DMCA Policy

Homemade Waffles ("we," "us," or "our") respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (DMCA), the text of which can be found on the U.S. Copyright Office website at https://www.copyright.gov/legislation/dmca.pdf, we will respond expeditiously to claims of copyright infringement committed using the Homemade Waffles website or other online services (the "Site") if such claims are reported to our Designated Copyright Agent.

This policy outlines the information that should be present in a notice of alleged copyright infringement and a counter-notice. We reserve the right to remove content without prior notification and without liability, at our sole discretion.

Your physical or electronic signature: A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf.

Filing a Counter-Notification

Identification of the removed material: Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled (e.g., a specific URL link).
A statement of good faith belief: A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material.
Your contact information: Your full legal name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
Consent to jurisdiction: A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located, or if your address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which Homemade Waffles may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notification of infringement.
Your physical or electronic signature: Your physical or electronic signature.

Please note that under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing, or that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, may be subject to liability.
