Process Summary
TigerLRM (also referred to as “we”, or “us”, or “our”) respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”), the text of which may be found on the U.S. Copyright Office website at http://www.copyright.gov/legislation/dmca.pdf, TigerLRM will respond expeditiously to claims of copyright infringement committed using our website, and/or related services if such claims are reported to TigerLRM's copyright agent, identified in the sample notice below.
If you are a copyright owner, or are authorized to act on behalf of one, or authorized to act under any exclusive right under copyright, please report any alleged copyright infringements taking place on any tigerlrm.com-hosted website (each, a “Site” and together, our “Sites”) by completing the following DMCA Notice of Alleged Infringement (each a "Notice") and delivering it to TigerLRM’s copyright agent. Upon receipt of a Notice, we will attempt to notify the user who posted the allegedly infringing material, and take such other action, in our sole discretion, that we deem appropriate, which may include removal of the challenged content from our Sites. Please note that a TigerLRM user has the right to request us to re-enable the material, and it shall be up to our discretion to re-enable such material.

First Steps to avoid pitfalls…

If you are not the copyright owner (or the authorized representative of the owner) you cannot report an alleged copyright infringement to us. If you believe that any content on any of our Sites infringes another party's copyright, you should advise the copyright owner directly. Please note that you may be liable for damages, including court costs and attorneys’ fees, if you materially misrepresent that content on a website is copyright infringing. When in doubt, you should consult an attorney. In any event, if you believe your copyrights are being infringed, we strongly urge you to contact the user directly.
