DMCA Policy

Tomato Avocado Salad ("the Site") respects the intellectual property rights of others and is committed to complying with U.S. copyright law, including the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"). This policy outlines the procedures for copyright holders to notify us of alleged infringement and for users to submit a counter-notification if their content has been mistakenly removed.

If you believe that your copyrighted work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement and is accessible via the Tomato Avocado Salad website, please notify us by submitting a DMCA Takedown Notice as described below.

Filing a DMCA Takedown Notice

If you are a copyright owner or an agent thereof and believe that any content hosted on Tomato Avocado Salad infringes upon your copyrights, you may submit a notification pursuant to the DMCA by providing our Copyright Agent with the following information in writing (see 17 U.S.C. 512(c)(3) for further detail):

  1. An electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright's interest.
  2. A description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed, including the URL where the copyrighted work was published or a copy of the copyrighted work itself.
  3. A description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located on the Tomato Avocado Salad website, with enough detail that we may find it (e.g., the specific URL(s) of the infringing content).
  4. Your contact information, including your name, address, telephone number, and email address.
  5. 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.
  6. A statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner's behalf.

Upon receipt of a valid DMCA Takedown Notice, we will promptly remove the allegedly infringing content. We may also notify the content provider (user) who posted the material about your claim.

Counter-Notification

If you believe that your content was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may send us a counter-notification. Pursuant to Sections 512(g)(2) and (3) of the DMCA, your counter-notification must include substantially the following:

  • Your physical or electronic signature.
  • Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location (URL) at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled.
  • 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.
  • Your name, address, and telephone number.
  • A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or if you are outside the U.S., for any judicial district in which Tomato Avocado Salad may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original DMCA notification or an agent of such person.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we will forward it to the party who submitted the original DMCA Takedown Notice. If the complaining party does not file an action seeking a court order against you within 10-14 business days of receiving the counter-notification, we may, at our sole discretion, replace or re-enable access to the removed material.
