1. Introduction

Math Tools ("we," "our," or "us") respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects our users to do the same. This Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA") Policy explains our procedures for addressing claims of copyright infringement on our website, math-tools.com (the "Service").

We will respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the DMCA and other applicable laws. If you believe that your copyrighted work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please follow the procedures outlined below.

2. Copyright Policy

We respect the intellectual property rights of others and prohibit users from uploading, posting, or transmitting any content that infringes upon the copyrights of others. We will respond to valid DMCA takedown notices and, in appropriate circumstances, terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.

If you believe that content on our Service infringes your copyright, you may submit a DMCA takedown notice to our designated agent as described below.

3. Identification of Infringing Material: Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material (e.g., specific URLs or page locations).

We will process valid takedown notices promptly and in good faith. However, we reserve the right to reject notices that do not comply with DMCA requirements or that we determine in good faith are invalid.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we will:

1. Forward the counter-notification to the original complainant
