DMCA Policy

My Passport respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), we will respond to properly submitted notices of alleged copyright infringement concerning content hosted on this website or within the My Passport application.

Filing a DMCA takedown notice

If you believe that content available through My Passport infringes your copyright, please send a written notice to our designated agent containing all of the following:

  1. Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed, or a representative list if multiple works are covered by one notice.
  2. Identification of the material you claim is infringing, with enough information for us to locate it (for example, a URL or a description of where it appears in the app).
  3. Your contact information: full name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
  4. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  5. A statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner's behalf.
  6. Your physical or electronic signature.

What happens next

Upon receiving a complete and valid notice, we will remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material and make a reasonable attempt to notify the user who posted it. We may also terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of repeat infringers.

Counter-notification

If you believe your material was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notification to the designated agent above containing:

  1. Identification of the material that was removed and the location where it appeared before removal.
  2. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
  3. Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the courts in your district (or, if outside the United States, any judicial district in which we may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who filed the original notice.
  4. Your physical or electronic signature.

If we receive a valid counter-notification, we may restore the removed material in 10–14 business days unless the original complainant informs us that they have filed a court action seeking to restrain the allegedly infringing activity.

Misrepresentation

Please note that under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or that it was removed by mistake, may be liable for damages.
