DMCA Policy
Atelier Marlowe respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of ateliermarlowe.com (the "Site") to do the same. We respond promptly to properly submitted notices of alleged copyright infringement. For the operation of our US-based service infrastructure (Shopify), such notices are processed in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 ("DMCA"), 17 U.S.C. §512(c)(3).
How to Submit a Notice of Infringement
The form at the bottom of this page is the designated method for submitting a notice of claimed infringement to us. Using it ensures your notice reaches the right place and is reviewed promptly. To be effective, a notice must include substantially all of the following:
- Identification of the work or protected right you claim has been infringed — or, if multiple, a representative list.
- Identification of the material you claim is infringing, with information sufficient for us to locate it, including the specific URL(s) on the Site.
- Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the rights holder, its agent, or the law.
- A statement that the information in your notice is accurate, and that you are the rights holder or are authorized to act on the rights holder's behalf.
- Documentation evidencing the right you claim (e.g. a copyright registration, registered or unregistered design right, trademark certificate, license, or authorization letter).
- Your physical or electronic signature.
A notice that omits the required information may not be valid or actionable and may not be acted upon. We ask all claimants to use the form below so that every notice can be assessed against these requirements.
Notices Made in Bad Faith
We actively pursue bad-faith notices. A person who knowingly misrepresents that material is infringing may be liable for the resulting damages, costs, and legal fees — including under 17 U.S.C. §512(f) in respect of notices processed through our US-based infrastructure, and under applicable UK law. The sworn statements and supporting documentation required by the form below are recorded with every submission and may be used as evidence against a false notice.
Counter-Notification
If material you posted was removed or disabled as a result of a notice, and you believe this occurred by mistake or misidentification, you may submit a written counter-notification including: your signature; identification of the removed material and the location at which it appeared before removal; a statement that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed by mistake or misidentification; and your name, address, and telephone number.
Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we may restore the material within 10–14 business days unless the original complaining party notifies us that it has commenced legal proceedings to restrain the activity.
Repeat Infringers
In appropriate circumstances, we will terminate the accounts of users determined to be repeat infringers.
