Please note that the majority of property listing data displayed on this Site is provided through our IDX agreement with Stellar MLS.

Required Elements of a Notice of Claimed Infringement

To be effective under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), a written notice of claimed infringement must include all six of the following elements:

1. Identification of the copyrighted work. A description of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed. If multiple works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of those works.
2. Identification of the infringing material. A description of the material you claim is infringing and that you request be removed or disabled. Include sufficient detail to allow us to locate the material — specifically, the URL(s) of the page(s) on which it appears.
3. Contact information. Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address so we can contact you about the notice.
4. Good-faith belief statement. 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 applicable law.
5. Accuracy and authority statement. A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
6. Physical or electronic signature. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf.

Notices that do not comply with all six statutory requirements may not be acted upon. Submitting a materially false claim may expose you to civil and criminal liability, including damages, costs, and attorneys' fees under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f).

Counter-Notification

If material you posted was removed or disabled in response to a DMCA notice and you believe it was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification under 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3). A valid counter-notification must include:

1. Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the material that has been removed or disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or disabled.
3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have 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.
4. Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court in the judicial district where your address is located (or, if your address is outside the United States, the Southern District of Florida), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original takedown notice or their agent.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we will forward it to the original complaining party and may restore the removed material no sooner than 10 and no later than 14 business days after receipt of the counter-notification, unless we receive notice from the original complainant that they have filed an action seeking a court order to restrain you from engaging in the allegedly infringing activity.

Repeat Infringers

In accordance with 17 U.S.C. § 512(i), Keller Williams Saint Cloud maintains a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are determined to be repeat infringers of the copyrights of others.
