Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) Policy

WSO2 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (WSO2) together with its affiliates is committed to uphold and respect intellectual property rights in the content uploaded to the websites owned and managed by WSO2 including wso2.com and wso2.org and WSO2 platforms such as WSO2 Choreo (including Choreo, choreo.dev, choreoapps.dev, choreoapis.dev) and WSO2 Asgardeo (including Asgardeo, asgardeo.dev, asgardeo.io) (“Service”). WSO2 takes very seriously all complaints regarding potential violations of intellectual property rights. 

As an online platform/service provider, WSO2 complies with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) that provides guidelines for online service providers in cases of copyright infringement (https://www.copyright.gov/legislation/dmca.pdf). This policy outlines our procedures for handling copyright infringement claims, including the process for submitting a DMCA notice, counter notices, and our policy on repeat infringement.

Submitting a DMCA Takedown Notice

If you believe that your copyrighted work has been used in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please provide a written notification (DMCA Takedown Notice) to our designated agent:

Copyright Agent, WSO2 LLC 

3080 Olcott Street, Suite C220, Santa Clara, CA, 95054

By phone (+1) 650 745 4499

By Fax (+1) 650 5843894

To be effective, the DMCA Takedown Notice (“Takedown Notice”) must include the following information:

1. Provide the full legal name and physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner (or person authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner).
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed,
3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing and where it is located on the Service.
4. Contact information of the person submitting the notice (“Complainant”): email address, telephone number, and address.
5. Include both of the statements below in the body of the Takedown Notice:

• “I hereby state that I have a good faith belief that the disputed use of the copyrights material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law (eg: as a fair use)”
• “I hereby state that the information in this Takedown Notice is accurate and, under penalty or perjury, that I am the owner, or I am authorized to act on behalf of, the owner, of the copyright or I have an exclusive right under the copyright that is allegedly infringed.”

Submitting a Counter Notice

If you believe that your content on the Service was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, and it is not possible to come to an agreement with the Complainant, you may submit a written counter notice to our designated agent within 10 days from when your content was removed or disabled. The counter notice must include:

1. Your legal name and physical or electronic signature.
2. 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 disabled.
3. 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 misidentification.
4. Your name, address, email address, telephone number and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in California, and that you will accept service of process from the Complainant or an agent of such person.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notice, WSO2 will forward the notice to the Complainant. The Complainant will then have ten (10) days to notify WSO2 that legal action has been filed relating to the alleged infringing material. If WSO2 does not receive any such notification from the Complainant within ten (10) days, WSO2 may at its own discretion restore the material to Service. 

Policy on Repeat Infringement

WSO2 reserves the right to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are repeat infringers of copyright. WSO2 reserves the right to define the criteria by which WSO2 will determine that a person is a “repeat infringer”. In the event that a repeat infringer is defined by statute, law or regulation as applicable to 17 USC s 512, WSO2 will adopt that definition as a minimum standard. 

Final Decision

All decisions regarding copyright infringement and DMCA notices are at the sole discretion of WSO2. We reserve the right to remove allegedly infringing content without prior notice and to terminate a user's account, if warranted, based on our investigation.
