Last updated: June 9, 2026
1. Overview
Plagiarism Checker Plus respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of plagiarismcheckerplus.com (the "Site") to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 ("DMCA"), 17 U.S.C. Section 512, we have adopted the following policy for addressing claims of copyright infringement.
If you believe that any content available on or through our Site infringes your copyright, you may submit a formal takedown notice to our designated agent using the process described in this policy. We will respond to valid notices promptly and take appropriate action, which may include removing the allegedly infringing content and terminating repeat infringers’ access to our Services.
2. Designated Copyright Agent
All DMCA notices and counter-notices must be sent to our designated copyright agent. You may contact us by email or post:
Designated Agent: Copyright Agent, Plagiarism Checker Plus
Website: plagiarismcheckerplus.com
Email: contact@plagiarismcheckerplus.com
For your notice to be effective, it must comply with the requirements set out in Section 3 below. Notices that do not include all required elements may be disregarded.
3. How to Submit a DMCA Takedown Notice
If you are a copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of one, and you believe content on our Site infringes your copyright, please submit a written notice containing all of the following elements as required by 17 U.S.C. Section 512(c)(3):
- An electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright interest.
- Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed. If multiple works are covered by a single notice, a representative list of such works is acceptable.
- Identification of the material on our Site that you claim is infringing, with sufficient detail to allow us to locate it. Please include the specific URL or page address where the infringing content appears.
- Your contact information, including your full name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
- A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement that the information in your notice is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf.
Important: Submitting a false or misleading DMCA notice may expose you to legal liability, including claims for damages under 17 U.S.C. Section 512(f). If you are unsure whether material on our Site infringes your copyright, we recommend seeking legal advice before submitting a notice.
4. Our Response to Takedown Notices
Upon receiving a complete and valid DMCA notice, we will:
- Promptly review the notice to confirm it meets the statutory requirements
- Remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing content
- Notify the user who posted the content (if applicable) that the content has been removed
- Provide the user with a copy of the notice and information about submitting a counter-notice
We aim to process valid notices within a reasonable timeframe. We reserve the right to restore content if we determine that a notice was submitted in error or bad faith.
5. How to Submit a Counter-Notice
If you believe that content you posted was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notice to our designated agent. A counter-notice must be a written communication that includes all of the following elements as required by 17 U.S.C. Section 512(g)(3):
- Your electronic or physical signature.
- Identification of the material that was removed or disabled, and the location at which it appeared before removal (for example, the specific URL).
- A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
- Your full name, mailing address, and telephone number.
- A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the 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 we may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original DMCA notice or their agent.
Important: Submitting a false counter-notice may also expose you to legal liability under 17 U.S.C. Section 512(f). If you are unsure whether content was removed in error, we recommend consulting a qualified attorney before submitting a counter-notice.
6. Our Response to Counter-Notices
Upon receiving a complete and valid counter-notice, we will:
- Forward a copy of the counter-notice to the person who submitted the original DMCA notice
- Inform the original complainant that we may restore the removed content in 10 to 14 business days unless we receive notice that the complainant has filed a court action to restrain the alleged infringement
- Restore the removed content after the applicable waiting period if no court order is received
We are not obligated to restore content and reserve the right to decline to do so at our discretion.
7. Repeat Infringer Policy
Consistent with the DMCA and our commitment to protecting intellectual property, we have a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are found to be repeat infringers. We may also limit or revoke access to our Services for users who repeatedly receive valid DMCA notices, at our sole discretion.
We reserve the right to take action against any user whose conduct constitutes copyright infringement, regardless of whether a formal DMCA notice has been submitted.
