Grace Made Me respects copyright — both our own and everyone else’s. This page explains how to tell us about material on gracemademe.com that you believe infringes your copyright, and how we respond, in line with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512).
Our Own Work
The devotionals on this site are original writing. If you find them republished elsewhere without permission or credit, we would be grateful if you told us.
Some material here is submitted by visitors — prayer requests and comments — and some is quoted from Bible translations, which remain subject to the terms of the translation concerned.
Filing a Notice of Claimed Infringement
If you believe your copyrighted work has been used here in a way that infringes your rights, send us a written notice containing all of the following:
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner, or of a person authorised to act on their behalf.
- Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed. If several works are covered by one notice, a representative list of them.
- Identification of the material you say is infringing, with enough detail for us to find it — please include the full URL of each page concerned.
- Your contact details: name, postal address, telephone number and email address.
- A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use complained of is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement that the information in the notice is accurate, and — under penalty of perjury — that you are the copyright owner or are authorised to act on the owner’s behalf.
Where to Send It
Send your notice to our designated agent for copyright matters by email here, with “DMCA Notice” in the subject line.
What Happens Next
On receiving a valid notice we will remove or disable access to the material promptly, and where a visitor submitted it, we will let them know and pass on a copy of the notice.
Counter-Notification
If your material was removed and you believe that was a mistake, or that you had the right to use it, you may send us a counter-notification containing:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the material removed, and where it appeared before removal.
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief it was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
- Your name, postal address and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for the district in which you live — or, if you are outside the United States, of 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.
If we receive a valid counter-notification we may restore the material in 10 to 14 business days, unless the original complainant first tells us they have filed a court action.
Repeat Infringers
We will, in appropriate circumstances, block visitors who repeatedly submit infringing material.
Misrepresentation
Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), anyone who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or that it was removed by mistake, may be liable for damages including costs and legal fees. Please be sure of your rights before filing either a notice or a counter-notification.
