- Identification of the material removed and the location at which it appeared.
- A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.

- A statement that you will accept service of process from the original complainant.
Repeat infringers
Consistent with 17 USC §512(i), we maintain a policy of terminating accounts of users who are repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.
Misuse
Submitting a knowingly false notice may give rise to liability under 17 USC §512(f) (United States) or under the Indian Penal Code provisions for criminal misrepresentation. Don't do it.
