Copyright and Content Takedown Process

Please follow the procedures below to request a takedown of any infringing or prohibited content appearing on the Services. Failure to provide the required information may make your claim ineffective and/or action may be delayed until your submission is complete.

All claims should be sent to our designated Copyright Agent at contact@thisoldhouse.com, or by registered mail to TOH Intermediate Holdings, LLC, Attn: Copyright Agent, 262 Harbor Drive, Stamford CT 06902 USA.

For international legal process requirements, the acceptance of a claim by email or mail is merely for convenience and does not waive any rights or objections, such as lack of jurisdiction or proper service.

Upon receipt of a proper notice of a claim, we will either

  • Remove or disable access to the content that is alleged to be infringing or prohibited (if the content is under our control); or
  • Forward the claim to the content provider who is providing the allegedly infringing or prohibited content, along with your contact information, for their resolution; or
  • Notify the content provider that we will remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing or prohibited content, unless the channel and/or content provider promptly removes the content or responds with a counternotice.

Notice of Alleged Copyright Infringement

If you believe that your copyrighted work has been copied or appears in content provided through the Services in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please provide us with the following information:

  • An electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright interest;
  • A description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed;
  • A copy of the registration of your copyrighted work (and/or the date when the claimed copyrighted work was first published);
  • A description specifying the date and location (such as URL) of the material that you claim is infringing;
  • Your name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address;
  • A written statement from 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
  • A statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf.

Notice of Alleged Infringement of Other Rights or Prohibited Content

If you believe in good faith that any content appearing on the Services infringes other proprietary rights or contains prohibited or illegal content, please provide us with the following information:

  • A detailed description of the infringing or prohibited material or activity including why it is infringing or prohibited;
  • A detailed description specifying the date, time, and location (such as URL) of the material that you claim is infringing or prohibited (as applicable); and
  • Your name, address, telephone number and e-mail address.

Counternotices to Alleged Claims

If you believe that a claim has been improperly submitted against you, you may submit a counternotice, and provide us with the following information:

  • Your physical or electronic signature;
  • Identification of the content (that has or will be) removed or to which access has been (or will be) disabled;
  • A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that removal or disablement of the content was (or would be) a mistake or that the content was misidentified; and
  • Your name and telephone number, and (unless prohibited by applicable laws) a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District court (1) in the judicial district where your address is located, if the address is in the United States, or (2) in New Castle County, Delaware, if your address is located outside the United States and that you will accept service of process from the complainant submitting the notice.

Upon receipt of a proper notice of a counternotice, we will provide the complainant with a copy of your counternotice and will remove the content or cease enabling access to it, unless, within 10 business days, the complainant provides notice to our copyright agent that the complainant has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the content provider from engaging in such infringing activity.
