MayoFlux LLC, doing business as EventSimpler ("EventSimpler"), respects copyright and expects users to do the same. This Policy describes our process under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. section 512. It is incorporated into the Terms of Service.
1. Copyright contact for DMCA notices
Send copyright notices and counter-notices to:
DMCA Agent: Copyright Agent, MayoFlux LLC d/b/a EventSimpler
Service Provider: MayoFlux LLC d/b/a EventSimpler
Address: 822 Bebout Road, Venetia, PA 15367, United States
Telephone: (412) 444-7721
Email: hello@eventsimpler.com
Online instructions: https://eventsimpler.com/legal/copyright/
This contact is for copyright matters. Other reports should use the routes listed in Section 8.
2. Copyright infringement notice
A copyright owner or authorized agent may request removal or disabling of allegedly infringing material by sending a written notice that substantially includes:
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act for the owner.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed. If one notice covers multiple works at a single Site, provide a representative list.
- Identification of the material claimed to be infringing and information reasonably sufficient for us to locate it, including the exact EventSimpler Site URL and, when possible, the specific page, block, file, image, video, or link.
- Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or law.
- A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act for the owner.
A notice that lacks required information may delay action. You may use the U.S. Copyright Office sample notice as a guide. Do not submit a DMCA notice merely because you dislike content, appear in an image, own a trademark, or dispute facts. The DMCA process applies to copyright claims and is not a general-purpose complaint process.
3. Our response to a notice
When we receive a notice that substantially complies with the DMCA, we may remove or disable access to the identified material, notify the user who posted it, provide the user with a copy of the notice or its substance, and record the matter for repeat-infringer enforcement. We may forward the notice, including the complainant's contact information, to the affected user or a transparency service unless prohibited by law.
We may ask for clarification, decline facially invalid or abusive notices, or remove content under our Terms independently of the DMCA. Removal under our policies may not carry a statutory counter-notice right.
4. Counter-notice
If your material was removed or disabled because of a DMCA notice and you believe the removal resulted from mistake or misidentification, you may send a written counter-notice to the designated agent. It must substantially include:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the material removed or disabled and the location where it appeared before removal.
- A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled because of mistake or misidentification.
- Your name, mailing address, and telephone number.
- A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district where your address is located, or, if your address is outside the United States, the judicial district where MayoFlux LLC is located, and that you will accept service of process from the person who sent the original notice or that person's agent.
We may forward a valid counter-notice to the original complainant. Unless the complainant notifies us that it filed a court action seeking to restrain the alleged infringement, we may restore the material not less than 10 and not more than 14 business days after receiving the counter-notice. Restoration does not mean we determined that the material is lawful or policy-compliant.
5. Repeat-infringer policy
We maintain a policy to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, accounts and users who are repeat infringers. We may consider valid notices, counter-notices, court findings, admissions, obvious infringement, repeated re-uploads, evasion, and other reliable information. We may suspend or terminate before a fixed number of notices when conduct is serious or deliberate, and we may decline termination when notices are defective, withdrawn, successfully countered, or otherwise unreliable.
Account termination may include associated Sites, domains, organizations, devices, payment profiles, or replacement accounts when reasonably necessary to prevent evasion.
6. Misrepresentations and abuse
Knowingly making a material misrepresentation in a DMCA notice or counter-notice may create liability for damages, costs, and attorneys' fees. Do not use this process to censor criticism, resolve trademark disputes, obtain private information, or remove content you do not own. We may restrict or reject abusive reporters and may disclose fraud or threats to appropriate authorities.
7. Preservation and disclosure
We may preserve notices, counter-notices, content identifiers, account information, and related records as reasonably necessary for legal compliance, dispute resolution, repeat-infringer enforcement, safety, and fraud prevention. We may disclose information in response to lawful process, including a valid subpoena or court order.

9. Changes
We may update this Policy. The current version will be posted with its effective date. Changes do not alter statutory rights or obligations that apply to an existing notice.
