Copyright Protection Policy

At Hawaii PDF Forms, we steadfastly respect the intellectual property rights of creators and rightsholders. We understand the importance of copyright law and are committed to fostering a platform where copyright content is used appropriately and lawfully. Our Copyright Protection Policy outlines the procedures in place to address allegations of copyright infringement and to support the protection of copyrighted content across our digital landscape.

Copyright Infringement Notices

If you believe that your copyrighted work has been uploaded, posted, or otherwise made available on the Hawaii PDF Forms website without your permission, you may submit a notice of copyright infringement. Such notices should comply with the digital millennium copyright act (DMCA) and must include specific information to be considered valid. This includes a detailed description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed upon, a description of where the infringing material is located on our site, your contact information, a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law, and a sworn statement that the information in your notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner, or are authorized to act on behalf of the owner.

Procedure for Handling Copyright Notices

Upon receipt of a valid copyright infringement notice, Hawaii PDF Forms will take appropriate actions in accordance with copyright law and our Copyright Protection Policy. This frequently involves the removal of or disabling access to the material claimed to be infringing. We will also make a good faith attempt to notify the individual or entity who posted the alleged infringing content, providing them with an opportunity to respond with a counter-notification if they believe the content was removed in error or they have the right to use the content in question.

Counter-Notification

Those who have received a notification of infringement may provide a counter-notification if they believe the claim of infringement is incorrect. Counter-notifications must be written and include documentation proving the material is not infringing or that the individual has the rights to use the material. This includes a statement under penalty of perjury that the individual has a good faith belief that the item was removed due to a mistake or misidentification of the material. Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, Hawaii PDF Forms will provide the original complaining party with a copy so that they may take further legal action if they choose. If we do not receive any such notification within an allotted time, we may restore the material to our website.

Contact Information for Copyright Complaints

All copyright infringement notices and counter-notifications must be directed to our designated agent at dmca@hawaiipdfforms.com. It is our policy to document all notices of alleged infringement on which we act. We encourage rightsholders and their agents to contact us with any concerns related to copyrighted material on our website. Protecting the rights of copyright owners while supporting a free and accessible internet remains a paramount concern for Hawaii PDF Forms.
