2. Exact identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed (include registration numbers if applicable)
3. Specific URL(s) on ourcarolinafoothills.com where the infringing material is located — provide direct links, not search pages
4. A statement that you have a good faith belief the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law

Counter-Notice Procedure

If you believe your content was removed in error or misidentified, you may submit a counter-notice. Your counter-notice must include:

1. Your name, address, phone number, and electronic signature
2. Identification of the removed material and its original location before removal
3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief the material was removed due to mistake or misidentification
4. Consent to jurisdiction of Federal District Court in your district (or our operator's district)
5. Agreement to accept service of process from the original complainant

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notice, we will forward it to the original claimant. If they do not file a court action within 10–14 business days, the removed material may be restored.

For content removal based on:

• Privacy violations — unauthorized sharing of personal information, doxxing, non-consensual intimate imagery
• Defamation — false statements damaging reputation (court order may be required)
• Trademark infringement — unauthorized use of registered brand names or logos
• 2257 compliance issues — suspected underage models or missing age verification records

Please clearly state the legal basis for your request and provide supporting evidence. Additional documentation may be requested.
