Notice of Claims of Intellectual Property Violations

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law.  If you believe in good faith that any materials submitted to the Service and/or the Site infringe your copyright, you (or your agent) may send University Club a notice requesting that the material be removed, or access to it blocked. The notice must include the following information: (a) a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed; (b) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (or if multiple copyrighted works located on the Site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works); (c) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to allow University Club to locate the material on the Site; (d) the name, address, telephone number and email address (if available) of the complaining party; (e) a statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law; and (f) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.  Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.loc.gov/copyright/ for details.  Notices and counter-notices with respect to the Site or the Application should be sent to UniversityClubPrivacy@vistahost.com. We suggest that you consult your legal advisor before filing a notice or counter-notice.  Also, be aware that there can be penalties for false claims under the DMCA.

Please provide all of the information requested above.  No specific form is required to provide University Club with notifications of possible infringement.  However, it will take University Club longer to process your notice if any of this information is not provided, and in some cases, we may not be able to process your notice.  Also please note that, due to security concerns, attachments cannot be accepted.  Accordingly, any notification of possible infringement submitted electronically with an attachment will not be received or processed.

Miscellaneous Provisions

If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, then that provision shall be fully severable from this Agreement and shall not affect the legality, validity, or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement.  Failure by us to enforce any particular term of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any of our rights hereunder.  You agree that, if the rights and obligations of this Agreement are not specifically enforced, we will be irreparably damaged, and therefore you agree that we shall be entitled, without bond, other security or proof of damages, to appropriate equitable remedies with respect to any breach(es), in addition to any other available remedies.  This Agreement (and each supplemental agreement referenced in or referencing these Terms found on the Sites) constitutes the entire agreement between you and University Club with respect to the Site, the Application and the Services.
