Infringement Policy

We will respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the requirements set forth in this DMCA Policy. We do not act as an arbiter or judge of disputes about intellectual property rights. It is our policy to remove content posted by users on our https://www.chinamist.com website and future related websites(these websites shall be individually and collectively referred to in this DMCA Policy as the “Site”), which content we believe in good faith is infringing a third party’s copyright. By removing content, as a prudential matter, we are not endorsing or validating a claim of infringement. If we remove content from the Site, we will make a good-faith attempt to contact the party responsible for posting or displaying the content so such party may make a counter-notification as provided for below.

In addition, it would help if you included a copy of the copyright Certificate of Registration for your work, if any, or other information that supports your claim that your work is protected by copyright and that you are the owner of that copyright or are authorized to act on behalf of the owner. If your notice contains the required information, and if we have a good-faith belief that the content is infringing your copyright, we will remove the content from the Site’s web page(s) that is(are) listed in your notice. Unless prohibited by law, we may provide all of the information in your notice (including without limitation your identifying information) to the user who posted the content.

Counter Notification

The provider of affected content may make a counter notification by writing to our Designated Agent via mail and/or e-mail. If you make a counter notice, please note that you may be liable for damages, including without limitation attorneys’ fees and costs, if you materially misrepresent that your content is not infringing the copyright of a third party.

(e) Sign the written notification physically or electronically.

After reviewing your counter notice, we may, in our discretion, reinstate the content on the Site. In doing so, we are not making a determination as to whether any copyrights or other IP rights have or have not been infringed. Unless prohibited by law, we may provide all of the information in your counter notice (including without limitation your identifying information) to the party who complained of the infringement.

Notice of Repeat Infringement and Account Termination

We will, if appropriate, suspend or terminate repeat infringers’ access to the Site or ability to post content to the Site.
