LIMELIGHT respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects our readers to do the same. We respond to clear notices of alleged copyright infringement in accordance with the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and comparable legislation elsewhere.
Our Editorial Position
All written articles on this site are original work produced by our editorial team. Where we reference third-party names, titles, images, or trademarks, we do so for the purposes of commentary, criticism, reporting, and cultural discussion. All such rights remain with their respective owners.
If you nonetheless believe that material on this site infringes a copyright you own or control, please tell us and we will act promptly.
How to File a Notice of Infringement
To be effective, your notice must be in writing and must include all of the following:
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner, or a person authorised to act on their behalf.
- Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed.
- Identification of the material you claim is infringing, with enough detail for us to locate it — a direct URL is best.
- Your contact details: full name, postal address, telephone number, and email address.
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorised to act on the owner’s behalf.
Send your notice to legal@limelightgazette.com with the subject line “DMCA Notice”.
What Happens Next
On receiving a complete notice, we will review it and, where the claim appears valid, remove or disable access to the material in question. We will make a reasonable effort to notify whoever posted it that we have done so.
Counter-Notification
If your material was removed and you believe that removal was a mistake or a misidentification, you may send a counter-notification. It must include your signature, identification of the removed material and where it appeared, a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the removal was in error, and your consent to the jurisdiction of the appropriate court.
Repeat Infringers
We reserve the right to remove content and, where relevant, to restrict access for anyone who repeatedly infringes the rights of others.
A Note on Bad-Faith Claims
Please be aware that under the DMCA, anyone who knowingly makes a material misrepresentation that content is infringing may be liable for damages, including costs and legal fees. Consider whether the use you are reporting may be permitted as fair use or fair dealing before filing.
