Copyright Infringement (DMCA Notice Procedure)
The Foundation respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of the Website to do the same.
In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), the Foundation will respond appropriately to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with applicable law.

- identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (or, if multiple works are covered by a single notice, a representative list of such works)
- identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing and information reasonably sufficient to permit the Foundation to locate the material (such as a URL or page description)
- the claimant’s name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address
- a statement that the claimant has a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law
- a statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that the claimant is the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner’s behalf
