Counter-notice

Use this if content of yours was removed after a copyright complaint and you believe the removal was a mistake or a misidentification.

What happens next

We send your counter-notice to the person who complained.
They have to tell us within the statutory window that they have filed a court action seeking an order to keep the material down.
If they do not, we restore your material in 10 to 14 business days.

Anything else we should know

Statements you must make

Good faith, under penalty of perjury (§ 512(g)(3)(C))I state, under penalty of perjury, that I have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed — for example that the work is mine, that I have a license, or that the use is permitted.

Consent to a federal court's jurisdiction (§ 512(g)(3)(D))I consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district in which my address is located — or, if my address is outside the United States, for any judicial district in which Sthetic Creative Group, LLC may be found — and I will accept service of process from the person who gave the original notice, or their agent.

Electronic signature

Type your full legal name. This is your signature on the counter-notice.

Filing a counter-notice puts your contact details in the hands of the person who complained — they need them to serve a court action. Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), a knowing misrepresentation here can carry liability for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees.
