DMCA Policy
We respect the intellectual property rights of others and expect the same from our users and contributors. As news aggregators and content publishers, we follow the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and relevant copyright laws. This page outlines our policy for handling copyright infringement claims and instructs copyright holders to submit takedown requests.
If you believe that content hosted or linked on our website infringes upon your copyright, please follow the procedures below to file a DMCA notice.
1. Overview of DMCA Compliance
The DMCA aims to protect copyrighted content by providing a formal process for copyright holders to request the removal of infringing material. At [Your Website’s Name], we take copyright claims seriously and act promptly to investigate any alleged infringement.
Our platform aggregates news content through RSS feeds and other external sources, always crediting original publishers with source links. Despite these measures, we are committed to addressing the issue if you believe that any material on our site violates your copyright.
2. How to Submit a DMCA Takedown Notice
If you are the copyright owner or an authorized agent, you can submit a DMCA takedown notice with the following details to initiate the removal process. Your notice must include:
- Identification of the copyrighted work:
Provide a description or link to the original copyrighted material that you believe has been infringed. - Identification of the infringing content:
Include a URL or specific link to the infringing material on our website, so we can locate it accurately. - Your contact information:
Provide your name, address, phone number, and email so we can communicate with you regarding the claim. - Statement of good faith:
Include a statement, such as:
“I have a good faith belief that the use of the copyrighted material described above is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.” - Statement of accuracy and authority:
Add a declaration, such as:
“I affirm, under penalty of perjury, that the information in this notice is accurate and that I am the copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyrighted material.” - Your signature:
A physical or electronic signature is required to complete the notice.
Submit your DMCA notice to:

3. Our Response to DMCA Notices
Upon receiving a valid DMCA notice, we will:
- Review and verify the claim to ensure it complies with the DMCA requirements.
- Remove or disable access to the infringing content within a reasonable timeframe.
- Notify the user or author responsible for the content, if applicable, providing details about the takedown request.
- Offer the alleged infringer the opportunity to file a counter-notice (if they believe the content was removed in error).
We aim to address DMCA requests promptly while balancing the interests of both copyright owners and content providers.
4. How to Submit a Counter-Notice
If you believe that content was mistakenly removed due to a DMCA notice, you have the right to submit a counter-notice. Your counter-notice must include:
- Identification of the content that was removed or disabled and its location before removal (URL or direct link).
- A statement under penalty of perjury that you believe the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
- Your contact information, including your name, address, phone number, and email.
- A statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the federal court in your area and agreeing to accept service of process from the original copyright owner (or their agent).
- Your signature (physical or electronic).
Send the counter-notice to:
- Email: admin@theprovider360.com
Upon receiving a valid counter-notice, we may restore the content unless the copyright owner files a court action to prevent reinstatement.
5. Repeat Infringers
Under the DMCA and our internal policies, we reserve the right to terminate the accounts or access of users who repeatedly violate copyright laws. If any individual or entity is found to be a repeat infringer, appropriate action will be taken, including permanent removal of infringing content and potential account suspension or termination.
6. Fair Use Policy and Third-Party Content
Many of the news articles and materials published on [Your Website’s Name] are aggregated from external sources under fair use principles. We strive to credit original publishers and authors with proper attributions and links. However, if you believe that our use of certain content goes beyond fair use or violates your copyright, we encourage you to contact us for a resolution.
Our goal is to respect the rights of copyright holders while promoting the free flow of information through responsible curation.
7. Limitations of Liability
While we are committed to acting swiftly on valid DMCA requests, we are not responsible for infringing content hosted by external websites linked to our platform. Users who follow links to third-party websites are subject to the terms and policies of those external sites.
Theprovider360 disclaims liability for any claims, damages, or losses resulting from the use of third-party content or external links. If you believe that content hosted externally infringes upon your copyright, please contact the original website directly.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update or modify this DMCA policy at any time to reflect changes in legal requirements or our internal practices. We encourage users to review this page periodically to stay informed about our policies. Your continued use of the platform constitutes acceptance of any changes to this policy.
