4. Notice and Takedown Procedure
If a copyright owner believes that their work has been infringed on The Platform, they may submit a written notice to The Service's designated copyright agent. This notice must include specific information as outlined in the DMCA, including a description of the copyrighted work, the location of the infringing material, the contact information of the copyright owner, and a statement under penalty of perjury that the information in the notice is accurate. Upon receiving a valid notice, The Service will take appropriate action, which may include removing or disabling access to the infringing content.
