TAKEDOWN POLICY



Industry Dive (“Industry Dive”) respects the intellectual property rights of
others and expects others to do the same. Accordingly, and pursuant to the
Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. 512 (the “DMCA”), Industry Dive
(also identified herein as “we” or “us”) has adopted the following policy. If
you (with end users, claimants, or visitors identified herein as “You”) believe
that any materials made accessible by Industry Dive have been used or copied in
a way that infringes your copyright or other intellectual property rights, You
may request removal of those materials from Industry Dive by providing us with
the following information:

 * An electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf
   of the owner of the copyright or other intellectual property interest;
 * A description of the copyrighted work or other intellectual property that You
   claim has been infringed;
 * A description of where the material that You claim is infringing is located
   on Industry Dive’s site or service (including the specific URL of each item
   in dispute, which should help us to quickly locate the relevant content);
 * Your address, telephone number, and email address;
 * A statement by You that You have a good faith belief that the disputed use is
   not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
 * A statement by You, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information
   in your notice is accurate and that You are the copyright or intellectual
   property owner or are authorized to act on the copyright or intellectual
   property owner’s behalf.

FAILURE TO INCLUDE ALL OF THE ABOVE INFORMATION, ESPECIALLY SPECIFIC URLS WHERE
CONTENT MAY BE FOUND, WILL RESULT IN A DELAY IN THE PROCESSING OF YOUR DMCA
NOTIFICATION AND MAY RESULT IN YOU HAVING TO REPEAT SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE
PROCESS. INDUSTRY DIVE WILL NOT TAKE RESPONSIVE ACTION TO REMOVE CONTENT UNTIL
ALL OF THE NECESSARY INFORMATION IS PROVIDED.


NOTICE AND TAKEDOWN

If Industry Dive receives proper notification of claimed copyright infringement,
it will respond expeditiously by removing, or disabling access to, the material
that is claimed to be infringing, as described below, or to be the subject of
infringing activity. Industry Dive will also comply with the appropriate
provisions of the DMCA in the event a counter-notification is received, as
further described below. In addition, Industry Dive may, at its discretion, deny
access to its site by disablement and/or termination of accounts.


DESIGNATED AGENT

Notice of claims of copyright or other intellectual property infringement can be
delivered as follows, by email, fax or standard mail:

Sean Griffey
1255 23rd Street, NW, Suite 550, Washington, DC 20037
Phone:  202-331-2480
Fax:  888-987-3483
Email: dmca@industrydive.com

Upon receipt of proper notification of claimed infringement, Industry Dive will
follow the procedures outlined herein.


COPYRIGHT COUNTER-NOTICES

If content You posted on the site was removed due to a claim(s) of copyright or
intellectual property infringement and You would like to dispute that removal,
the process for counter-notifications is governed by Section 512(g) of the DMCA:

 * To file a counter-notification with us, You must provide a written
   communication that sets forth the items specified below.
 * Please note that under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, any person who knowingly
   materially misrepresents that material or activity was removed or disabled by
   mistake or misidentification may be subject to liability. Please also be
   advised that we enforce a policy that provides for the termination in
   appropriate circumstances of users (and removal of content from users) who
   are infringers. Accordingly, if You are not sure whether certain material
   infringes the copyrights of others, we suggest that You first contact an
   attorney.


ELEMENTS OF COUNTER-NOTIFICATION

To expedite our ability to process your counter-notification, please use the
following format (including section numbers):

 * Identify the specific URLs of material that Industry Dive has removed or to
   which Industry Dive has disabled access.
 * Provide your full name, address, telephone number, email address and, if You
   are a registered Industry Dive user, the user name of your Industry Dive
   account.
 * Provide a statement that You consent to the jurisdiction of the courts of the
   District of Columbia, and that You will accept service of process from the
   person who provided notification to Industry Dive in accordance with the
   process outlined above or an agent of such person.
 * Include the following statement: “I swear, under penalty of perjury, that I
   have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a
   result of a mistake or mis-identification of the material to be removed or
   disabled.”
 * Sign the notice. If You are providing notice by email, a scanned physical
   signature or a valid electronic signature will be accepted. Send the
   communication to the following address:

Sean Griffey
1255 23rd Street, NW, Suite 550, Washington, DC 20037
Phone:  202-331-2480
Fax:  888-987-3483
Email: dmca@industrydive.com

After we receive your counter-notification, we will forward it to the party who
submitted the original claim of copyright infringement. Please note that when we
forward the counter-notification, it may include any of your identifying
information set forth in the counter-notification. By submitting a
counter-notification, You therefore consent to having such identifying
information revealed in this way.

After we send out the counter-notification, the claimant must then notify us
within ten (10) days that he or she has filed an action seeking a court order to
restrain You from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on
the site. If we receive such notification, we will be unable to restore the
items. If we do not receive such notification, we may, but are not obligated to,
reinstate the disputed item(s).


FOREIGN COUNTER-NOTIFICATION

If You reside outside of the United States, please understand that filing a
counter-notice may lead to legal proceedings between You and the complaining
party to determine ownership. Therefore, please be aware that there may be
adverse legal consequences in your country and/or the United States of America
if You make a false or bad faith allegation by using this process. Please also
be advised that we enforce a policy that provides for the termination in
appropriate circumstances of users who are infringers. So, if You are not sure
whether content You posted on the site is being infringed, or are otherwise
unsure of whether to file a counter-notification using these procedures, we
recommend You first contact a lawyer knowledgeable in the laws of the United
States and the District of Columbia. If You do wish to file a counter-notice,
You should follow the process set forth above under the heading “Elements of
Counter-Notification.”
