4. Counter Notification

If you believe your content was removed in error, you may submit a counter notification. Your counter notice must include:

• Identification of the removed material and its location before removal
• Statement under penalty of perjury that the material was removed by mistake or misidentification
• 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 of the United States, for any judicial district in which PNG Valley may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original DMCA notification or that person's agent
• Your physical or electronic signature

After receiving a valid counter notification, PNG Valley may restore the material in accordance with applicable law unless the original complainant notifies us that court action has been filed.

5. Our Process

When we receive a valid DMCA notice:

• We will review complete notices promptly and may request additional information where necessary
• If valid, we will remove or disable access to the infringing content
• We will notify the user who posted the content
• We maintain records of DMCA notices for legal compliance
• Repeat infringers may have their access terminated

PNG Valley maintains a process for receiving and responding to valid copyright infringement notices in accordance with applicable law.

6. False DMCA Claims

Filing a false DMCA notice is a serious matter. Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), any person who knowingly misrepresents that material is infringing may be liable for damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees.
