Copyright & DMCA Policy
Konero Analytics & Machine Learning LLC respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of CoursePortify to do the same. This page describes how copyright owners can submit takedown notices under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"), 17 U.S.C. § 512, and how users can submit counter-notices.
1. Scope
CoursePortify stores user-uploaded course content (Common Cartridge packages, PDFs, HTML, DOCX, and similar materials) for short-term processing. While uploads are auto-deleted after 48 hours, while they are present we host user content within the meaning of the DMCA safe harbor.
By uploading content to CoursePortify, you represent that you own the rights to that content or have a license to translate or evaluate it. See our Terms of Service §7 and Acceptable Use Policy.
2. Notice of claimed infringement
If you believe content uploaded to CoursePortify infringes a copyright you own, please send a written notice to our designated agent (see §5) that includes all of the elements required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3):
- A physical or electronic signature of the owner or an authorized agent.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (or, for multiple works, a representative list).
- Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity, with information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material.
- Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, including an address, telephone number, and email address.
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of the owner.
Incomplete notices may not be actionable. Knowingly making a material misrepresentation that material or activity is infringing may subject you to liability under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f).
3. Our response
- We will acknowledge complete notices within five (5) U.S. business days.
- If we determine that a notice is facially valid, we will remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material expeditiously.
- We will take reasonable steps to notify the user who uploaded the material of the takedown.
- We will keep a record of repeat infringers and may suspend or terminate the accounts of users we determine, in our reasonable discretion, to be repeat infringers, consistent with 17 U.S.C. § 512(i).
4. Counter-notice
If you are the user whose content was removed and you believe the removal was the result of a mistake or misidentification, you may submit a written counter-notice to our designated agent that includes all of the elements required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3):
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the material that has been removed and the location at which it appeared before removal.
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
- Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the U.S. federal district court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if outside the United States, for the District of Colorado), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notice or an agent of that person.
Upon receipt of a complete counter-notice we will forward it to the original complainant and may restore the removed material in 10–14 U.S. business days unless the complainant first files an action in court seeking a restraining order against the user.
