Fair E Web Host takes intellectual property rights very seriously, and it is our policy to respond to clear notices of alleged copyright infringement. This DMCA Policy (i) describes the information that should be present in such notices, (ii) is incorporated by reference into our Terms and Conditions, and (iii) complies with the form suggested by the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), the text of which can be found on the U.S. Copyright Office website. This policy is designed to make submitting notices of alleged infringement to us as straightforward as possible while reducing the number of fraudulent or unverifiable notices.
To file a notice of alleged infringement with us, you must provide a written notice that includes your full contact information and details the items specified below:
- The name, address, phone number, and email address (if available) of the copyright owner or the person authorized to act on their behalf.
- Identification of the copyrighted work(s) claimed to have been infringed.
- Identification of the infringing material to be removed or disabled, including the Internet location (URL) of the infringing material.
- A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the disputed material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement that the information in the complaint is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or their authorized representative.
You may submit the signed notification via our abuse reporting form. Alternatively, you can email or mail the signed notification to:
Fair E Web Host

Please note that if you materially misrepresent that material is infringing your copyright, you may be held liable for damages (including costs and attorneys’ fees). If you’re unsure whether material infringes your copyright, we recommend consulting with an attorney before proceeding.
Fair E Web Host may respond to takedown notices by removing or disabling access to the allegedly infringing material and/or by terminating services. If we remove or disable access in response to such a notice, we will make a good-faith effort to notify the customer or administrator of the affected site or content.
Fair E Web Host may document notices of alleged infringement and/or the actions taken in response. A copy of the notice may be made available to the public and shared with one or more third parties, who may also make it publicly available.
Counter Notice
If you receive a notice from Fair E Web Host that your material has been removed or access has been disabled due to a copyright infringement claim, you may submit a counter notice. The counter notice must include all of the following:
- A physical or electronic signature of the customer.
- Identification of the material that was removed or disabled and the location where the material appeared before its removal or access being disabled.
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
- Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court in your location, or if located outside of Canada, the jurisdiction of the Province of Ontario Courts, and that you will accept service of process from the complainant or their agent.
Upon receiving a valid counter notice, Fair E Web Host will take reasonable steps to restore the material within 10-14 business days unless the copyright owner files court proceedings to prevent the restoration of the material.
Repeat Infringer Policy
Fair E Web Host reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to suspend or terminate the services of customers who are found to have repeatedly infringed the copyrights (or intellectual property rights) of others.
