Take Down Procedure
The "xD Network"* implements the following "notification and takedown" procedure upon receipt of any notification of claimed copyright infringement. The "xD Network"* reserves the right at any time to disable access to, or remove any material or activity accessible on or from any "xD Network"* or any Materials claimed to be infringing or based on facts or circumstances from which infringing activity is apparent. It is the firm policy of the "xD Network"* to terminate the account of repeat copyright infringers, when appropriate, and the "xD Network"* will act expeditiously to remove access to all material that infringes on another's copyright, according to the procedure set forth in 17 U.S.C. 512 of the "DMCA". The "xD Network"*'s DMCA Notice Procedures are set forth in the preceding paragraph. If the notice does not comply with 512 of the DMCA, but does comply with three requirements for identifying sites that are infringing according to 512 of the DMCA, the "xD Network"* shall attempt to contact or take other reasonable steps to contact the complaining party to help that party comply with the notice requirements. When the Designated Agent receives a valid notice, the "xD Network"* will expeditiously remove and/or disable access to the infringing material and shall notify the affected user. Then, the affected user may submit a counter-notification to the Designated Agent containing a statement made under penalty of perjury that the user has a good faith belief that the material was removed because of misidentification of the material. After the Designated Agent receives the counter-notification, it will replace the material at issue within 10-14 days after receipt of the counter-notification unless the Designated Agent receives notice that a court action has been filed by the complaining party seeking an injunction against the infringing activity. The "xD Network"* reserves the right to modify, alter or add to this policy, and all users should regularly check back to these Terms and Conditions to stay current on any such changes.

DMCA Counter-Notification Procedure
If the Recipient of a Notice of Claimed Infringement ("Notice") believes that the Notice is erroneous or false, and/or that allegedly infringing material has been wrongly removed in accordance with the procedures outlined above, the Recipient is permitted to submit a counter-notification pursuant to Section 512(g)(2)&(3) of the DMCA. A counter-notification is the proper method for the Recipient to dispute the removal or disabling of material pursuant to a Notice. The information that a Recipient provides in a counter-notification must be accurate and truthful, and the Recipient will be liable for any misrepresentations which may cause any claims to be brought against the "xD Network"* relating to the actions taken in response to the counter-notification.

To submit a counter-notification, please provide Our Designated Copyright agent the following information:
a specific description of the material that was removed or disabled pursuant to the Notice;
a description of where the material was located within the "xD Network"* or the Content before such material was removed and/or disabled (preferably including specific url's associated with the material);
a statement reflecting the Recipient's belief that the removal or disabling of the material was done so erroneously. In the event that the alleged infringer identified in an intended DMCA Notice is, itself, operating as a "Service Provider" within the meaning of 17 U.S.C. 512(k)(1), the "xD Network"* requests that any such DMCA Notices relating to alleged infringement by third party users, customers or subscribers of such service providers be submitted directly to the DMCA Agent designated by the service provider instead of the "xD Network"*.

Modifications to Policy
The "xD Network"* reserves the right to modify, alter or add to this policy, and all affected persons should regularly check back regularly to stay current on any such changes.
