Declaration Statement

Electronic signature

Your electronic signature should match your full name.

By submitting this notice, you state that you have a good faith belief that the reported use described above, in the manner you have complained of, is not authorized by the intellectual property rights owner, its agent, or the law; that the information contained in this notice is accurate; and, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the intellectual property rights at issue.

A report alleging infringement of intellectual property rights must come from the rights owner or someone authorized to report on their behalf (for example: attorney, agent). If you are not the rights owner or their authorized representative, we will not be able to process your report. If you believe others' rights may be infringed, you may wish to ask them to review the intellectual property section of the Help Center.
