Employee Status Change Form

DMCA Notice Procedure

Respecting intellectual property rights is fundamental to the mission of the Employee Status Change Form website. To uphold these values and comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), a designated procedure has been established for the submission of complaints concerning content hosted on our platform. If you believe your copyright has been infringed upon by our website, please follow the outlined steps to submit a notice.

Submitting a DMCA Notice

To file a DMCA notice, prepare a written document that includes the following necessary information:

  • A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf.

  • Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed.

  • Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing, with enough detail so that we can locate it on the site.

  • Your contact information, including your address, telephone number, and an email address.

  • A statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.

  • A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

Where to Send Your Notice

Notices of alleged copyright infringement should be sent directly to our designated agent via email to dmca@employeestatuschange.com. Upon receipt of a compliant notice, it is our policy to remove or disable access to the infringing material, notify the content provider, member, or user that it has been removed, and, in appropriate circumstances, terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.

Counter-Notice Procedure

If you receive a notice of copyright infringement relating to content you have posted on our site and believe the claim is invalid, you may submit a counter-notice. The counter-notice must include:

  • Your physical or electronic signature.

  • Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled.

  • A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or a misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled.

  • Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for the judicial district in which the address is located, or if your address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which the service provider may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.

If a counter-notice is received by the DMCA agent, a copy may be sent to the original complaining party, informing them that the site may replace the removed content or cease disabling it in 10 business days. Afterward, the removed content may be replaced, or access to it restored in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at our discretion.
