DMCA & Copyright Policy

Overview

Meteoric, LLC("Watchmode™," "we," "our" or "us") respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects the users of the Watchmode™ website located at www.watchmode.com (the "Site"), the Watchmode™ mobile application (the "App") and our developer/API portal (collectively, the "Services") to do the same.

It is our policy to respond expeditiously to notices of claimed copyright infringement that substantially comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 512 (the "DMCA"), and, in appropriate circumstances, to disable and/or terminate the accounts of users who are repeat infringers.

Certain content available through the Services, including posters, photographs, headshots, artwork, logos, and other media, originates from third-party sources. Watchmode™ does not claim ownership of third-party media, and all rights remain with their respective owners. If you believe any material available through the Services infringes your copyright, please notify our designated agent as described below and we will act promptly.

Reporting Copyright Infringement (Takedown Notices)

If you are a copyright owner, or are authorized to act on behalf of one, you may submit a notification of claimed infringement under the DMCA by providing our designated agent with a written notice that includes substantially all of the following (see 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) for details):

1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed;
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works;
3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material (for example, the URL(s) of the page(s) where the material appears);
4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an e-mail address;
5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
6. A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

Before submitting a notice, please consider whether the use of the material may be authorized by law — for example, as a fair use. Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), 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 liable for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees.

Email is the fastest way to reach us. Please include "DMCA Notice" in the subject line of any e-mail submission.

How We Respond to Notices

Upon receipt of a notice that substantially complies with the DMCA, we will:

• Expeditiously remove or disable access to the identified material;
• Take reasonable steps to prevent the identified material from being re-imported or restored from the third-party data sources we use;
• Where the material was uploaded by a user, notify that user of the removal and provide a copy of the notice (which may include the information it contains); and
• Retain records of the notice and the actions taken in response.

If a notice identifies the copyrighted work, the allegedly infringing material, and provides information reasonably sufficient for us to contact the sender, but is otherwise incomplete, we will promptly attempt to contact the sender or take other reasonable steps to help the sender provide a substantially compliant notice.

Counter-Notification

If material you uploaded was removed or disabled and you believe this was the result of a mistake or misidentification, you may submit a written counter-notification to our designated agent that includes substantially all of the following (see 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3) for details):

1. Your physical or electronic signature;
2. 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;
3. 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 to be removed or disabled; and
4. Your name, address, and telephone number, and 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 we may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notification or an agent of such person.

If we receive a counter-notification that substantially complies with 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3), we will promptly provide the person who submitted the original notice with a copy of the counter-notification and inform that person that we will replace the removed material or cease disabling access to it in ten (10) business days. Unless our designated agent first receives notice from that person that they have filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the allegedly infringing activity, we will replace the removed material or cease disabling access to it not less than ten (10) and not more than fourteen (14) business days after receiving the counter-notification.

Repeat Infringer Policy

Watchmode™ prohibits copyright infringement. In appropriate circumstances, Watchmode™ will disable or terminate the accounts of users who repeatedly infringe copyrights or repeatedly submit infringing material. Watchmode™ will act expeditiously to remove or disable access to infringing material upon obtaining actual knowledge of infringement, becoming aware of facts or circumstances from which infringing activity is apparent, or receiving a notice that substantially complies with the DMCA under this policy.

The DMCA process described above applies to copyright claims. If you believe content available through the Services violates other rights — for example, trademark rights or rights of publicity or privacy — please contact our designated agent at the address above with a description of the content, its location within the Services, the right you believe is being violated, and your contact information. We review and respond to all such reports.
