A copyright owner or authorized representative who believes that content associated with a SohoCloud VPS infringes their rights may submit a copyright complaint for review.

To help us evaluate a report, the complaint should clearly identify the copyrighted work, the allegedly infringing material, the relevant location or URL where applicable, and the basis for the rights holder's claim.

Required Information

A copyright report should contain sufficient information to allow the reported material and the relevant VPS service to be identified.

Review of Copyright Reports

Copyright reports may be reviewed based on the information provided, the applicable law, the nature of the reported content and the relevant service information available to SohoCloud Store.

A report may require additional information or clarification when the submitted information is incomplete or does not sufficiently identify the alleged infringement.

Where a copyright concern is substantiated or where action is otherwise required by applicable law, SohoCloud Store may take appropriate action regarding the affected service.

Depending on the circumstances, this may include requesting removal or modification of the reported material, restricting access to affected resources, requesting corrective action or taking other measures permitted by applicable law and the applicable service terms.

Any counter-notice or dispute process will be handled according to applicable law and the procedures relevant to the specific service and claim.
