  15. Notification of Copyright Infringement

    1. YoungConsulting respects the Intellectual Property Rights of others and expects its Users to do the same. YoungConsulting will respond to clear notices of copyright infringement consistent with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, Title 17, United States Code, Section 512(c)(2) (“DMCA”) and its response to such notices may include removing or disabling access to the allegedly infringing content, terminating the accounts of repeat infringers, and/or making good-faith attempts to contact the user who posted the content at issue so that he may, where appropriate, make a counter-notification.

    2. If Subscriber believes that Subscriber’s work has been used or copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement and such infringement is hosted on the YoungConsulting Site, on sites linked to or from this Site, or in connection with the Services or Materials, please provide, pursuant to the DMCA, written notification via regular mail or via fax (not via e-mail or phone) of claimed copyright infringement to YoungConsulting (contact information below), which must contain all of the following elements:

      1. A physical or electronic signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright interest that is alleged to have been infringed;

      2. A description of the copyrighted work(s) that Subscriber claims have been infringed and identification of what content in such work(s) is claimed to be infringing and which Subscriber requests to be removed or access to which is to be disabled;

      3. A description of where the content that Subscriber claims is infringing is located on the YoungConsulting Site;

      4. Information sufficient to permit YoungConsulting to contact Subscriber, such as Subscriber’s physical address, telephone number and e-mail address;

      5. A statement by Subscriber that he has a good faith belief that the use of the content identified in Subscriber’s notice in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law; and

      6. A statement by Subscriber that the information in his notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that Subscriber is the copyright owner or is authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf.

      Before Subscriber files such a notification, please carefully consider whether or not the use of copyrighted material at issue is protected by the “fair use” doctrine, as Subscriber could be liable for costs and attorneys’ fees should Subscriber file a takedown notice where there is no infringing use. If Subscriber is unsure whether a use of Subscriber’s copyrighted material constitutes infringement, please contact an attorney before Subscriber files Subscriber’s notice.

    3. If Subscriber believes access to Subscriber’s content was disabled or removed by YoungConsulting as a result of an improper copyright infringement notice, please provide, pursuant to the DMCA, written notification via regular mail or via fax (not via e-mail or phone) to YoungConsulting (contact information below), which must contain all of the following elements:

      1. A physical or electronic signature of the subscriber;

      2. Identification of the material that was removed from the YoungConsulting Site and the location of the YoungConsulting Site on which the material appeared before it was removed;

      3. A statement under penalty of perjury that Subscriber has a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled;

      4. Information sufficient to permit YoungConsulting to contact Subscriber, such as Subscriber’s physical address, telephone number and e-mail address; and

      5. A statement that Subscriber consents to jurisdiction of the Federal District court for the district where Subscriber resides (or of the Northern District of Georgia, Atlanta Division, if Subscriber resides outside of the United Sates) and that Subscriber will accept service of process from the person who provided notification under DMCA subsection (c)(1)(C) or an agent of such person.

      Before Subscriber files such a counter-notification, please carefully consider whether or not the use of the copyrighted material at issue is infringing, as Subscriber could be liable for costs and attorneys’ fees in the event that a court determines Subscriber’s counter-notification misrepresented that the material was removed by mistake. If Subscriber is unsure whether use of the material at issue constitutes infringement, please contact an attorney.

    4. For notice of claims of copyright infringement YoungConsulting can be reached as follows:

      5. By mail:

      Mr. David Young
      Young Consulting, Inc.
      180 Interstate North Parkway SE, Suite 400
      Atlanta, Georgia 30339

      By telephone: (770) 321-9818

      Content will not be removed from the YoungConsulting Site in response to phone or email notifications regarding allegedly infringing content, since a valid DMCA notice must be signed, under penalty of perjury, by the copyright owner or by a person authorized to act on his or her behalf. Please submit such notifications by fax or United States Postal Service only and as described above. YoungConsulting should be contacted only if Subscriber believes that Subscriber’s work has been used or copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement and that such infringement is occurring on the Site or on sites linked to or from the Site, or in connection with the Services or Materials.

  17. Indemnification

    18. Subscriber agrees to indemnify and hold YoungConsulting and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, agents, employees or other partners and licensors harmless from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of Subscriber Content, Subscriber’s use of the Site, Services or Materials, Subscriber’s connection to the Site, Services or Materials, the actions of any User, Subscriber’s access to or use of Linked Sites and Subscriber’s connections therewith, any claim that Subscriber Content caused damage to a third party, any dealings between Subscriber and any third parties advertising or promoting via the Site, Services or Materials, Subscriber’s violation of the Terms, or Subscriber’s violation of any rights of another, including any Intellectual Property Rights.

  18. Dispute Resolution

    1. Any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of or relating to the Terms shall be finally determined and settled by binding arbitration in accordance with the then applicable Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) shall be final, binding, non-appealable, and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

    2. All matters relating to Subscriber’s access to, or use of, the Site, Services or Materials shall be governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to conflict of laws principles thereof.

Subscriber agrees to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located in Cobb County, Georgia, for the purpose of litigating such claims or disputes. The parties specifically disclaim the U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

    3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of Subscriber’s or others’ unauthorized access to or use of the Site, Services or Materials in violation of the Terms, Subscriber agrees that YoungConsulting shall be entitled to apply for injunctive remedies (or an equivalent type of urgent legal relief) in any jurisdiction.

  19. Miscellaneous
