LOCKR, LLC
Digital Millennium Copyright Act Notice
Effective: January 15, 2025
LOCKR, LLC ("LOCKR," "we," or "us") respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects customers and users (collectively, "Users") of the lockr.top platform and related services (the "Services") to do the same. This Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA") Notice describes the procedures we follow when addressing notifications of claimed copyright infringement pursuant to 17 U.S.C. §512.
1. Designated Copyright Agent
LOCKR designates the following agent to receive notifications of claimed infringement:
Copyright Agent
LOCKR, LLC
1390 Market Street, Suite 200
San Francisco, CA 94102 USA
Email: copyright@lockr.top
Only DMCA notices should be sent to the designated agent. Non-DMCA communications (including support or billing inquiries) must be directed through the usual customer channels.
2. Requirements for a DMCA Notice
To be effective, a notification of claimed infringement must be a written communication that complies with the requirements of 17 U.S.C. §512(c)(3)(A) and includes all of the following elements:
- An electronic or physical signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or a representative list of such works if multiple works at a single online site are covered by a single notification.
- Identification of the material claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access disabled, along with information reasonably sufficient to permit LOCKR to locate the material.
- Information reasonably sufficient to permit LOCKR to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an email address.
- A statement that the complaining party has 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.
- A statement that the information in the notification is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
3. Counter-Notification
If material you uploaded or control was removed or access to it was disabled as a result of a DMCA notice, you may submit a counter-notification in accordance with 17 U.S.C. §512(g). To be effective, a counter-notification must include the information listed below and be delivered to the Designated Agent identified above:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- 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 was disabled.
- 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.
- 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 LOCKR 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.
Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we will promptly provide the complaining party with a copy. Unless the complaining party notifies LOCKR within ten (10) business days that they have filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the allegedly infringing activity, we may restore the removed material.
4. Repeat Infringers
LOCKR terminates, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of Users who are determined to be repeat infringers. We may also limit access to the Services or close accounts of Users who infringe any intellectual property rights of others, whether or not repeat infringement has occurred.
5. Misrepresentations
Under 17 U.S.C. §512(f), any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing may be subject to liability. The same applies to counter-notifications. Filing false claims or counter-claims may result in termination of access to the Services and may expose the filing party to damages, including costs and attorneys' fees.
