DMCA Copyright Policy

Sonark Marine (“we,” “us,” “our”) respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of sonarkmarine.com to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”), we respond to valid notices of alleged copyright infringement.

How to Submit a DMCA Takedown Notice

If you believe content on our website infringes your copyright, you may submit a written notification to our designated DMCA Agent. Your notice must include the information below (required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)):

1. Your physical or electronic signature (typing your full legal name is acceptable for electronic notices).
2. Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed (or a representative list, if multiple works).
3. Identification of the material you claim is infringing, and information reasonably sufficient to locate it (URL(s) required).
4. Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
6. A statement that the information in the notice is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner’s behalf.

Counter-Notification (If You Believe a Mistake Was Made)

If you believe your content was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification. Your counter-notice must include:

1. Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the material removed/disabled and the location where it appeared before removal (URL(s)).
3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed/disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
4. Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of your local federal district court (or if outside the U.S., a district where we may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the original complainant.

Upon receiving a valid counter-notice, we may forward it to the original complainant. If they do not file a court action within the time allowed by the DMCA, we may restore the content at our discretion.

Repeat Infringers

In appropriate circumstances, we may disable or terminate access for users who are repeat infringers.

Misrepresentations

Please note that submitting a false DMCA notice or counter-notice may have legal consequences. If you are unsure whether content infringes your rights, consider consulting legal counsel.
