9. Digital Millennium Copyright Act
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA” found at 17 U.S.C. § 512) provides that owners of copyrighted works who believe that their rights under U.S. copyright law have been infringed may report alleged infringements (“Notification”) to service providers like Metronet. Once such a notice is received, service providers automatically have certain obligations. Accordingly, in accordance with the DMCA and other applicable laws, Metronet maintains a policy that provides for the termination of Internet services, under appropriate circumstances, if customers are found to be a repeat infringer or if customer’s Internet services are used repeatedly for infringement. Metronet may terminate a customer’s Internet service under this policy at any time with or without notice. This policy does not affect any other rights Metronet may have.
DMCA Copyright Notifications:
If you are a copyright owner or an agent of a copyright owner and you believe that your rights under U.S. copyright law have been infringed, you may submit a Notification pursuant to the DMCA. After receiving a Notification alleging infringing material resides on Metronet’s network, Metronet will, to the extent required by applicable law, remove or disable access to the material and take reasonable steps to promptly notify the customer that the material has been removed or access to it disabled.
After receiving Notifications regarding repeated infringement through unauthorized file sharing, including peer-to-peer file sharing, relating to a specific customer account, Metronet will take action to prevent repeated infringement. Such action may include temporary or permanent termination of the customer account.
Under the DMCA, anyone who knowingly makes misrepresentations regarding alleged copyright infringement may be liable to Metronet, the alleged infringer, and the copyright owner for damages incurred as a result of the misrepresentation.
You may direct DMCA Notifications to Metronet’s designated agent as follows:
Metronet
Attn: Regulatory Department
8837 Bond Street
Overland Park, KS 66214
E-mail: abuse@metronet.com
Phone: (877) 407-3224
Under DMCA subsection 512(c)(3), a notification of claimed copyright infringement must be provided in writing to Metronet’s above-listed designated agent and must include substantially the following:
a. A physical or electronic signature of the owner of or a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
b. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that site.
c. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit Metronet to locate the material.
d. Information reasonably sufficient to permit Metronet to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which the complaining party may be contacted.
e. A statement that the complaining party has 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.
f. A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is the owner of or is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
DMCA Counter-Notifications
A customer may provide a counter notification to a Notification provided under DMCA subsection 512(c)(1)(C) by providing a written communication to Metronet's designated agent (identified above) that includes substantially the following:
a. A physical or electronic signature of the customer.
b. Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled.
c. A statement under penalty of perjury that the customer has a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled.
d. The customer's name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that the customer consents to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which the service address is located, and that the customer will accept service of process from the person who provided the notification under DMCA subsection 512(c)(1)(C) or an agent of such person.
After receiving a compliant counter notification, Metronet will forward a copy of the counter notification to the copyright owner. If the copyright owner informs Metronet that it has initiated an action seeking a court order against the customer, Metronet will take no additional action, and any accused infringing material will continue to be blocked until that action is resolved. If Metronet does not receive notice from the copyright owner that an action has been initiated against the accused customer, Metronet will inform the customer that any removed material may be replaced by the customer, and Metronet will take steps to restore access to any blocked materials.
Non-Notification related DMCA questions may be sent to the following:
