6. DMCA Compliance and Repeat Infringers

Atelier complies with the DMCA and responds to valid copyright infringement notices. We maintain a repeat infringer policy: accounts that accumulate repeat copyright infringement notices — where the Tenant has not demonstrated a good faith belief that the content was non-infringing — will be subject to suspension or termination in Atelier's sole discretion.

Instructions for submitting DMCA notices are set forth in our Terms of Service.

7. Enforcement

Atelier reserves the right, but is not obligated, to investigate potential violations of this AUP. Upon discovering or receiving a credible report of a violation, we may, at our sole discretion and without prior notice:

• Remove or disable access to the violating content;
• Suspend or terminate the Tenant account responsible;
• Report the activity to law enforcement or regulatory authorities;
• Cooperate with law enforcement investigations.

We will provide notice of enforcement actions where feasible and not prohibited by law. Atelier is not liable for any damages arising from enforcement actions taken in good faith.
