Accrueretail takes intellectual property rights very seriously and demands the same from all Users. Accrueretail will respond to allegations of copyright violations in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act [17 U.S.C. 512] (the “DMCA”). The DMCA provides a process for a copyright owner to give notification to Accrueretail concerning alleged copyright infringement (“Notice of Infringement”). When a valid Notice of Infringement is received, Accrueretail shall respond under this process by taking down the offending Content. In accordance with the DMCA, upon taking down the Content, Accrueretail shall take reasonable steps to contact the owner of the removed Content so that a counter-notification (“Counter Notice”) may be filed. On receiving a valid Counter Notice, Accrueretail will generally restore the Content in question, unless Accrueretail receives notice from the original provider of the Notice of Infringement that a legal action has been filed seeking a court order to restrain the alleged infringer from engaging in the infringing activity.

THESE NOTICES OF INFRINGEMENT AND COUNTER NOTICES ARE REAL-WORLD LEGAL NOTICES PROVIDED OUTSIDE THE AGREEMENT. Accrueretail MAY PROVIDE COPIES OF SUCH NOTICES TO THE PARTICIPANTS IN THE DISPUTE OR THIRD PARTIES, AT Accrueretail’S DISCRETION AND AS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR BY PROPER LEGAL, GOVERNMENTAL, OR REGULATORY AUTHORITY; THE AGREEMENT DOES NOT PROTECT INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THESE NOTICES.

b. Counter Notice.

If Your Content was removed or access was blocked and you have a good faith belief that it is not infringing on any copyrighted material, you may send Accrueretail a written Counter Notice pursuant to Section 512 of the DMCA. The Counter Notice must contain the information specified below in the following format:

• (i) identify in sufficient detail the Content that Accrueretail has removed or to which Accrueretail has disabled access and the location of the material (e.g., the URL) before it was removed/disabled;
• (ii) provide your name, address, telephone number, and email address;
• (iii) a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court in which your address is located, and a statement that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringing activity;
• (iv) provide a statement, made under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed/disabled as a mistake or misidentification of the material; and
• (v) provide your physical or electronic signature.

The Counter Notice must be submitted to Accrueretail’ Designated Copyright Agent by mail or email as set forth below:

Mail: info@accrueretail.com

IX. Trademark Notice

You agree that in the event that Accrueretail receives a written demand alleging that any of Your Content infringes upon, dilutes, tarnishes, or otherwise violates a party’s trademark rights, Accrueretail may in its sole discretion, remove or disable access to such Content until Accrueretail receives either:

(a) written confirmation from the party sending such demand that the demand is withdrawn or has been resolved or

(b) you submit sufficient evidence to satisfactorily rebut the allegations contained in such demand, the adequacy of such evidence to be determined by Accrueretail in Accrueretail’ sole discretion and which Accrueretail may reject for any reason without penalty or liability to you.

The procedures of the DMCA apply only to copyrighted works and expressly exclude any other forms of intellectual property rights, including any rights in trademarks; the process hereinabove is intended only to provide a convenient mechanism for addressing trademark disputes and does not, and shall not, be construed, as imposing any obligation on Accrueretail under the DMCA with regards to response times or the like. Accrueretail is under no obligation to restore access to any removed Content even if you provide the aforementioned rebuttal.

X. Derivative Work

To the extent that you create any Derivative Work absent an explicit agreement with Accrueretail, such Derivative Work shall be owned by Accrueretail and all right, title, and interest in and to each such Derivative Work shall automatically vest in Accrueretail.
