Filing a notice
To report content you believe infringes your copyright, send our designated agent a written notice including:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the copyrighted work you claim was infringed.
- Identification of the material on BirdMap you want removed, with enough detail (a URL) for us to find it.
- Your name, address, phone number, and email.
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized by the owner, its agent, or the law.

Counter-notice
If your content was removed and you believe that was a mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice with your signature, identification of the removed material and its former location, a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief it was removed in error, and your contact information and consent to jurisdiction. We may restore the material unless the original complainant files a court action.
Repeat infringers
We may terminate accounts of users who repeatedly infringe copyright.
