DMCA Notice and Takedown Procedure

CK Film & Entertainment LLC respects intellectual-property rights and complies with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (17 U.S.C. § 512). This page describes how to submit a DMCA notification of claimed infringement and how to submit a counter-notification.

Designated Agent

We have designated the following agent to receive notifications of claimed copyright infringement.

Email is the primary channel for receipt of notices. Mailing address and telephone are on file with the U.S. Copyright Office’s online directory pending completion of registration. Email-only DMCA contact is permitted under 37 CFR § 201.38(b)(2)(ii) when at least one electronic-address option is listed in the Copyright Office directory.

Filing a notice of claimed infringement

If you believe content on watch.ckindiefilms.com infringes your copyright, send our designated agent a written notice that includes all of the following, as required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3):

1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner, or a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (or a representative list, if multiple works).
3. Identification of the material claimed to be infringing, with information sufficient to locate it (e.g. the URL of the page or film).
4. Your contact information — address, telephone, email.
5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
6. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notification is accurate and that you are authorized to act on behalf of the rights owner.

Counter-notification

If you believe your content was removed in error, you may submit a counter-notification including the elements required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3): your signature; identification of the material removed and its prior location; a statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification; your name, address, and telephone; and consent to the jurisdiction of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky.

Repeat-infringer policy

We will, in appropriate circumstances, terminate the accounts of users we determine to be repeat infringers. A user is presumed to be a repeat infringer after two valid DMCA strikes within any 12-month period.

Misrepresentations

17 U.S.C. § 512(f) provides that any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or that material was removed by mistake, may be liable for damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees.
