DMCA Policy of dgsevent.fr
1. **Introduction**
This DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) policy applies to dgsevent.fr, a music-sharing platform dedicated to independent artists who have voluntarily transferred all their exploitation rights to the platform. Although artists do not make any profit from their creations published on dgsevent.fr, we respect current intellectual property laws and are committed to handling any copyright infringement claims diligently and in compliance with the DMCA.
2. **Transfer of Rights by Artists**
All artists publishing their works on dgsevent.fr have expressly agreed to transfer all copyright rights to the platform, including:
- The right to distribute, reproduce, and broadcast their musical works on the platform.
- The right to allow users to listen, download, or share these works non-commercially.
- The right for the platform to store and display the works as part of its catalog, unless explicitly requested for removal by the artist.
This transfer of rights is irrevocably granted unless a specific request for removal is made by the artist, in accordance with the platform's terms and conditions.
3. **Notification of Copyright Infringement**
Even though artists have transferred their rights to dgsevent.fr, we understand that copyright infringement claims may still arise.

Your notification must include the following information:

2. A clear description of the copyrighted work that you believe has been infringed, or, if multiple works are involved, a representative list of those works.

4. Your contact information, including your full name, mailing address, phone number, and email address.
5. A statement indicating that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.

4. **Procedure Upon Receiving a Notification**
Upon receiving a valid notification:
- dgsevent.fr will remove or disable access to the infringing content.
- We will notify the user who uploaded the disputed content of its removal and provide them with a copy of the notice.
5. **Counter-Notification**
If you are a dgsevent.fr user and believe that a work you uploaded was removed by mistake or misidentification, you can submit a counter-notification. To do so, please send a counter-notification to dmca@dgsevent.fr, including the following information:
1. Your electronic or physical signature.
2. Identification of the content that was removed or disabled, and the location where the content appeared before it was removed.
3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you believe in good faith that the content was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification.

Upon receiving a valid counter-notification, dgsevent.fr may restore the content in question, unless the complainant files a lawsuit seeking a court order to prohibit the use of the content on our platform.
6. **Platform Liability Limitation**
In compliance with the DMCA, dgsevent.fr cannot be held liable for copyright violations committed by its users, as long as we follow the legal notification and takedown procedures provided by the DMCA. We strive to comply with these procedures to protect the rights of all copyright holders.
This policy aims to protect the rights of both artists and users while ensuring a legally secure environment for the distribution of musical works on dgsevent.fr. For any questions regarding this policy or to submit a claim, please contact SAS CLYB at dmca@dgsevent.fr.
