Our agreements with those that use and/or post content or material to  Jorgenson Group Sites specifically prohibit the uploading, posting, emailing, or transmittal of content or material that infringes the IP of others.

You may want to seek the advice of counsel prior to submitting a Notice or Counter-Notice.

 Jorgenson Group Procedure

When  Jorgenson Group receives a Notice,  Jorgenson Group will make a good-faith effort to forward the Notice to the person reasonably believed to be responsible for posting the allegedly infringing content or material.  Jorgenson Group will use the information in the Notice to determine whether to remove or disable the allegedly infringing content or material. If a Notice is incomplete,  Jorgenson Group is under no obligation to act. When  Jorgenson Group receives a Counter-Notice,  Jorgenson Group will forward the Counter-Notice to the person or entity that submitted the original Notice. If  Jorgenson Group does not receive notice of an action seeking a court order to restrain the allegedly infringing material within ten (10) business days of receiving a Counter-Notice,  Jorgenson Group may, in its sole discretion, reinstate the removed or disabled content or material. If  Jorgenson Group chooses to do so, KWRI will do so within ten (10) and fourteen (14) business days of receiving a Counter-Notice. In some cases,  Jorgenson Group will not be able to reinstate removed or disabled content or material due to technical limitations. In such instances,  Jorgenson Group may choose to notify the person that filed the Counter-Notice that he or she may repost the content or material at his or her discretion.

 Jorgenson Group is not an IP tribunal and has no obligation to adjudicate claims of infringement and is not responsible for determining the merits of such claims. The parties submitting Notices and Counter-Notices are encouraged to settle any disagreements amongst themselves.  Jorgenson Group may, in its sole discretion, use the information provided in Notices and Counter-Notices to determine whether to remove or disable content or material.

Nothing herein is intended to constitute legal advice.
