davidjosue.com complies with the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and operates a takedown procedure for copyright complaints under 17 U.S.C. § 512. We have designated an agent to receive notifications of claimed copyright infringement.

Designated Copyright Agent

Filing a DMCA notice

If you believe that any content on the Site infringes your copyright, you may submit a written notice to our Designated Copyright Agent that includes all of the following, as required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3):

  1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed
  3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity, including the URL on the Site where the material is located
  4. Your contact information (name, address, telephone, email)
  5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law
  6. A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner’s behalf

Upon receipt of a complete and valid DMCA notice, we will investigate and, if appropriate, remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material and notify the user who posted it.

Counter-notification

If you believe content you posted was removed in error, you may submit a counter-notification to the Designated Copyright Agent containing the elements required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3). We may restore the content if no court action is filed within the statutory window.

Repeat infringer policy

It is our policy to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the access of users who are determined to be repeat infringers.

Misrepresentation

Please note that under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing may be liable for damages.

12. Disclaimer of warranties

The Site and its content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, David Josué Photography, David Josué Delgado Salazar, and any related party shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from or related to your use of the Site, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. Our aggregate liability for any claim arising from or related to the Site is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim, or (b) one hundred United States dollars (USD $100). This limitation does not apply where prohibited by applicable law.

14. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless David Josué Photography and David Josué Delgado Salazar from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, or expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) arising out of or related to your violation of these Terms, your misuse of the Site, your violation of any third party’s rights, or your violation of any applicable law.

15. Governing law and dispute resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of Mexico, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising from or related to these Terms or your use of the Site shall be resolved in the competent courts of Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.

For visitors who are residents of jurisdictions where local consumer protection law grants non-waivable rights to bring claims in their home courts, those rights are preserved.

16. Changes to these terms

We may modify these Terms at any time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. For material changes, we will provide notice via a prominent notice on the Site. Your continued use of the Site after the effective date of any change constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.
