DMCA
Effective Date: 8/28/2026
At Focus Bio, we take copyright seriously and expect the same respect for original work from everyone who visits or contributes to our site. As a publication focused on biographies, life stories, and public-interest profiles, we’re committed to making sure everything we publish stays within the bounds of copyright law.
Reporting Copyright Infringement
If you believe something published on [Your Site Name] infringes your copyright, you can send us a written DMCA notice asking for it to be taken down. To be considered valid, your notice needs to include:
- Your full name and a way to reach you (a working email address is required)
- A description of the copyrighted work you believe was infringed
- The specific URL or page on our site where the material appears
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use isn’t authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law
- A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information you’ve provided is accurate and that you’re either the copyright owner or authorized to act on their behalf
- Your signature, physical or electronic
Where to Send Takedown Requests
Email: Contact@focusbio.online
We review every valid notice we receive promptly, and where a claim checks out, we’ll remove or restrict access to the material in question.
Counter-Notification
If content of yours was taken down and you think that happened by mistake or due to misidentification, you’re entitled to file a counter-notice. It should include:
- Your name, address, and contact details
- Identification of the material that was removed and where it used to appear
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you believe the removal was a mistake or misidentification
- A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the appropriate federal court (or other relevant legal authority)
- Your signature, physical or electronic
Once we receive a valid counter-notice, we may restore the content, depending on the circumstances and unless we’re notified of further legal action from the original complainant.
Repeat Infringers
Focus Bio reserves the right to limit or cut off access for any user or contributor who repeatedly infringes on others’ copyrights.
Our Commitment
We want Focus Bio to be a place both readers and creators can trust. That means respecting original work and protecting the rights of writers, publishers, and other copyright holders, while still delivering useful, accurate biographical content to our audience.
If you believe your copyrighted material has shown up on our site without permission, reach out to the email above with the details, and we’ll take it from there.
