Copyright & DMCA

1. Scope of This Policy

Rocket Small Business Services, LLC, a Connecticut limited liability company ("Rocket," "we," "us," or "our"), operates WrestleLink, including wrestlelink.com, the wrestle.link link-in-bio and short-link service, and related websites, applications, tools, widgets, and services (collectively, the "Services").

This Copyright and DMCA Policy describes how we respond to claims that material available through the Services infringes copyright, how a person whose material has been removed may respond, and the circumstances in which we terminate accounts for repeat infringement. It is written to reflect the notice-and-takedown procedure of the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 512, and applies to material submitted by users of the Services.

Users of the Services may only upload content they own or have permission to use, and repeat infringers may have their accounts terminated. Those two rules are stated here, in the Community Guidelines, in the Content and Upload Rights agreement, and in the Terms of Use, and they mean the same thing in each.

This Policy governs copyright complaints only. Other kinds of complaint are handled under separate processes described in Section 10, and sending a copyright notice about a matter that is not a copyright matter will delay the response you are looking for.

2. Designated Copyright Agent

We have designated an agent to receive notifications of claimed copyright infringement, and have registered that agent with the United States Copyright Office.

• Designated Agent: Copyright Agent

• Organization: Rocket Small Business Services, LLC

• Address: 27 Soundview Road, Ridgefield, CT 06877, United States

• Telephone: 914-755-2234

• Email: copyright@wrestlelink.com

Copyright Office registration number: DMCA-1079767

This registration covers Rocket Small Business Services, LLC and the alternate names Rocket Small Business Services, WrestleLink, rocketsbs.com, wrestle.link, and wrestlelink.com.

Notices sent to any other address, including general support or contact addresses, may not reach the Designated Agent and may not be treated as validly served.

3. What a Valid Notice of Claimed Infringement Must Contain

To be effective, a written notification of claimed infringement must include substantially all of the following:

1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

1. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of those works.

1. Identification of the material claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate that material. For material on the Services, this means the full WrestleLink URL of the page on which the material appears, together with any description needed to identify which item on that page is at issue.

1. Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, including your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.

1. 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 the law.

1. A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

A notification that does not substantially comply with these requirements may not be treated as effective and may not result in removal of material. If your notice is incomplete, we will ordinarily tell you what is missing rather than simply disregarding it, but we are not obliged to do so.

4. Where to Send a Notice

Notices must be sent to the Designated Agent identified in Section 2, at copyright@wrestlelink.com, or in writing to the postal address given there.

We also provide a web form that collects each of the elements listed in Section 3. Using the form is the fastest route and reduces the chance that a notice is incomplete, but it is not the only accepted method — a notice sent by email or post to the Designated Agent is equally valid.

5. What Happens After We Receive a Notice

On receiving a notification of claimed infringement, we will ordinarily:

1. Record the notice, with the date and time we received it, and preserve it as part of the record of the matter.

1. Review it for completeness against Section 3.

1. Remove or disable access to the identified material expeditiously if the notice is substantially complete. We disable public access to the material; we do not destroy it, because the material and the record of it may be needed if the matter is disputed or becomes the subject of legal proceedings.

1. Notify the person who supplied the material promptly, telling them what was removed or disabled, providing a copy of the notice, and explaining that they may submit a counter-notification under Section 6.

1. Record the matter against the account that supplied the material, for the purposes of the repeat-infringer policy in Section 7.

We may act on a notice without first contacting the person who supplied the material. Nothing in this Policy requires us to make a legal judgment about whether the use complained of is or is not infringing, and our removal of material is not a determination that infringement has occurred.

6. Counter-Notification

If your material has been removed or disabled and you believe it was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification to the Designated Agent.

To be effective, a counter-notification must include substantially all of the following:

1. Your physical or electronic signature.

1. Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled, and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or disabled.

1. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material.

1. Your name, mailing address, and telephone number.

1. A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located, or, if your address is outside the United States, for any judicial district in which we may be found.

1. A statement that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notification, or an agent of that person.

What happens next. If we receive an effective counter-notification, we will promptly provide a copy of it to the person who submitted the original notice, and inform them that we will restore the removed material in not less than 10 business days. Unless that person notifies us within that period that they have filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the allegedly infringing activity, we will ordinarily restore the material, or cease disabling access to it, within 10 to 14 business days of receiving the counter-notification.

We provide the counter-notification, including the contact information it contains, to the person who submitted the original notice. That is a requirement of the process, not a choice we make, and you should submit a counter-notification only if you are willing for your name and contact details to be given to the person who complained.

7. Repeat Infringer Policy

We terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are repeat infringers.

For the purposes of this Policy, an account is ordinarily treated as a repeat infringer where three notices of claimed infringement concerning material supplied by that account are upheld within a rolling twelve-month period. A notice is "upheld" where we removed or disabled the material in response to it and either no counter-notification was received, or a counter-notification was received and the material was not restored.

Two qualifications apply, and both are deliberate:

• Multiple notices arising from a single underlying incident are assessed together rather than counted mechanically. Where one act of uploading generates several notices — for example, one gallery of images from a single event drawing separate notices from the same rights holder, or several rights holders complaining about one item — we may treat them as a single matter for the purposes of counting.

• We retain discretion to act sooner in egregious cases, including deliberate or repeated infringement, commercial-scale infringement, or evasion of a previous removal. In such cases an account may be suspended or terminated on fewer than three upheld notices.

Termination for repeat infringement may extend to other accounts operated by the same person, and to listings that person manages. Where an account is terminated, listings that person managed may be returned to an unclaimed state rather than removed, so that the underlying wrestling information remains available to the community.

8. Removal or Disabling While a Claim Is Reviewed

We may remove or disable access to material while a claim concerning it is being reviewed, and before any determination has been reached about whether the material infringes.

Disabling access is not a finding against the person who supplied the material. It is the step the notice-and-takedown process requires of us, and it is reversible: material that is restored under Section 6, or after a notice is withdrawn or found to be incomplete, returns in the state it was in.

Material that has been disabled remains preserved on our systems for the period necessary to deal with the matter and to meet our legal obligations. It is not publicly accessible during that period.

9. Misrepresentation

Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), a person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or that material was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, may be liable for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees.

Do not use this process to remove material you simply dislike, or material that names you but that you do not hold copyright in. Sections 10 and the policies referenced there exist for those situations, and are the faster route to the outcome you are actually seeking.

10. What This Policy Is Not For

Copyright is a narrow right, and several common requests are not copyright matters even though they concern material about you. Each of the following has its own route, and using it will get a faster and more appropriate response than a copyright notice:

• A profile that is wrong, out of date, or should not exist. Use the correction and removal process described in the Profile Claim, Correction and Removal policy. No account is required.

• Somebody impersonating you or holding a profile that is yours. Use the claim process, or the impersonation route in the same policy.

• A photograph of you that you did not take. Being the subject of a photograph is generally not the same as owning its copyright, which usually belongs to the photographer. If your concern is that you did not consent to the image being used, that is an image-removal and likeness matter, handled under the Profile Claim, Correction and Removal policy.

• Privacy and personal-data requests, including access, correction, and deletion. These are handled under the Privacy Policy.

• Trademark and brand complaints, including use of a promotion's name or logo. Send these to hello@wrestlelink.com, not to the Designated Agent.

• General questions, mistakes and technical problems. Use the contact form.

If you are not sure which applies, describe what has happened through the contact form and we will route it.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Policy. The version in force is the one published on this page, and its effective date is shown with it. Material changes to the notice or counter-notice procedures will be reflected here, and the Designated Agent registration will be kept current with the United States Copyright Office.
