Any terms we use in this Policy without defining them have the definitions given to them in the Terms of Service

2.Once Proper Bona Fide Copyright Infringement Notification is Received by the Designated Agent: Upon receipt of a proper notification, we reserve the right to:

b.Notify the account holder who is accused of infringement that we have removed or disabled access to the applicable material; and
c.Terminate such account holder's access to the Services if he or she is a repeat offender.
3.Procedure to Supply a Counter-Notice to the Designated Agent:  If the account holder believes that the material that was removed (or to which access was disabled) is not infringing, or the content provider believes that it has the right to post and use such material from the copyright owner, the copyright owner's agent, or, pursuant to the law, the account holder has the right to send us a counter-notice containing the following information to the Designated Agent:
a.A physical or electronic signature of the subscriber or account holder;
b.Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or disabled;
c.A statement under penalty perjury that the subscriber or account holder has a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled; and
d.Subscriber or account holder’s name, address, telephone number, and, if available, email address, and a statement that such person or entity consents to the jurisdiction of the Federal Court for the judicial district in which the content provider’s address is located, or, if the content provider’s address is located outside the United States, for any judicial district in which Boatsetter is located, and that such person or entity will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.
If a counter-notice is received by the Designated Agent, Boatsetter may send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that Boatsetter may replace the removed material or cease disabling access to it in 10 business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the subscriber or account holder accused of committing infringement, the removed material may be replaced or access to it restored in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at Boatsetter's discretion.Boatsetter Designated AgentAll written notifications of claimed infringement and counter-notifications should be sent to Boatsetter’s Designated Copyright Agent which can be found at:Email: legal@boatsetter.com Phone: 954-626-8477 Attention: Legal Department, Collaborative Boating, Inc., 333 Las Olas Way CU1, Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33301Repeat Infringer PolicyBoatsetter reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate any account holder for actual or apparent infringement of intellectual property rights.
