DMCA Compliance Notice
MightyMerchant’s
DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) Compliance
StatementMightyMerchant recognizes and makes every effort to comply with
the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). The DMCA, which was passed
in 1998, protects Internet Service Providers from absolute liability in
copyright infringement cases.
Historically, copyright laws
designate "absolute liability" for violation of copyright rights,
including reproduction, distribution, modification, public performance
and public display of copyrighted material.
The DMCA provides
relief from monetary damages for certain practices. For example, an
Internet webpage could contain copyrighted images used without
permission of the copyright holder. The DMCA keeps the Internet Service
Provider (ISP) from being held liable in such a situation under the
regulations outlined in the Online Copyright Infringement Liability
Limitation Act, available at the U.S. Copyright Office Website:
www.loc.gov/copyright.
The
DMCA limits ISPs from liability for copyright infringement, soley for
transmitting information across the Internet. However, ISPs are expected
to remove material that appears to constitute copyright infringement.
It
is MightyMerchant’s policy to respond to notices of alleged copyright
infringement in compliance with the DMCA. This might include removing or
disabling access to material, alleged to be related to copyright
infringement.
In the event of a copyright infringement claim,
MightyMerchant, in compliance with the DMCA, will make a good faith
effort to contact the site owner of the website that contains the
material so that they may have the opportunity to make a
counter-notification as specified in the DMCA. If no counter-claim is
received within 14 days of notification, or MightyMerchant believes the
claim to be reasonable, MightyMerchant will remove the materials
referenced in the claim.
To file a copyright infringement
notification with MightyMerchant, a written communication by mail or fax
must be received which includes the following:
A link to the page containing copyrighted work that has been infringed and a description of the nature of the infringement.
Address and telephone number of the person making the copyright infringement claim.
Inclusion of the following statement:
"I
have a good faith belief that use of the copyright materials described
above on the allegedly infringing web pages is not authorized by the
copyright owner, its agent, or the law. I swear, under penalty of
perjury, that the information in the notification is accurate and that I
am the copyright owner or am authorized to act on behalf of the owner
of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed."
Signature of copyright owner or authorized agent.
The complaint should be sent via mail or fax to MightyMerchant:
MightyMerchant
Attn: Samuel Raynor
PO Box 13535
Spokane Valley, WA 99213
MightyMerchant will notify the site owner within three business days of receipt of the copyright infringement claim.
The
DMCA provides for counter notification if a site owner feels he or she
is being wrongly accused of copyright infringement. A written
counter-notification letter by fax or regular mail must be sent,
including the information below:
Identification of URLs or material that has been removed or disabled by MightyMerchant.
Name,
address, telephone number, email address and a statement consenting to
the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district
in which your address is located.
Include the following statement:
"I
swear, under penalty of perjury, that I have a good faith belief that
the item identified above was removed or disabled as a result of a
mistake or misidentification and is not infringing on copyright."
The site owner's signature.
The counter-notification should be sent by mail or fax to:
MightyMerchant
Attn: Samuel Raynor
PO Box 13535
Spokane Valley, WA 99213
MightyMerchant
will notify the individual or agent who filed the initial copyright
claim about the counter-notification within 14 business days of receipt
of the counter-notification, and will take action to restore any
material that has been removed, if such action seems reasonable. In
cases where the parties cannot come to agreement on the copyright
infringement claim, MightyMerchant will remove or restore material as
deemed appropriate by the courts.

Server Access Assistance
We
have put together the following guidelines related to server access.
Our top priority is security. We do our best to balance security
considerations with the needs of our customers to update their sites and
download/upload data.
Site Updates - Virtually all
site changes to a MightyMerchant site can be accomplished through the
MightyMerchant site manager. If you have not used the MightyMerchant
site manager or don't remember how to access your site manager, let us
know, and we can help get you going.
FTP Access -
Security is our top priority. As our webservers handle several million
dollars a month in transactions and we are required to conform to
industry guidelines for security, we rarely provide ftp access to
customers or third party vendors. Typically there is very little in the
way of ongoing changes that requires ftp access. If you feel there are
some site changes you are unable to make, let us know what those are,
and we will do our best to help.
Uploading and Downloading Files
- If you need to upload or download files, please give us the details
of your specific needs and we are happy to help. Because our sites are
database-driven, there is typically very little need to access the files
on the web server. Most of what you need should be accessible via the
database.
Third Party Marketing Firms- We are glad
to help our customers and their marketing teams accomplish what they
need. Often, small updates or placement of verification codes, redirect
files, or landing pages, can be done at little or no charge. If a
request will require more significant time or the installation of
advanced functionality, we will let you know the cost before doing any
work.
