The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) provides a mechanism for notifying service providers of claims of unauthorized use of copyrighted materials. Under the DMCA, a claim must be sent to the service provider’s Designated Agent. Email is not an accepted form of communication as delivery origins can be spoofed and altered. If you believe in good faith that Rivalhost.com should be notified of a possible online copyright infringement involving a member of RivalHost's client base, please notify our Designated Agent by postal mail or delivery courier:

RivalHost
Abuse Division Manager
Attn: Legal Reports
820 W. Danforth Rd., B-20
Edmond, OK 73034

Please be aware that, in order to be effective, your notice of claim must comply with the detailed requirements set forth in the DMCA. You are encouraged to review them (see 17 U.S.C. Sec. 512 (3)) before sending your claim. You can read all requirements at Copyright.gov.

DMCA Copyright Infringement Notification Requirements:

• Signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on the copyright owner's behalf (the "Claimant").
  
• Identification of the copyrighted work(s) claimed to have been infringed.
  
• Identification of the material claimed to infringe the copyright(s), and enough information for Rivalhost.com to locate it including URLs and specific descriptions of the infringing material at each URL.
  
• The Claimant's name, address, and telephone number(s).
  
• A statement that the Claimant has a good faith belief that use of the disputed material is not authorized by the copyright owner or his agent.
