Reporting Claims Of Copyright Infringement (DMCA)

Welldone content is based on User Generated Content (UGC). Welldone does not check user uploaded or created content for violations of copyright or other rights. However, if you believe any uploaded content violates your copyright or a related exclusive right, please follow the process below. Welldone reviews reported violations and removes or disables content that is shown to violate third party rights.

Copyright Infringement Notice Requirements

To help us review your report quickly and effectively, a copyright infringement notice ("Notice") should include the following:

  • Identification of your copyrighted work and what is protected under the copyright(s) you are referring to
  • Your copyright certificate(s) or designation(s) and the type, such as registered or unregistered
  • Proof of your copyright ownership, such as the registration number or a copy of the registration certificate
  • A short description of how our user(s) allegedly infringe your copyright(s)
  • Clear reference to the materials you believe are infringing and want removed, such as the service URL, a link to the deliverable provided to a user, etc.
  • Your complete name, address, email address, and telephone number
  • A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law
  • A statement made under penalty of perjury that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner, the owner of an exclusive right that is being infringed, or are authorized to make the complaint on behalf of the owner
  • Your electronic or physical signature

Alternatively, you can submit the Notice electronically to: [email protected]

We will provide the user who is allegedly infringing your copyright with information about the Notice and allow them to respond. If sufficient proof of infringement is provided, we may remove or suspend the reported materials before receiving the user response. If the allegedly infringing user provides a proper counter-notification showing that they are permitted to post the material, we may notify you and then replace the removed or disabled material.

If you fail to comply with all requirements of Section 512(c)(3) of the DMCA, your DMCA Notice may not be effective.

Please be aware that if you knowingly misrepresent that material or activity on the Website is infringing your copyright, you may be held liable for damages, including costs and attorney fees, under Section 512(f) of the DMCA.

Counter-Notification Procedures

If you believe that material you posted on the site was removed or access to it was disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may file a counter-notification with us (a "Counter-Notice") by submitting written notification to our DMCA agent. Under the DMCA, the Counter-Notice must include substantially the following:

  • Your physical or electronic signature
  • Identification of the material that was removed or disabled and the location where the material appeared before it was removed or disabled
  • Enough information for us to contact you, including your name, postal address, telephone number, and, if available, email address
  • A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled because of a mistake or misidentification
  • A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district where your address is located, or if you live outside the United States, for any judicial district where the Website may be found, and that you will accept service from the person, or their agent, who provided the complaint to the Website

The DMCA allows us to restore the removed content if the party who filed the original DMCA Notice does not file a court action against you within ten business days of receiving a copy of your Counter-Notice.

  • Clear reference to the materials you believe are infringing and want removed, such as the service URL, a link to the deliverable provided to a user, etc.

  • A statement made under penalty of perjury that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the trademark owner or are authorized to make the complaint on behalf of the trademark owner
  • Your electronic or physical signature

You can send your Notice electronically to: [email protected]

We will provide the user who is allegedly infringing your trademark with information about the TM Notice and allow them to respond. If sufficient proof of infringement is provided, we may remove or suspend the reported materials before receiving the user response. If the allegedly infringing user provides information showing that they are permitted to post the material, we may notify you and then replace the removed or disabled material. In all such cases, we will act in accordance with applicable law.
