Removal of or Disabling Access to Material and Notice to User

After receipt of an effective notification of claimed copyright infringement, Winspire may remove or disable access to materials posted by third parties to its Website. In addition, Winspire may, in its sole discretion, notify the individual who posted the material that it has removed or disabled access to the material.

In the event that Winspire provides notification that it has removed or disabled access to material posted by a Website user, the user may send a written counter notification in compliance with the DMCA and this Policy that includes substantially the following:

  • A physical or electronic signature of the user.

  • Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appears before it was removed or access to it was disabled.

  • A statement under penalty of perjury that the user 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.

  • The user’s name, address and telephone number, and a statement that the user consents to the jurisdiction of Federal District Court for the judicial district in which the address is located, or if the user’s address is outside the United States, for any judicial district in which the service provider may be found, and that the user will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the claimed infringement or an agent of such person.

Upon receipt of a valid counter notice, Winspire may send a copy of the counter notice to the original complaining party. Unless Winspire receives timely notice from the original complaining party that the person has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the user from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material, Winspire may replace or restore access to the challenged material, in its sole discretion.

 

TRADEMARK USAGE GUIDELINES

Winspire’s trademarks, service marks and trade dress (collectively, “Trademarks”) are valuable intellectual property assets, and they should only be used pursuant to Winspire’s Trademark Usage Guidelines. Nothing in these Guidelines grants the right to use any Winspire Trademarks in any manner or to acquire any domain names that include any Winspire Trademarks. These Trademark Usage Guidelines may be modified by Winspire from time to time, in Winspire’s sole discretion. Licensees of Winspire and other third parties may be subject to additional use restrictions.

Use of Winspire Trademarks

  • Winspire Trademarks should only be used to refer to Winspire products and services, and only in a manner that is true, accurate, not misleading and fair.

  • The Winspire company logo and its trade dress should not be used without the company’s express written authorization. Likewise, its trademarks and service marks should not be used in their stylized form without the company’s express written authorization; they should be used only in standard text with initial caps or all caps.

  • The Winspire Trademarks should be presented in a manner that makes them stand out from the text around them, such as in initial caps or all caps.
