Counter Notice Procedure

If you believe your own copyrighted material has been removed from the Platform in error, you may submit a written Counter Notice to Inked’s designated DMCA Agent (as identified above) that includes the following:

  • Identification of the material(s) that has/have been removed or disabled and the location at which the material(s) appeared before it/they was/were removed or disabled;
  •  A statement that you consent to personal jurisdiction and exclusive venue in the state and federal courts in and for Phoenix, Arizona for any action arising out of your claim;
  • A statement that you will accept service of process from the party that filed the Notice or the party’s agent;

  • A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief that the material(s) in question was/were removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material(s) to be removed or disabled;
  • Your physical or electronic signature.

If you send Inked’s designated DMCA Agent a valid, written Counter Notice meeting the requirements described above, Inked will restore your removed or disabled material within 10 to 14 business days from the date Inked receives the Counter Notification, unless Inked’s designated DMCA Agent first receives notice from the party filing the original Notice informing us that such party has filed a court action to restrain you from engaging in infringing activity related to the material in question.
