1. Introduction
AmeriSafety, LLC (“AmeriSafety,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of its mobile applications, digital platforms, and related services to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (“DMCA”), 17 U.S.C. § 512, we have adopted the following policy regarding claims of copyright infringement.
This policy applies to all content submitted to, hosted on, or transmitted through any AmeriSafety-owned or AmeriSafety-administered platform, including:
- The PyroSafety mobile applications — PyroSafety Display Pro, PyroSafety Inspector, PyroSafety Display Crew, and PyroSafety SFX Crew (collectively, the “Apps”); and
- The Learning Management System (LMS) platform powered by LearnUpon, administered by AmeriSafety on behalf of the American Pyrotechnics Association (“APA LMS”).
Coverage includes safety checklists, inspection forms, training materials, course content, pyrotechnic display plans, images, text, videos, assessments, and any other user-generated or third-party content hosted on these platforms.

3. Notification of Claimed Copyright Infringement
To file a DMCA takedown notice, you must provide our Copyright Agent with a written communication that includes ALL of the following elements required under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3):
3.1 Required Elements of a Valid DMCA Notice
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner, or a person authorized to act on the owner’s behalf.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed. If multiple works are covered, a representative list.
- Identification of the material claimed to be infringing, with information sufficient to permit AmeriSafety to locate it (URL, screen, course name, or section).
- Information sufficient to contact the complaining party (name, address, telephone number, email).
- A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or applicable law.
- A statement that the information is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
Notices that do not comply with all statutory requirements may not receive a response. Submitting a false or fraudulent DMCA notice may expose you to civil and/or criminal liability under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f) and applicable law.
4. Counter-Notification Procedure
If you believe material you posted was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification under 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3). It must include:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the material that has been removed or disabled, and the location where it appeared before removal.
- A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
- Your name, address, and telephone number.
- A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the district in which you reside (or any district where AmeriSafety may be found, if outside the U.S.), and will accept service of process from the original complainant.
Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, AmeriSafety will provide a copy to the original complainant. Unless the complainant files a court action within 10–14 business days, the removed material may be restored at AmeriSafety’s sole discretion.
5. Repeat Infringer Policy
Consistent with the DMCA and other applicable law, AmeriSafety maintains a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances and at our sole discretion, the accounts of users who are deemed to be repeat infringers. We may also limit access to the Apps and/or APA LMS and/or terminate the accounts of any users who infringe intellectual property rights of others.
6. Modification and Removal of Content
AmeriSafety reserves the right to remove or disable access to any content alleged to be infringing without prior notice, at our sole discretion. AmeriSafety will not be liable to any party for any claim arising from actions taken in good faith reliance on a purported DMCA takedown notice, even if a subsequent determination finds the content was not infringing.
7. Safe Harbor Compliance
AmeriSafety operates as a service provider within the meaning of 17 U.S.C. § 512 and endeavors to maintain compliance with the DMCA’s safe harbor provisions. Nothing in this policy shall be construed as an admission that AmeriSafety is liable for any copyright infringement committed by users or third parties.
