1.3 Requirements. You acknowledge that if you fail to comply with all of the requirements of this Section 1, your DMCA notice may not be valid.
2.1 Counter-Notification. If you believe that your content was removed (or to which access was disabled) is not infringing, or that you have the authorization from the copyright owner, the copyright owner’s agent, or pursuant to the law, to post and use the content, you may send a counter-notification containing the following information to Piksel (“Counter-Notification”). The process for filing a Counter-Notification is governed by Section 512(g) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. To file a Counter-Notification with Piksel, a written communication that sets forth the items specified below must be provided. Please note that pursuant to 17 U.S.C 512(f) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, any person who knowingly, materially misrepresents that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification may be subject to liability, including costs and attorneys’ fees arising out of such misrepresentation.

2.3 Process. After Piksel receives a Counter-Notification, Piksel may forward it to the party who submitted the original claim of copyright infringement. Please note that when Piksel forwards the Counter-Notification, it will include any personal information provided to Piksel, and submitting a Counter-Notification requires unencumbered consent to having such information revealed in this way. Piksel will not forward the Counter-Notification to any party other than the original claimant. After Piksel sends out the Counter-Notification, the claimant must then notify Piksel within ten (10) days that he or she has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the infringer from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material distributed via the Services. If Piksel receives such notification, Piksel will be unable to restore the content to the Services until resolution of any court action. If Piksel does not receive such notification, Piksel may, at its sole discretion, replace or restore access to the content.
