DMCA Notices

FLREMA complies with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), 17 U.S.C. § 512. We respond to valid notices of claimed infringement and remove or disable access to material that is the subject of a valid notice.

1. Designated agent

Pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(2), FLREMA has designated the following agent to receive notifications of claimed infringement:

DMCA Designated Agent
Florida Real Estate Marketing Association, Inc.
37601 Burhans Road, Eustis, FL 32736
Email: dmca@flrema.org (alternate: info@flrema.org)

FLREMA's DMCA agent registration with the U.S. Copyright Office DMCA Designated Agent Directory is pending. Until that registration is on file, please use the contact information above and we will treat it as if filed.

2. Filing a takedown notice

To submit a notice of claimed infringement, send to the agent above a written communication containing substantially the following:

1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or the person authorized to act on their behalf.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (or, if multiple works at a single online site are covered by a single notice, a representative list of such works).
3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit FLREMA to locate the material (URL or specific location on the Services).
4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit FLREMA to contact you (mailing address, telephone number, email address).
5. A statement that you have 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.
6. A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

3. Counter-notification

If material you posted to the Services was removed in response to a DMCA notice and you believe the removal was the result of mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification under 17 U.S.C. § 512(g) to the agent above. Your counter-notification must contain substantially the following:

1. Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the material that was removed or disabled and the location where it appeared before removal.
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, mailing address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if your address is outside the United States, for any judicial district in which FLREMA may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original notification under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(1)(C) or an agent of that person.

4. Repeat infringer policy

FLREMA maintains a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of members who are determined to be repeat infringers.

5. False notices

Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), any person who knowingly materially misrepresents (i) that material or activity is infringing, or (ii) that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, may be subject to liability for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees, incurred by FLREMA and by the alleged infringer or copyright owner who is injured by the misrepresentation. FLREMA reserves all rights against false notices and counter-notices.
