    1. Your physical or electronic signature, or a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on your behalf;

    4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit TikiLIVE to identify the use being challenged;

    Upon receipt of notice as described above, TikiLIVE will seek to confirm the existence of the IP on the Site, notify the registered user who posted the content including the IP, and take whatever action, in its sole discretion, it deems appropriate, including temporary or permanent removal of the IP from the Site. A registered user may respond to notice of takedown by showing either (a) that the claimant does not own the IP or (b) that the IP is not infringed. If the registered user succeeds in showing either (a), (b) or (c) then TikiLIVE may exercise its discretion not to remove the IP. If TikiLIVE decides to comply with a takedown request, it will do so within a reasonably expeditious period of time.

     

    TikiLIVE Has No Obligation to Adjudicate IP Claims - User's Agreement to Hold Us Harmless From Claims

    Claimants and users must understand that TikiLIVE is not an intellectual property tribunal. While we may in our discretion use the information provided in order to decide how to respond to infringement claims, we are not responsible for determining the merits of such claims. If a user responds to a claim of infringement by providing assurances that its content is not infringing, the user agrees that if we thereafter restore or maintain the content, the user will defend and hold TikiLIVE harmless from any resulting claims of infringement brought against TikiLIVE.
