DMCA Notice

Classy DMCA Policy

Greetings from the Classy team. This statement of our DMCA policy is meant to provide you with information about the general stance we take toward the many copyright issues that can arise in the context of an online social networking environment. This page also includes forms meant to help you (i) report infringing activity or (ii) protest the removal of content you have previously posted on the classy.org website. As always, thank you for visiting classy.org; we appreciate your time and hope that the resources on this page will be helpful to you.

As a company, we encourage and value each individual’s right to free expression. We do not, however, condone the infringement of others’ legal rights in the name of free expression. We are committed to protecting the legal rights of all of the members of the public we have the privilege of interacting with, including copyright holders.

So, to all of our visitors: Please keep it classy! Don’t post or display content that belongs to someone else!

To copyright holders, we wish to assure you that we are committed to working with you to make sure that infringing activity by those using the classy.org website is kept to a minimum. Since we are a small company and our member base keeps growing every day (hooray!), it’s simply not feasible for us to monitor the activity of each person using our website. If someone using this website has infringed a right that you hold under the Copyright Laws of the United States, please let us know by filling out the appropriate form below and sending it to us. We promise to do our best to work with you to resolve the issue as quickly and fairly as possible.

To repeat infringers, if we find that your use of the classy.org website has involved multiple violations of the copyright laws, or multiple alleged violations, we will terminate your account. Please, just don’t do it.

Important Note: for all those who wish to contact Classy about a copyright issue, please take care to fill out the appropriate form in its entirety; incomplete forms may not be processed. Thank you.
