The Lasting Home respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of the Site to do the same. We respond to clear and complete notices of alleged copyright infringement in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), 17 U.S.C. § 512.

Notice of alleged copyright infringement

If you believe that material on thelastinghome.com infringes your copyright, please send a written notice to our designated agent (contact information below) that includes all of the following:

  1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner, or a person authorized to act on the owner’s behalf.
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed. If multiple works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of those works.
  3. Identification of the material claimed to be infringing, with sufficient detail to permit us to locate it on the Site — typically the URL of the page where the material appears.
  4. Your contact information: full legal name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
  5. 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.
  6. A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notification is accurate, and that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on behalf of the owner.

Subject line: “DMCA Notice”

Notices missing any required element may be invalid. We may forward complete notices to the user who posted the material in question.

Counter-notification

If you believe material that was removed (or to which access was disabled) is not infringing, or that you have the right to post it, you may file a counter-notification with our designated agent that includes:

  1. Your physical or electronic signature.
  2. Identification of the material that was removed, and the location at which it appeared before removal.
  3. A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
  4. Your full legal name, address, and telephone number, and a statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the federal court in the district where you reside (or, if outside the United States, any judicial district in which the Site may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notification or that person’s agent.

If we receive a valid counter-notification, we may restore the removed material in 10–14 business days unless the original complainant notifies us that they have filed a court action seeking a restraining order against you.

Repeat infringer policy

It is our policy to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users or contributors who are determined to be repeat infringers.

False claims

Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or that material was removed by mistake, may be subject to liability. Please do not make false claims.
