Copyright and DMCA Policy

Last updated: 15/08/2026

Taylor’s Trailblazing Travels respects copyright and other intellectual-property rights.

This page explains how to report material on the website that you believe infringes copyright. It also describes the process for notices submitted under the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act, where that law applies.

1. General copyright complaints

If you believe that content on the website infringes copyright, please send a written complaint containing enough information for us to understand and investigate the matter.

Your complaint should identify:

  • The copyrighted work.
  • The material you believe is infringing.
  • The page on which the material appears.
  • Your name and contact information.
  • The basis on which you own the copyright or are authorised to act for the owner.
  • The outcome you are requesting.

Send general copyright complaints to:

Email: taylorstrailblazingtravels@gmail.com

3. Submitting a DMCA notice

To submit a notice under section 512 of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, provide a written communication containing substantially the following information:

  1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorised to act on the owner’s behalf.
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed. If the notice covers several works on the website, provide a representative list.
  3. Identification of the material claimed to be infringing, together with information reasonably sufficient for us to locate it. Please include the precise page address wherever possible.
  4. Information reasonably sufficient for us to contact you, such as your name, postal address, telephone number and email address.
  5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorised by the copyright owner, the owner’s agent or the law.
  6. A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are authorised to act on behalf of the owner.

Incomplete notices may delay our ability to investigate or respond.

4. What may happen after a notice

After receiving a sufficiently complete notice, we may:

  • Review the identified material.
  • Request additional information.
  • Remove or restrict access to the material.
  • Contact the person who supplied or published the material.
  • Send that person a copy of the notice.
  • Take any other action reasonably required by law.

Submission of a notice does not guarantee that material will be removed. We may consider applicable copyright exceptions, licences, ownership information and other relevant circumstances.

5. Counter-notification

If material that you supplied has been removed or disabled following a DMCA notice and you believe this happened because of mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notification.

A counter-notification should contain substantially the following:

  1. Your physical or electronic signature.
  2. Identification of the material removed or disabled and the location at which it appeared before removal.
  3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled because of mistake or misidentification.
  4. Your name, address and telephone number.
  5. A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the United States Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located or, if your address is outside the United States, for any judicial district in which the website operator may be found.
  6. A statement that you will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original notice or that person’s agent.

Send the counter-notification to the agent or copyright contact identified above.

6. Restoration following a counter-notification

Where the DMCA process applies, we may send the counter-notification to the person who submitted the original notice.

The removed material may be restored after no fewer than 10 and no more than 14 business days after receipt of a valid counter-notification, unless the original complainant informs us that court proceedings have been started to restrain the allegedly infringing activity.

7. Repeat infringement

Where users are able to upload or publicly submit material, we may restrict or terminate access for repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.

We may also remove content or prevent further submissions where we reasonably believe that copyright has repeatedly been infringed.

8. False or misleading statements

Submitting a knowingly false or materially misleading infringement notice or counter-notification may result in legal consequences.

You should consider obtaining independent legal advice if you are unsure whether the use of material is infringing, licensed or permitted by law.

9. Non-US copyright claims

The DMCA is a United States law. Copyright complaints from other jurisdictions may be considered under the law applicable to the website operator, the material and the parties involved.

You may still use the general copyright-reporting process on this page if you are outside the United States.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes to the website, our contact details or applicable copyright procedures.

The latest version will be published on this page with a revised update date.
