  • The following statement: "I swear, under penalty of perjury, that I have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled."
  • Your signature.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, Works.io Co. will forward it to Notifying Party who submitted the original DMCA notification.
