To ensure receipt, Advanced Technology Consultants strongly recommends that Complainant send the complaint by overnight mail. Advanced Technology Consultants will investigate complaints and respond to proper notifications sent to:

A proper notification MUST have at least the following information, or it may

i. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf
of Complainant;
ii. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed or,
if multiple copyrighted works at a single site are covered by a single notification,
a representative list of such works at that site;
iii. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be
the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which

of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
Advanced Technology Consultants will investigate the subject of a proper notice. If appropriate, Advanced Technology Consultants will remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material and notify the entity that submitted such material ("Respondent"). Respondent may then send to the Designated Agent a proper counter-notification, in which case Advanced Technology Consultants may re-post or re-enable access to the allegedly infringing material between 10 and 14 days after receipt of the counter-notification, unless Complainant first notifies Advanced Technology Consultants that Complainant has filed suit to restrain Respondent from engaging in the alleged infringement. To ensure receipt, Advanced Technology Consultants strongly recommends that Respondent send the counter-notification by overnight mail.
A proper counter-notification MUST have at least the following information,
or it may be IGNORED:
i. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf
of Respondent;
ii. Identification of the material that has been removed or disabled and the
location at which the material appears before it was removed or access to it
was disabled;
iii. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that Respondent has a good faith
belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification
of the material to be removed or disabled; and
iv. Respondent's name, address and telephone number, and a statement that Respondent
consents to the jurisdiction of the Federal Court in its district or, if Respondent's
address is outside the United States, Respondent consents to any jurisdiction
where Advanced Technology Consultants may be found, and that Respondent will
