Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) Policy

The DMCA

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) creates a standardized process for copyright holders

(including software developers) to ask Boardwalk Travel Agency (“Boardwalk Travel”) to take down infringing content.

You can find more information about the DMCA at

the U.S. Copyright Office’s official website.

As with all legal matters, it is always best to consult with a professional about your specific questions or

situation. We strongly encourage you to do so before taking any action that might impact your rights. Our

guides are NOT legal advice and shouldn’t be taken as such.

Accurate Information

The DMCA requires that you swear to the facts in your notice of infringement under penalty of perjury. It is a

federal crime to intentionally lie in a sworn declaration. (See U.S. Code, Title 18, Section 1621). Submitting

false information could also result in civil liability—that is, you could get sued for money damages.

Investigate

Millions of users and organizations pour their hearts and souls into the content they create using Boardwalk

Travel. Filing a DMCA notice of infringement against such is a serious legal allegation that carries real

consequences for real people. Because of that, we ask that you conduct a thorough investigation and consult

with an attorney before submitting a takedown request to make sure that the use isn’t actually permissible.

A great first step before sending us a takedown notice is to try contacting the user directly.

No Automated Bots 

You should have a trained professional evaluate the facts of every takedown notice you send. If you are

outsourcing your efforts to a third party, make sure you know how they operate, and make sure they are not

using automated bots to submit notices in bulk. These notices are often invalid and processing them results in

needlessly taking down content.

Counter Notices

Any user affected by your takedown notice may decide to submit a counter notice. If they do, we will re-enable

their content within 14 days unless you notify us that you have initiated a legal action seeking to restrain the

user from engaging in infringing activity relating to the content on Boardwalk Travel.

The Determination

Boardwalk Travel exercises little discretion in the process other than determining whether the notices meet the

minimum requirements of the DMCA. It is up to the parties (and their lawyers) to evaluate the merit of their

claims, bearing in mind that notices must be made under penalty of perjury.

DMCA Takedown Notice

If someone else is using your copyrighted content in an unauthorized manner on Boardwalk Travel , please

send an email notification to [email protected]. You may include an attachment if you like, but please also

include a plain-text version of your letter in the body of your message. Please include the following

information into the notice:

To submit a notice of claimed copyright infringement, you will need to provide us with the following

information:

1. A physical or electronic signature (typing your full name will suffice) of the copyright owner or a

person authorized to act on their behalf;

2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (e.g., a link to your original

work or clear description of the materials allegedly being infringed upon);

3. Identification of the infringing material and information reasonably sufficient to permit Twitter to

locate the material on our website or services;

4. Your contact information, including your address, telephone number, and an email address;

5. A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner asserted is not

authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and

6. A statement that the information in the complaint is accurate, and, under penalty of perjury, that you

are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

If you must send your notice by physical mail, you can do that too, but it will take substantially longer for us to

receive and respond to it. Notices we receive via plain-text email have a much faster turnaround than PDF

attachments or physical mail. If you still wish to mail us your notice, our physical address is:
