Cher Intellectual Property Policy

Copyright

Cher, Inc. has adopted the general policy toward copyright infringement in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (“DMCA”).

Submitting a Copyright Complaint

If you believe that material or content residing on or accessible through Cher’s websites or services infringes a copyright, please send a notice of copyright infringement to Cher’s designated agent (“Copyright Agent”). The address of the Copyright Agent is listed below.

You should note that if you knowingly make any material misrepresentation in your notification that the material or activity is infringing, you will be liable for any damages, including, without limitation, costs and attorneys’ fees, incurred by us or the alleged infringer as the result of our relying upon such misrepresentation in removing or disabling access to the material or activity claimed to be infringing.

Content of the DMCA Notice

The DMCA should include the following information:

• Identification of the copyrighted work or material claimed to be infringed.
• Identification of the work or material that is claimed to be infringed. The identification should include reasonably sufficient detail to permit Cher to find and verify its existence. Identification should include the URL of the link where the claimed infringed material is located.
• The address, telephone number, and if available, email address, of the notifier.
• A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner asserted is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
• A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and, under the penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
• A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright that has been allegedly infringed.

Action taken by Cher in response to a DMCA Notice

Upon receipt of the DMCA Notice, Cher will take whatever action, in its sole discretion, it deems appropriate, including removal of the challenged material from the Site.

Submitting a Counter-Notice

If the content provider, member or user (collectively “content provider”) receives a notification that any particular content has been removed or to which access was disabled due to a DMCA Notice and the content provider believes that the material is either not infringing or the content provider has the right to post and use such material from the copyright owner, the copyright owner’s agent, or pursuant to the law, the content provider must send a counter-notice containing the following information to the Copyright Agent listed below:

• Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled.
• The location at which the material appeared before it was removed or disabled, including the source address of the content.
• A statement that the content provider has a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled in error.
• The address, telephone number, and if available, email address, of the content provider.
• A statement that the content provider consents to the jurisdiction of Federal District Court for the judicial district in which the content provider’s address is located, or if the content provider’s address is located outside the United States, for any judicial district in which Cher is located, and that content provider will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notification or an agent of such person.
• A physical or electronic signature of the content provider.

Action taken by Cher in response to a DMCA Notice

When Cher receives a valid counter-notice, Cher will forward a copy to the entity who filed the original complaint. If Cher does not receive notice within ten (10) business days that the submitter of the original complaint is seeking a court order to prevent further infringement of the content at issue, Cher will remove the complaint from your account's record, and Cher may replace the content that was removed.
