DMCA Policy

Our notice-and-takedown procedure under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, and how to reach our designated agent.

Last updated: September 16, 2026

Axe Media Inc. ("we" or "us"), the operator of DrAxe.com (the "Site"), respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of the Site to do the same. This policy implements the notice-and-takedown procedures of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 512 (the "DMCA"). It is incorporated by reference into our Terms of Use.

Designated agent

Notices of claimed copyright infringement regarding material on the Site should be sent to our designated agent:

Axe Media Inc.
Attn: DMCA Agent
24955 Pacific Coast Hwy, Suite B202
Malibu, CA 90265
Phone: 659-374-0637
Email: help@draxe.com (put "DMCA Notice" in the subject line)

Email is the fastest way to reach us. Please send DMCA notices only to this agent; notices sent to other addresses may not be processed.

Filing a notice of infringement

If you believe that material on the Site infringes a copyright you own or are authorized to act for, send our designated agent a written notice that includes all of the following, as required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3):

  1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on the owner's behalf.
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed, or, if a single notice covers multiple works on the Site, a representative list of those works.
  3. Identification of the material you claim is infringing, with enough information for us to locate it. A direct URL to the page on the Site is the most helpful.
  4. Your contact information: name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
  5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  6. A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on the owner's behalf.

A notice that does not include all of these elements may not be valid under the DMCA, and we may ask you to complete it before we act. Please note that under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), a person who knowingly and materially misrepresents that material is infringing may be liable for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees. If you are unsure whether material infringes your copyright, consider consulting an attorney before filing a notice; quotation, commentary, and criticism may be permitted as fair use.

What we do when we receive a notice

When we receive a valid notice, we will promptly remove or disable access to the material identified in it, make a reasonable attempt to notify the person who posted it (if it was posted by a user rather than by us), and keep a record of the notice. If the material was posted by a user, we will provide that user with a copy of the notice so that they may file a counter-notice.

Filing a counter-notice

If material you posted was removed in response to a notice and you believe it was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may send our designated agent a written counter-notice that includes all of the following, as required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3):

  1. Your physical or electronic signature.
  2. Identification of the material that was removed or disabled and the location at which it appeared before removal.
  3. 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.
  4. Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if you are outside the United States, any judicial district in which we may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who filed the original notice or that person's agent.

When we receive a valid counter-notice, we will forward it to the person who filed the original notice. Unless that person notifies us within ten business days that they have filed a court action seeking to restrain the allegedly infringing activity, we may restore the removed material within ten to fourteen business days after receiving the counter-notice.

Repeat infringers

We will terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts or access of users who are repeat infringers.

Standard technical measures

We accommodate and do not interfere with standard technical measures used by copyright owners to identify or protect copyrighted works, as that term is defined in the DMCA.

Other intellectual property

This policy addresses copyright. If you believe material on the Site infringes a trademark or other right, or if you have a concern about content that is not a copyright matter, contact us at help@draxe.com.
