DMCA POLICY
When a person creates an original work that is fixed in a physical medium, that person automatically owns copyright to the work. Copyright ownership gives the owner the exclusive right to use the work in certain, specific ways. Many types of works are eligible for copyright protection, including audiovisual words, sound recordings and musical compositions, written works, visual works, video games and computer software, and dramatic works.
In some circumstances, it is possible to use a copyrighted work without infringing the owner’s copyright. For example, in the United States, copyrights are limited by the doctrine of “fair use,” which permits certain uses of copyrighted material, such as parody, satire, and social commentary.
Shihiko accepts unsolicited designs from independent artists who are informed and have agreed to Shihiko’s policies concerning the intellectual property rights of others. All designs selected by Shihiko are new, original, and/or transformative works that may parody, satirize, or provide social commentary on other copyrighted works. Shihiko and the selected designs make only fair use of the copyrighted works of others. Shihiko respects the copyrights of others, and Shihiko is not affiliated with the owners of the copyrights to which the selected designs may refer.
Shihiko respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. It is our policy to respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) and other applicable intellectual property laws. If you believe that your copyrighted work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement and is accessible on this site, please notify us.

If you believe that your work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please provide our designated copyright agent with the following information:
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf;
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works;
- Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material. Please provide a URL and/or description of where the allegedly infringing material is located on the site;

- A statement that the information in the notification is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the right being infringed.
If you fail to comply with all of the above requirements, your DMCA notification may be considered invalid. You acknowledge and agree upon receipt and notice of a claim of infringement, we may immediately remove the identified materials from our site without assuming liability, and the claims of the complaining party and original posting party will be referred to the United States Copyright Office for adjudication, as provided in the DMCA.

To be effective, a DMCA counter-notification must include:
- Your physical or electronic signature;
- Identification of the material that has been disabled, and the location of the material before it was removed;
- A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that your material was disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material; and
- Your name, address, and phone number, as well as a statement confirming that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located (if in the United States), or if your address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which site or the objectionable material may be found, and that you agree to accept service of process from the complaining party, or an agent of such person.
