Contents of Notice:

The DMCA requires that all notices of alleged copyright infringement must be in writing. When informing the designated agent of an alleged copyright infringement, the complainant must:

(1) Identify the copyrighted work that allegedly has been infringed. If multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are involved, please provide a list of the works on that site.

(2) Describe the material that is claimed to be infringing and provide sufficient information to permit Soul Era to locate that material.

(3) Provide your contact information, including an address, telephone number, and, if available, an e-mail address.

(4) Certify or include a statement that the complainant has a good faith belief that the use of the copyright-protected material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, the owner’s agent, or law.

(5) Certify that the information that you have provided Soul Era is accurate. The complainant should attest under penalty of perjury that they are authorized to enforce the copyrights that have allegedly have been infringed.

(6) Include a physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or person authorized to act on behalf of the owner.
Before the complainants allege an infringement, they should consult copyright materials to confirm that the use is, in fact, infringing.
