challenges to jurisdiction and venue for any such action
brought by Creative Zone.
SEVERABILITY
If any term or provision in this Agreement is found
to be void, against public policy, or unenforceable by a
court of competent jurisdiction and such finding or
order becomes final and non-appealable, then, the
offending provision shall be deemed modified to the
extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable. If
the offending provision cannot be so modified, then the

performance of this Agreement, the remainder of this

CLAIMS OF COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT
Creative Zone is committed to the
protection of intellectual property rights of third
parties and will remove infringing or unlicensed
materials once an authorized representative of a
copyrights owner properly reports an act of infringement
to us. Additionally, Creative Zone
reserves the right to terminate access to users who are
repeat copyright infringers. Pursuant to section 512 of
the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (17 U.S.C.
512), Creative Zone's Registered Agent
for notification of claims of copyright infringement is
as follows:
Webmaster
email:wmaster@Goobi.com
This information is provided to help copyright owners
report potentially infringing materials posted by users
of the Creative Zone. If you are a
copyright owner, or the authorized representative of a
copyright owner, and you believe that text and/or images
posted on one of the Goobi Websites infringes upon your
copyrights, you may report such allegations to our
Registered Agent.
To be proper, notification of a claim of copyright
infringement must include:
a) a physical or electronic signature of a person
authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner;
b) a list identifying works claimed to have been
infringed;
c) identification of the material that is claimed to be
infringing or to be the subject of the infringing
activity, and information reasonably sufficient to
permit Creative Zone to locate the
material;
d) contact information of the complaining party (i.e.
address, phone number, email);
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 the law; and
f) a statement that the information in the notification
is accurate, 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 proper notification of a claim of copyright
infringement is received, Creative Zone
will remove or otherwise disable access to the allegedly
infringing materials. Additionally, Creative Zone will take reasonable steps to promptly
notify the user that posted the material that such
material has been removed. Creative Zone will give the user the opportunity to provide
counter-notification to the claim of infringement.
Proper counter-notification must include:
a) a physical or electronic signature of the user;
b) identification of the material that has been removed
and the location at which the material appeared before
it was removed;
c) a statement under penalty of perjury that the user
has a good faith belief that the material was removed as
a result of mistake or misidentification of the
material.
d) The user's name, address, telephone number, and a
statement that the user consents to jurisdiction of the
Federal District Court for the judicial district in
which the address is located, or if the user's address
is outside the United States, for any judicial district
in which Creative Zone may be found,
and that the user will accept service of process from
the complaining party or its agent.
If Creative Zone receives proper
counter-notification, a copy of the counter-notification
will be provided to the complaining party who provided
the original notification of alleged infringement.
Unless Creative Zone is notified by the
complaining party that an action seeking a court order
to restrain the user from committing the allegedly
infringing activity has been filed, and absent any
further reason for removal, Creative Zone will replace, or re-enable access to, the removed
material in not less than 10, nor more than 14 business
days following receipt of the counter-notification.
