Procedure for Making Claims of Copyright Infringement

RPGGen abides by the federal Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) by responding to notices of alleged infringement that comply with the DMCA and other applicable laws. As part of our response, we may remove or disable access to material residing on a site that is controlled or operated by RPGGen that is claimed to be infringing, in which case we will make a good faith attempt to contact the person who submitted the affected material so that they may make a Counter Notification.

Upon receipt of a Counter Notification described below, RPGGen will promptly provide the complaining party with a copy of the Counter Notification. RPGGen will replace the removed material or cease disabling access to the material within 10 to 14 business days following receipt of the Counter Notification, unless our Designated Agent first receives notice from the complaining party that an action has been filed seeking a court order to restrain alleged infringing party from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on the Platform, system, or network.

Before serving either a Notice of Infringing Material or Counter Notification, you may wish to contact a lawyer to better understand your rights and obligations under the DMCA and other applicable laws. The preceding notice requirements are intended to comply with RPGGen's rights and obligations under the DMCA and, in particular, section 512(c), and do not constitute legal advice. Please consult your legal counsel or see Section 512(c) of the Copyright Act to confirm these requirements.

  3. Identification of the URL or other specific location on the Platform where the material that you claim is infringing is located; you must include enough information to allow us to locate the material.
  4. 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.

DMCA - Digital Millennium Copyright Act

Pursuant to the Online Copyright Infringement Liability Limitation Act, RPGGen is not liable for copyright infringement resulting from the conduct of its subscribers or members. Under the Act, RPGGen is required to promptly remove any material stored on its system or network by its members upon the proper notification from copyright owners that such material may be infringing upon valid copyright rights. We enforce a policy that provides for the termination, at our sole discretion, of the accounts of members who are repeat infringers.

Under the Act, RPGGen is not liable for any claim based on RPGGen's good faith disabling of access to, or removal of, material or activity claimed to be infringing or based on facts or circumstances from which infringing activity is apparent, regardless of whether the material or activity is ultimately determined to be infringing. RPGGen will take reasonable steps to promptly notify the subscriber that it has removed or disabled access to the material.

Note that under Section 512(f) any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing may be subject to liability. Additionally, any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification may also be subject to liability.
