Effective date: August 11, 2026 Last updated: August 11, 2026

FortNexShield (“FortNexShield,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of fortnexshield.com (the “Site”) to do the same. We respond to clear notices of alleged copyright infringement that follow the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), 17 U.S.C. § 512.

This policy explains how to report content you believe infringes your copyright and how to respond if your content was removed.

1. Reporting alleged copyright infringement

If you own a copyright, or you are authorized to act for the owner, and you believe content on the Site infringes that copyright, send a written notice to our Designated Copyright Agent (Section 3). To be valid under the DMCA, your notice must include all of the following:

  1. Your signature. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf.
  2. The work. Identification of the copyrighted work you claim was infringed. If several works are covered by one notice, list them.
  3. The infringing material. Identification of the material you claim is infringing, with enough detail for us to locate it, including the URL or a clear description of where it appears on the Site.
  4. Your contact details. Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
  5. A good-faith statement. A statement that you believe in good faith that the use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  6. An accuracy statement. 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 owner’s behalf.

Send the notice to the Designated Copyright Agent using the details in Section 3.

If your notice does not include the required elements, we may not be able to act on it, and we may ask you to resubmit a complete notice.

2. What happens after we receive a valid notice

When we receive a notice that complies with the DMCA, we will:

  • Review the notice for completeness
  • Remove or disable access to the material we identify as the subject of the claim, within a reasonable time
  • Make a reasonable effort to notify the person who posted the material
  • Terminate, in appropriate cases, the access of users who repeatedly infringe

We may retain a copy of the notice and related records as our policies and the law require.

3. Designated Copyright Agent

Send DMCA notices and counter-notices to our Designated Copyright Agent:

FortNexShield, Copyright Agent Attn: Email: contact@fortnexshield.com Phone: (236) 235-0836 

Please put “DMCA Notice” in the subject line so we can route it to the right team.

4. Filing a counter-notice

If your material was removed or disabled and you believe that was a mistake, or that you have the right to use the material, you may send a counter-notice to our Designated Copyright Agent. Your counter-notice must include:

  1. Your signature. A physical or electronic signature.
  2. The removed material. Identification of the material that was removed and the location where it appeared before removal.
  3. A good-faith statement. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you believe in good faith the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
  4. Consent to jurisdiction. Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for the district where 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 filed the original notice or their agent.

After we receive a valid counter-notice, we may restore the removed material in 10 to 14 business days, unless the original complainant notifies us that they have filed a court action seeking to restrain the activity.

5. Repeat infringers

We terminate, in appropriate circumstances and at our discretion, the access of users who are the subject of repeated valid infringement notices.

6. Misrepresentations

Under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, a person who knowingly misrepresents that material is infringing, or that material was removed by mistake, may be liable for damages. Submit notices and counter-notices in good faith.

7. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as our practices or the law change. We post the current version here with a new effective date.
