Copyright & DMCA Policy
NoCoThrive (operated by Blockabit, Ltd.) respects copyright and expects the businesses that submit content here to do the same. This page explains how to send a copyright infringement notice, how a counter-notice works, and our policy on repeat infringers.
Sending an infringement notice
If you believe content on NoCoThrive infringes a copyright you own or are authorized to enforce, email our copyright agent at dmca@nocothrive.com.
Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), your notice must include:
1. Identification of the copyrighted work you claim is infringed (or a representative list, if the notice covers multiple works). 2. Identification of the material you claim is infringing, with enough information for us to locate it: the listing URL is the most useful thing you can give us. 3. Your name, postal address, telephone number, and email address. 4. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law. 5. A statement that the information in the 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.
When we receive a valid notice, we remove or disable access to the identified material and notify the person who submitted it.
Counter-notice
If your content was removed and you believe the removal was a mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice to the same address. Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3), it must include:
1. Identification of the material that was removed and 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, postal address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your district (or, if outside the United States, any district in which we may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who filed the original notice or their agent. 4. Your physical or electronic signature.
If we receive a valid counter-notice, we forward it to the original complainant. Unless they notify us within 10 business days that they have filed a court action seeking to restrain the alleged infringement, we may restore the removed material in 10 to 14 business days.
Misrepresentation
Knowingly and materially misrepresenting that material is infringing (or that it was removed by mistake) carries liability for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees, under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f). Don't send a notice or counter-notice you aren't prepared to stand behind.
Repeat infringers
We have adopted and reasonably implement a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts and listings of users who repeatedly infringe copyright. Repeated valid infringement notices against content a user submits may result in removal of their listing and termination of their access, at our discretion.
Other complaints
This process is for copyright only. For anything else about a listing (inaccurate information, an offensive image, a fraudulent listing), use our contact form.
