To help us review and respond to your notice efficiently, please provide complete and accurate information regarding the copyrighted work and the allegedly infringing material.

A copyright infringement notice should include identification of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed or, if multiple copyrighted works are involved, a representative list of those works.
Please identify the material on BankBright.org that you believe infringes your copyright and provide the exact URL or URLs where the material appears so that we can locate it.

Review and Removal of Content
After receiving a valid and sufficiently detailed copyright infringement notice, BankBright.org may review the reported material and take appropriate action where necessary.
Depending on the circumstances, we may remove, disable access to, modify, or investigate allegedly infringing material. We may also contact the person or party responsible for the material if additional information is required.
Submission of a copyright complaint does not guarantee immediate removal of content. We reserve the right to review the validity and completeness of each request before taking action.

If material you submitted or control has been removed or disabled as a result of a copyright complaint and you believe that the material was removed because of a mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter notification where permitted by applicable law.
A counter notification should identify the material that was removed or disabled and provide the location where the material appeared before it was removed.
The counter notification should include your name, address, telephone number, email address, a statement made under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled because of mistake or misidentification, and your physical or electronic signature.
Additional information or legal statements may be required depending on the circumstances and applicable law.
Repeat Infringement
BankBright.org may take appropriate action regarding users, contributors, or other parties who repeatedly submit or publish material that infringes the intellectual property rights of others.
Where appropriate, such action may include removing content, restricting access, terminating publishing privileges, or taking other measures reasonably necessary to protect intellectual property rights.
False or Misleading Claims
Please do not knowingly submit false, misleading, or fraudulent copyright infringement notices or counter notifications.
Submitting materially false claims may result in legal consequences under applicable law. If you are uncertain whether particular material infringes your copyright, you should consider obtaining advice from a qualified legal professional before submitting a formal notice.
