DMCA policy

This Digital Millennium Copyright Act policy (“Policy”) applies to the soulsticemindfulness.com website (“Website” or “Service”) and any of its related products and services (collectively, “Services”) and outlines how this Website operator (“Operator”, “we”, “us” or “our”) addresses copyright infringement notifications and how you (“you” or “your”) may submit a copyright infringement complaint.

Protection of intellectual property is of utmost importance to us and we ask our users and their authorized agents to do the same. It is our policy to expeditiously respond to clear notifications of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) of 1998, the text of which can be found at the U.S. Copyright Office website.

What to consider before submitting a copyright complaint

It's important to note that if you have any doubts or uncertainties regarding whether the material you are reporting is actually infringing, seeking legal advice before filing a notification with us is advisable.

As per legal requirements, we may also decide to share a copy of your notification or counter-notification with the account holder that is allegedly involved in the infringing activity, or for public disclosure. If you're concerned about the potential exposure of your information, it's recommended to engage the services of an agent to report any instances of infringing material on your behalf.

Notifications of infringement

If you believe that any material available on our Services infringes your copyrights, you can submit a written copyright infringement notification ("Notification") using the contact details below pursuant to the DMCA. Please note that filing a DMCA complaint is the beginning of a pre-defined legal process, and we will review your complaint for accuracy, validity, and completeness. If your complaint satisfies these requirements, we may take action, including removal or restriction of access to allegedly infringing material, as well as permanent termination of repeat infringers' accounts. However, we may require a court order from a court of competent jurisdiction before taking any action, as determined by us in our sole discretion. It is recommended that you take your own backups as we may not be able to provide a backup of the terminated account's data.

When we take action to remove or restrict access to material or terminate an account based on a copyright infringement notification, we will make every effort to notify the user affected by the action. This may include providing the user with a complete copy of the notification, including the notifier's name, address, phone number, and email address, along with instructions for filing a counter-notification. However, we reserve the right to take no action if a DMCA notification fails to meet all of the DMCA's requirements.

Counter-notifications

If we receive a counter-notification from the alleged infringer, we may forward a copy of the counter-notification to the original complaining party informing that person that we 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 alleged infringer, the removed material may be replaced or access to it restored in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notification, at our sole discretion.

Changes and amendments

At our discretion, we may make changes to this Policy or its terms regarding the Website and Services. We will indicate the updated date at the bottom of this page when we do so. We may also choose to provide notice to you through the contact information you have provided or in other ways at our discretion.

The revised Policy will become effective immediately upon posting unless otherwise specified. Your use of the Website and Services after the effective date of the revised Policy (or any other specified act) will signify your consent to the changes.
