If User believes that content residing on or accessible through the Publisher Learning Platform Services infringes a copyright, please send a notice of copyright infringement containing the following information to the Designated Agent listed below:


  1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright that has been allegedly infringed;

  2. Notify the Member or User that it has removed or disabled access to the content and that repeat offenders will have the infringing content removed from the system; and
  3. Terminate such Member or User's access to the Service’s.

B. Procedure to Supply a Counter-Notice to the Designated Agent:


If the content provider, Member or User believes that the content that was removed or to which access was disabled is either not infringing, or the Member or User believes that it has the right to post and use such content from the copyright owner, the copyright owner's agent or pursuant to the law, the Member or User must send a counter-notice containing the following information to the Designated Agent listed below:

  4. Member or User'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 Member's or User's address is located, or if the Member's or User's address is located outside the United States, for any judicial district in which Publisher Learning Platform 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, Publisher Learning Platform may send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that it may replace the removed content or cease disabling it in 10 business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the Member or User, the removed content may be replaced, or access to it restored, in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at Publisher Learning Platform’s discretion.
