- Identification of the material or link you believe to be infringing in a sufficiently precise manner to allow us to locate that material, including at a minimum, if applicable, the URL of the link shown on the website where such material may be found.
- Adequate information by which we can contact you (including your name, postal address, telephone number, and email address).

- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
- Your physical or electronic signature.
Important: Make sure your notice includes all the information listed above. Under Section 512(c)(3) of the DMCA, a notice that’s missing any of these details may not be effective, and we may not be able to remove the content.
