Welcome to https://doginto.com/ (the “Site”). We take intellectual property seriously — both respecting the rights of other creators and protecting the content we publish here. In line with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512(c)), copyright owners or their authorized representatives can submit a takedown request using the process below. As a service provider, we rely on the “safe harbor” protections the DMCA provides when we respond to these requests in good faith.
Filing a Copyright Infringement Notice
If you believe content on DogInto.com infringes on work you own the copyright to, send us a written notice that includes all of the following:
- A signature — physical or electronic — from the copyright owner or someone legally authorized to represent them;
- A clear description of the copyrighted work you believe has been infringed;
- The exact URL(s) on DogInto.com where the material in question appears, along with enough detail for us to locate it;
- Your contact information, including full name, mailing address, email address, and phone number;
- A statement confirming your good-faith belief that the use of the material was not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
- A statement, made under penalty of perjury, confirming the notice is accurate and that you’re authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf.
Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), anyone who knowingly submits false or misleading information in a takedown notice can be held liable for damages, including legal costs.
You can send your notice through our Contact page. Email is the fastest way to reach us.
Please be aware that if we receive a valid claim, we may share your identity and the details of your complaint with the person who posted the material in question. By submitting a notice, you agree that this information may be passed along to them.
Submitting a Counter-Notice
If material you posted was taken down and you believe this happened in error or due to misidentification, you have the right to submit a counter-notice. Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3), your counter-notice needs to include:
- Your physical or electronic signature;
- Identification of the material removed and where it was originally located on the Site before removal;
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed by mistake or through misidentification;
- Your full name, address, and phone number, plus a statement agreeing to accept service of process from the party who filed the original complaint, and consenting to jurisdiction in the federal court for your district (or, if outside the U.S., any district where we may be found).
Counter-notices can also be sent through our Contact page — again, email works best for a quick response.
Handling Repeat Offenders
We don’t take repeat copyright violations lightly. In keeping with the DMCA’s repeat-infringer requirements, we track the takedown notices we receive and make reasonable efforts to identify accounts or contributors responsible for multiple violations. Anyone found to be a repeat offender may be permanently barred from contributing to or using the Site.
Changes to This Notice
We may update this page from time to time to reflect changes in our process or in the law. We’d encourage you to check back occasionally if you want to stay current on how we handle these requests.
