DMCA Policy

Yankees Baseball respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) of 1998, the text of which may be found on the U.S. Copyright Office website at https://www.copyright.gov/legislation/dmca.pdf, we will respond expeditiously to claims of copyright infringement committed using the Yankees Baseball service and/or website (the "Site") if such claims are reported to our Designated Copyright Agent identified below.

If you are a copyright owner, or are authorized to act on behalf of one, or authorized to act under any exclusive right under copyright, please report alleged copyright infringements taking place on or through the Site by completing the following DMCA Notice of Alleged Infringement and delivering it to our Designated Copyright Agent.

Filing a DMCA Notice of Alleged Infringement

To file a DMCA notice, you must provide a written communication that includes substantially the following:

  1. Identify the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed, or if multiple copyrighted works are covered by this notice, you may provide a representative list of the copyrighted works that you claim have been infringed.
  2. Identify the material or link that you claim is infringing (or the subject of infringing activity) and to which access is to be disabled, including at a minimum, if applicable, the URL of the link shown on the Site or the exact location where such material may be found.
  3. Provide your mailing address, telephone number, and, if available, email address.
  4. Include both of the following statements in the body of the notice:

    "I hereby state that I have a good faith belief that the disputed use of the copyrighted material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law (e.g., as a fair use)."

    "I hereby state that the information in this notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that I am the owner, or authorized to act on behalf of the owner, of the copyright or of an exclusive right under the copyright that is allegedly infringed."

  5. Provide your full legal name and your electronic or physical signature (typing your full legal name is sufficient for an electronic signature).

Deliver this Notice, with all items completed, to our Designated Copyright Agent via the contact method provided below.

Counter-Notification

If you believe that your content was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may send us a counter-notification. When we receive a valid counter-notification, we will forward it to the complaining party. If the complaining party does not notify us that they have filed legal action seeking a court order to restrain you from engaging in infringing activity related to the material on our Site within 10-14 business days of our receipt of the counter-notification, we may restore the removed material.

To file a DMCA counter-notification, you must provide a written communication that includes substantially the following:

  • Identify the specific URLs or other unique identifying information of material that Yankees Baseball has removed or to which Yankees Baseball has disabled access.
  • Provide your full legal name, mailing address, telephone number, and, if available, email address.
  • Include both of the following statements in the body of the notice:

    "I hereby state under penalty of perjury that I have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled."

    "I hereby state that I consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which my address is located, or if my address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which Yankees Baseball may be found, and I will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement or an agent of such person."
