CLAIMS OF COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT. The Digital Millennium
Copyright Act of 1998 (the DMCA) provides recourse for
copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet
infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in
good faith that materials hosted by Overland infringe your copyright,
you (or your agent) may send us a notice requesting that the material
be removed or access to it blocked. The notice must include the following
information: (a) a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized
to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly
infringed; (b) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have
been infringed (or if multiple copyrighted works located on the Site
are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such
works); (c) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing
or the subject of infringing activity and information reasonably sufficient
to allow Overland to locate the material on the Site; (d) the name,
address, telephone number and email address (if available) of the
complaining party; (e) a statement that the complaining party has
a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained
of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or law; and
(f) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate
and, under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized
to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly
infringed. If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright
infringement has been filed wrongly against you, the DMCA permits
you to send Overland a counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices
must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA;
see http://www.loc.gov/copyright/ for details. Notices and counter-notices
with respect to the Site should be sent to Legal Department, Overland
Storage, Inc., 4820 Overland Avenue, San Diego, CA 92123, copyright@overlandstorage.com.
We suggest that you consult your legal advisor before filing a notice
or counter-notice. Also, be aware that there can be penalties for
false claims under the DMCA.
