The following describes the DMCA Compliance for our AussieNic.net website.
We at AussieNic.net are committed to responding to any alleged copyright violations, should they occur. Notice of any alleged violation should take the form proposed by the

Remedy
If any material infringes on the copyright of any offended party, we may remove the content from AussieNic.net, prevent access to it, terminate or block access for those responsible, and/or take any other action deemed appropriate. We may also pass along record of the incident for documentation and/or publication at our discretion.
Not Legal Advice / No Attorney-Client Relationship
If you believe your rights have been violated, it can be a serious matter. This DMCA notice exists solely to support our efforts as website owners to prevent and eliminate infringement on intellectual property rights. It is not a substitute for competent legal counsel. Other remedies may exist, including action against an internet service provider (ISP). You may wish to seek legal assistance immediately.

Please note that you may be liable for statutory and common law damages, as well as court costs and attorney fees, if you falsify a claim of copyright violation.
