What happens next

When we get a request that looks valid, we’ll promptly take the item down while we look into it, and we’ll write back to let you know what we did.

Repeat infringer policy

It is our policy to suspend or terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts and submission privileges of people who repeatedly infringe copyrights. We keep a log of every valid copyright notice and counter-notice, including the date, the item, and who submitted it. A submitter who is the subject of two valid notices that were not successfully countered will be suspended from contributing to the archive, and any further valid notice, or a single flagrant case, can lead to permanent termination. Material from a suspended or terminated contributor may be removed.

Technical measures

We accommodate and do not interfere with standard technical measures that copyright owners use to identify or protect their works.

How to send a copyright notice

Send your notice to our designated agent by email at legal@coloradoradioarchive.com, or by mail to the address shown under “Our designated agent.” You can also use the contact page, but email or mail directly to the agent is best. A complete notice under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. 512(c)(3)) includes all six of these:

1. Your physical or electronic signature (typed is fine) as the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on the owner’s behalf.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work you say was infringed, such as the title of the recording, photo, or article, and where it was published or can be found. If several works are involved, a representative list is fine.
3. Identification of the material you say is infringing and where it is on our site, including the web address (URL) of the page, with enough detail for us to find it.
4. Your 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 way complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
6. A statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on the owner’s behalf.

Please be aware that anyone who knowingly misrepresents that material is infringing may be liable for damages under 17 U.S.C. 512(f). If your request isn’t a copyright claim (for example, you appear in an item and would like it removed or corrected), send us the web address, a short description, and how to reach you, and we’ll look into it.

If you think we removed something by mistake

You can send a counter-notice to the same designated agent, by email or mail. It must include:

1. Your physical or electronic signature (typed is fine).
2. Identification of the material that was removed and where it appeared before it was removed.
3. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
4. Your name, mailing address, and telephone number.
5. A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district where your address is located (or, if your address is outside the United States, any judicial district in which we can be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who sent the original notice or that person’s agent.

When we receive a valid counter-notice, we’ll send a copy to the person who made the original notice and tell them we will restore the material unless they file a court action. We’ll restore it not less than 10 and not more than 14 business days after we receive your counter-notice, unless our designated agent first receives notice from that person that they have filed a court action seeking an order to keep the material off the site.
