notice is accurate, under penalty of perjury. Additionally, the notice should include a statement that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
• Signature: Please sign the notice, either physically or electronically.

Once we receive your DMCA notice with the necessary information, we will process it and take appropriate action in accordance with the DMCA and our internal policies.

2. Counter-Notification

If you believe that your material was removed in error or misidentifies the material to be removed, you may file a counter-notification with us. Your counter-notification should include the following information:

• Your contact information: Your full name, address, telephone number, and email address.
• Identification of the material removed: Provide the specific URL(s) where the material was previously located on our site.
• Good faith statement: A statement that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed due to a mistake or misidentification.
• Consent to jurisdiction: A statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district in which you reside, or if outside the United States, the jurisdiction of a court in an appropriate location.
• Signature: Please sign the counter-notification, either physically or electronically.

Upon receipt of your valid counter-notification, we will forward it to the original complainant, and the allegedly infringing material will be reinstated, unless the complainant files a court action seeking to prevent the restoration of the material.

3. Our Response to DMCA Notices

Upon receiving a valid DMCA takedown notice, we will:

• Remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material within a reasonable timeframe.
• Notify the user who uploaded the allegedly infringing material about the takedown notice.
• In cases where a counter-notification is received, we will review the submission and may restore the material to our site if the counter-notification is valid and we do not receive a response from the copyright holder disputing it.

We reserve the right to remove or block access to content that violates our policies or intellectual property laws, and we may suspend or terminate accounts that are found to repeatedly infringe on the copyrights of others.

4. Repeat Infringers

We take copyright infringement seriously. As part of our commitment to the protection of intellectual property rights, we have implemented a policy that provides for the termination of accounts of repeat infringers. A repeat infringer is someone who has been notified of infringing activity more than twice and has failed to take corrective action.

If we determine that a user has been a repeat infringer, we will terminate their account or block access to their content in accordance with the DMCA and applicable law.

5. Limitations of Liability

Under the DMCA, we are not liable for infringing content that is uploaded by users, provided that we act as a neutral intermediary and take down content once we receive proper notice of infringement. However, we reserve the right to act at our discretion to remove or disable access to content, even if a formal DMCA notice has not been submitted.
