This page describes how to submit copyright infringement notices and counter-notices for Helm (the "Service"), operated by Eidolon Publishing ("Eidolon," "we," "us," or "our").
This policy is designed to follow the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) notice-and-takedown framework (17 U.S.C. 512). It applies to copyright claims only.
For the general rules that govern use of the Service, see Terms of Use. For licensing and attribution information, see Licenses & Attributions. For data handling and privacy rights, see Privacy Policy.
1. Scope
This policy covers claims that content available on the Service infringes copyright.
This policy does not cover trademark complaints, privacy/publicity claims, defamation, impersonation, harassment, or other disputes. For those, contact us using the information in Section 10.
We may remove or restrict access to content for reasons described in Terms of Use, even if a DMCA notice is not submitted.
2. Designated DMCA Agent
To submit a DMCA takedown notice or a counter-notice, send it to our designated agent:
Agent legal name: [CONFIRM: DMCA Agent Legal Name]
Mailing address: [CONFIRM: DMCA Agent Mailing Address]
Phone: [CONFIRM: Designated Agent Phone]
Email: contact@eidolonpublishing.com
DMCA notices and counter-notices are accepted by email only at this time.
3. How to submit a takedown notice (17 U.S.C. 512(c)(3))
If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, send a written notice to the designated agent. Email is acceptable.
To help us process your request quickly, include "DMCA Takedown Notice" in the subject line and provide all required elements below. If a notice is missing required elements, we may ask for more information or decline to act on it until it is complete.
Your notice must include substantially the following:
Signature Your physical or electronic signature (or the signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner).
Identify the copyrighted work Identify the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed. If multiple works on the Service are covered by a single notice, you may provide a representative list.
Identify the infringing material and where it is located Identify the material you claim is infringing (or the subject of infringing activity) and provide information reasonably sufficient to let us locate it on the Service. Examples:
Full URL(s) to the exact page(s)
Title of the adventure or entry
The user, submission, or content identifier (if shown in the UI)
Screenshots can help, but URLs are the most important
Your contact information Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, such as:
Name (and company, if applicable)
Mailing address
Telephone number
Email address (if available)
Good-faith statement A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
Accuracy and authority statement (under penalty of perjury) A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
4. What happens after we receive a notice
If we receive a complete notice, we will generally:
Review the notice for completeness (and may request clarification).
Remove or disable access to the material identified in the notice.
Take reasonable steps to notify the user who posted the material that it has been removed or disabled.
Provide the user with information about how to submit a counter-notice.
If we reasonably learn that content on the Service appears to infringe copyright, we may remove or disable access to that content without prior notice and issue a warning to the responsible user.
We may provide the user with a copy of the notice (including the sender's contact information) to allow the user to understand the claim and respond.
We cannot provide legal advice or adjudicate disputes about ownership. If a dispute continues after a counter-notice, the parties may need to resolve it through a court process.
5. Counter-notice process (17 U.S.C. 512(g)(3))
If your content was removed or disabled due to a DMCA notice and you believe the removal was the result of mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notice to our designated agent.
A counter-notice must include substantially the following:
Signature Your physical or electronic signature.
Identify the removed or disabled material and its prior location Identify the material that was removed or disabled and the location where it appeared before it was removed or access was disabled (for example: the URL).
Perjury statement about mistake or misidentification A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
Your contact information and consent to jurisdiction Your name, address, and telephone number, plus a statement that:
you consent to the jurisdiction of the U.S. Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if your address is outside the United States, for any judicial district in which we may be found), and
you will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original notice or that person's agent.
If you submit a counter-notice, we may forward it (including your contact details) to the party who submitted the original notice.
6. Restoration of material (17 U.S.C. 512(g)(2))
If we receive a complete counter-notice, we will generally provide it to the party who submitted the original notice.
Unless we receive notice that the original complaining party has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the allegedly infringing activity relating to the material, we will generally restore the removed material or cease disabling access to it within the DMCA time window (no less than 10 and no more than 14 business days after receipt of the counter-notice).
We do not guarantee restoration in every case. For example, restoration can be delayed or prevented if:
we receive notice of a filed court action,
we are legally required to keep the material disabled,
the material is no longer available on our systems (for example: deleted by the uploader), or
the counter-notice is incomplete.
7. Repeat infringer policy (17 U.S.C. 512(i)(1)(A))
Eidolon maintains and enforces a policy to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, accounts of users who are repeat copyright infringers.
If a user repeatedly uploads or distributes infringing content after warning(s), we may permanently ban that user from the Service and other Eidolon services.
We may also remove or restrict access to content as described in Terms of Use.
8. Standard technical measures (17 U.S.C. 512(i)(1)(B))
We accommodate and do not interfere with standard technical measures used by copyright owners to identify or protect copyrighted works, to the extent required by applicable law.
9. Good faith and misrepresentation (17 U.S.C. 512(f))
Submit notices and counter-notices only when you have a good-faith belief your claim is valid.
Under U.S. law, a party who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or that material was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, may be liable for damages (including costs and attorneys' fees).
