If you believe that your work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please provide the following information in the form of a written notification (pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act “DMCA”) to GCI's copyright agent:

2. Identification of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed;
3. Identification of the location where the original or an authorized copy of the copyrighted work exists, for example the URL or IP of the website where it is posted; you must include enough information to allow us to locate the material.
4. Your address, telephone number, and email address;
5. A statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
6. A statement by you that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on the copyright owner's behalf.

2. The following is the GCI Procedure for handling Copyright Infringement notifications. After receiving a notification as described above,

1. GCI will review to insure conformity with the DMCA jurisdiction of the copyright infringement.
2. If the notification falls within the “notice and take-down” provisions of the DMCA, GCI will respond to remove, or disable access to, the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of the infringing activity.
3. For certain matters that do not fall within the “notice and take-down” provisions of the DMCA, in an effort to assist copyright owners and to provide a service to a subscriber who may be violating terms and conditions of use, GCI may forward a notification to the subscriber.
4. In certain circumstances, GCI may have questions about issues raised by a notification and may contact the originator.
