Prv8Sup (“Prv8Sup,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects intellectual property rights and expects users of its website, software, technical resources, documentation, setup guides, and related services (collectively, the “Services”) to respect those rights as well.
This Policy establishes Prv8Sup’s procedures for responding to copyright infringement claims and addressing alleged violations in accordance with applicable copyright law, including the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), where applicable.
1. Neutral Technology Platform
Prv8Sup operates as a neutral technology intermediary providing internet-based technology, software-related services, technical information, configuration assistance, and setup guidance.
Prv8Sup does not claim ownership of third-party television programming, movies, sporting events, broadcasts, audiovisual works, or other copyrighted media.
Prv8Sup does not host or store copyrighted media files on its own servers.
Where the Services interact with third-party technologies, applications, URLs, media players, networks, or external resources, such third parties remain independent from Prv8Sup unless expressly stated otherwise.
The availability of technical functionality through Prv8Sup does not constitute authorization to access, reproduce, distribute, transmit, publicly perform, or otherwise use copyrighted material without permission.
2. User Responsibility for Content and Licensing
Users are solely responsible for ensuring that their use of content through any technology associated with the Services complies with applicable copyright laws.
Users are expected to obtain all necessary:
- Licenses;
- Permissions;
- Subscriptions;
- Authorizations; and
- Other legal rights
required to access or use third-party copyrighted material.
Prv8Sup does not grant users any ownership rights, licenses, or permissions in third-party copyrighted content merely because a device, application, software platform, media player, or other technology may be technically capable of accessing such content.
Users may not knowingly use the Services to facilitate copyright infringement or other unlawful activity.
3. Copyright Infringement / DMCA Takedown Notices
A copyright owner, or a person authorized to act on behalf of a copyright owner, who believes that copyrighted material is being infringed through or in connection with the Services may submit a written copyright infringement notification to Prv8Sup.
DMCA notices must be submitted electronically to:
DMCA Designated Contact:
dmca@prv8sup.com
To be effective under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)(A), a copyright infringement notification must contain substantially all of the following six elements:
- Signature
A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed. - Identification of the Copyrighted Work
Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online location are covered by one notification, a representative list of those works. - Identification of the Allegedly Infringing Material
Identification of the material claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity, together with information reasonably sufficient to enable Prv8Sup to locate or identify the material, reference, link, account, or activity concerned. - Complainant Contact Information
Information reasonably sufficient to permit Prv8Sup to contact the complaining party, such as the complainant’s address, telephone number, and, if available, email address. - Good-Faith Statement
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, the copyright owner’s agent, or applicable law. - Accuracy and Authority Statement
A statement that the information contained in the notification is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive right allegedly infringed.
A notice that does not substantially contain the required information may be incomplete and may prevent or delay Prv8Sup from evaluating the complaint.
4. Response to Copyright Notices
Upon receipt of a sufficiently complete and valid copyright infringement notice, Prv8Sup will review the submission in good faith and take appropriate action where legally and technically applicable.
Such action may include:
- Removing or disabling access to material under Prv8Sup’s control;
- Removing or disabling references or links under Prv8Sup’s control;
- Restricting functionality associated with reported activity;
- Contacting an affected user;
- Requesting additional information from the complainant;
- Suspending an account;
- Terminating an account; or
- Taking any other action reasonably appropriate under applicable law.
Prv8Sup intends to respond expeditiously to valid and actionable copyright infringement notices.
Because Prv8Sup does not host third-party copyrighted media files on its servers, Prv8Sup may not have the technical ability to remove content hosted independently by third parties. Where appropriate, Prv8Sup may instead disable access to a reference, resource, or functionality under its control.
5. Counter-Notice Procedure
If a user’s material, account functionality, reference, or access has been removed or disabled following a copyright complaint and the user believes that the action occurred because of mistake or misidentification, the user may submit a written counter-notification.
Counter-notices must be sent to:
A valid counter-notification should contain substantially the following:
- The user’s physical or electronic signature;
- Identification of the material or access that was removed or disabled;
- Identification of where the material or functionality appeared before removal or disabling;
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the user has a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification;
- The user’s name and contact information required by applicable law;
- Where required under the DMCA, the user’s consent to the jurisdiction of the applicable United States Federal District Court; and
- Where required, a statement that the user will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original infringement notification or that person’s authorized agent.
Upon receipt of a legally sufficient counter-notification, Prv8Sup may provide a copy of the counter-notification to the party that submitted the original copyright complaint.
Where the statutory DMCA counter-notice process applies, Prv8Sup may restore the affected material or access not less than 10 and not more than 14 business days after receiving a valid counter-notification unless Prv8Sup first receives notice that the original complainant has filed an appropriate court action seeking to restrain the alleged infringement.
6. Repeat Infringer Policy
Prv8Sup maintains a policy providing for the termination, in appropriate circumstances, of users who repeatedly infringe copyrights or repeatedly violate the intellectual property rights of others.
Depending on the circumstances, Prv8Sup may:
- Issue warnings;
- Restrict account functionality;
- Suspend access;
- Remove affected materials or references;
- Permanently terminate accounts; and
- Prevent terminated users from creating replacement accounts where reasonably practicable.
Accounts determined to belong to repeat copyright infringers may be permanently terminated.
Prv8Sup reserves the right to terminate an account immediately where the seriousness, frequency, or nature of the infringement warrants such action.
7. Misrepresentations and Abuse of the Notice Process
Copyright notices and counter-notifications are legal communications.
Persons submitting copyright notices or counter-notices must ensure that the information provided is accurate and submitted in good faith.
Knowingly making material misrepresentations concerning alleged infringement, removal, mistake, or misidentification may result in liability under applicable law.
Prv8Sup reserves the right to reject or request clarification concerning notices that appear to be:
- Fraudulent;
- Abusive;
- Submitted in bad faith;
- Materially incomplete; or
- Unrelated to material or functionality within Prv8Sup’s control.
8. Third-Party Services
The Services may reference, support, or interact with independently operated:
- Applications;
- Websites;
- Devices;
- Media players;
- Software;
- Online platforms; or
- Other third-party resources.
Prv8Sup does not control third-party services and does not assume responsibility for copyright compliance, licensing arrangements, availability, content, policies, or conduct of independent third parties.
References to third-party products or technologies do not imply ownership, sponsorship, endorsement, affiliation, or authorization unless expressly stated.
9. No Authorization of Copyright Infringement
Nothing contained in Prv8Sup’s:
- Software;
- Setup instructions;
- Device guides;
- Technical documentation;
- Compatibility information;
- Tutorials;
- Customer support; or
- Other technical resources
should be interpreted as authorizing infringement of copyright or other intellectual property rights.
Technical information is provided solely to facilitate lawful use of compatible technologies.
Each user remains responsible for determining whether the content they access is properly licensed and legally available to them.
10. No General Monitoring Obligation
Except where required by applicable law, Prv8Sup does not undertake a general obligation to proactively monitor every user’s activity or independently inspect every third-party resource potentially accessible through compatible technologies.
Prv8Sup nevertheless reserves the right to investigate credible infringement reports and take appropriate action upon obtaining legally sufficient notice or other reliable information concerning unlawful activity.
11. Copyright Contact Information
All copyright infringement notices, DMCA notices, counter-notifications, and copyright-related communications should be submitted electronically to:
For DMCA and copyright inquiries, please contact us via email only at dmca@prv8sup.com.
12. Changes to This Policy
Prv8Sup may amend this DMCA Compliance and Copyright Policy from time to time to reflect changes in applicable law, technology, operational practices, or the Services.
The current version will be identified by the “Last Updated” date appearing at the beginning of this Policy.
