- 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
- A statement by you 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 the right that is allegedly infringed.
You acknowledge that if you fail to comply with the procedures provided in this subsection for reporting a claimed copyright infringement, your notice may not be valid under the DMCA. See 17 U.S.C. 512(c)(3) for further details.
If you believe that your content that was removed (or access was disabled to) is not infringing, or that you have authorization from the rightful copyright owner, the copyright owner’s agent, or pursuant to law, to post and use the allegedly infringing material in your posted content, you may send a counter-notice containing the following information to the Copyright Agent:
- Your physical or electronic signature;
- Identification or description of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the original location where the material appeared before it was removed or disabled;
- A statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or a misidentification of the material removed or disabled; and
- Your name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address, a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California, and a statement that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.
If a counter-notice is received by the Copyright Agent, CrossFit may send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that it may replace the removed material or cease disabling it in 10 business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the material provider, member or user, the removed material may be replaced, or access to it restored, in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at CrossFit’s sole discretion. See 17 U.S.C. 512(g)(3) for further details.
Our designated Copyright Agent (the “Copyright Agent”) will receive notifications of claimed infringement and counter-notices at 1250 Connecticut Avenue NW, Suite 200, Washington, D.C. 20036 or via email at gcagent@crossfit.com.
