Copyright Policy / DMCA
House of Hawk LLC. (“Company”) has adopted the following general policy toward claims of infringement with respect to intellectual property owned or controlled by third parties in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). The address of Company’s Designated Agent to Receive Notification of Claimed Infringement (“Designated Agent”) is listed at the end of this policy.
It is Company’s policy to (1) block access to or remove material that it believes in good faith to be the intellectual property of a third party (e.g., copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, etc.) that has been illegally copied and distributed by any of our advertisers, content providers, members or users; and (2) remove and discontinue service to repeat offenders. A repeat infringer is a user for whom HOH has received more than two notices of claimed infringement or for which HOH has had to remove content more than twice. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, HOH reserves the right (pursuant to our **Terms of Use link**) to immediately terminate the account of any user for egregious infringing activities at HOH’s sole determination and discretion.
Report Copyright Infringement
Please only report infringement of your own copyright, or the copyright of someone you are authorized to represent. If you believe that someone else’s copyright is being infringed, please tell them and direct them to this page.
Complainants may notify HOH concerning any Content and/or Name being used on the Website in violation of their rights by sending an email to info@houseofhawk.com.
Providing URLs in the body of an email is the best way to help us locate content quickly.
HOH only shall use information provided by Complainants in accordance with its then-current Privacy Policy and as reasonably necessary to address any allegations contained therein, which may include disclosing some or all of the information to Artists. In most cases, soon after receiving written notice alleging infringement, HOH either will block access to or remove the allegedly infringing Content and/or Name from those web pages identified or, at its election, remove those web pages.
