U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) Policy

Effective as of: September 1, 2020.

 

Medical Technology Solutions, LLC, owner of the website www.medtechsolutions.com (“MTS”), respects the legitimate intellectual property rights of others and expect our users to do the same.

It is our policy to disable and/or terminate the accounts of users who repeatedly infringe the copyrights of others in accordance with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. Section 512 (“DMCA”).  We have adopted an efficient notice and takedown procedure as required by the DMCA and described below.

 

Notice to Owners of Copyrighted Works

The DMCA specifies a legal procedure by which you can request that access be disabled to your copyrighted work(s) that appear without your permission.  There are two parts to this legal procedure: (1) writing a proper DMCA notice, and (2) sending the proper DMCA notice to our designated agent (see designated agent information below).

 

How to Write a Proper DMCA Notice

A proper DMCA notice will notify MTS of particular facts in a document signed under penalty of perjury.  To write a proper DMCA notice, please provide the following information:

• Identify yourself as either:

(a) the owner of a copyrighted work(s), or

(b) a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

• State your contact information, including your true name, street address, telephone number, and email address.
• Identify the copyrighted work that you believe is being infringed, or if a large number of works are appearing, a representative list of the works.
• Identify the material that you claim is infringing your copyrighted work, to which you are requesting that MTS disable access.
• Identify the location of the infringing material, by providing information reasonably sufficient to permit MTS to locate the material.
• State that you have a good faith belief that use of the infringing material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agents, or the law.
• State that the information in your DMCA notice is accurate, under penalty of perjury.
• Sign the notice with either a physical or electronic signature.

Receipt of a Proper DMCA Notice

Upon receipt of a proper DMCA notice, MTS will follow the procedures provided in the DMCA, which specifies a notice and takedown procedure, subject to the right to submit a counter-notification claiming lawful use of the disabled works.

 

Notice and Takedown Procedure

It is expected that all users of any part of MTS’s website will comply with applicable copyright laws.  However, if MTS is notified of claimed copyright infringement, or otherwise becomes aware of facts and circumstances from which infringement is apparent, it will respond expeditiously by removing, or disabling access to, the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity.  MTS will comply with the appropriate provisions of the DMCA in the event a counter-notification is received by its Designated Agent.

 

Notice to Users of MTS’s Website

Pursuant to the Terms of Use located at www.medtechsolutions.com/legal each user agreed to, when he or she used our website or opened an account with MTS, that such user is required to submit only lawfully-acquired content (“User Content”).  User Content may be disabled upon receipt of notice that it infringes a third party’s copyrights.  MTS also respects the legitimate interests of a user’s right to utilize media content lawfully.  Each user faced with a proper DMCA notice will be permitted to present a response to claims of infringement, and obtaining timely restoration of access to User Content that has been disabled due to a copyright complaint.  A user may protest a DMCA notice by submitting a counter-notification as described below.

 

Writing and Submitting a Counter-notification
