1. Notification to Whispir.

Please contact our DMCA Agent at:

Our DMCA Agent will only respond to notices that comply with the requirements of the DMCA.

Your written notice must include ALL of the information required by the DMCA:

  • a physical or electronic signature of the person(s) authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive copyright that is allegedly infringed;

  • a description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed;

  • a description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located;

  • adequate information by which we can contact you (including your name, postal address, telephone number and email address);

  • a statement that you have a good-faith belief that use of the copyrighted material is not authorized by the copyright owner or its agent or applicable law; and

Upon receipt of a notice of infringement that complies with the DMCA, Whispir will take steps to remove or disable access to infringing material.

If you knowingly materially misrepresent that material is infringing your copyright, you may be held liable for damages (including costs and attorneys' fees) under Section 512(f) of the DMCA.

2. Counter Notification. If you believe that material was erroneously removed or disabled, you may file a counter notification with Whispir by submitting written notification that includes the information required by DMCA to our copyright agent designated above. Please see www.copyright.gov for more information.

The DMCA allows Whispir to restore the removed content if the party filing the original DMCA Notice does not file a court action against you within ten business days of receiving the copy of your counter notification.
