of a claimed copyright infringement must be provided via email or
regular mail to FabricShop and must include the following information

please seek independent advice):
You may mail this letter to:

How to Make a Counter Notification:
If you are a FabricShop client
and/or end user, i.e., subscriber, and you feel that material you
have placed online that has been removed following an infringement
complaint is in fact not an infringement, you may file a counter
notification. 17 U.S.C. Section 512 (g)(3) requires that to be valid,
the counter notification must be written and addressed to our agent
(listed above) and must provide the following information (the list
below comes straight from the statute; if you do not understand
the language please seek independent advice):
Our designated agent will present your counter notification to the Complaining Party. Once your counter notification has been delivered, FabricShop is allowed under the provisions of 17 U.S.C. Section 512 to restore the removed material in no less than 10, nor more than 14, business days, unless the Complaining Party notifies us that it has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain you, the subscriber, from engaging in infringing activity related to the material on FabricShop's system or network.
Any person who knowingly materially misrepresents under this section:
The SLA is not applicable to unrelated third parties or third parties lacking privity of contract with FabricShop. The uptime guarantees and the resulting SLA credits are applied in monthly terms unless specified otherwise. All SLA guarantees and information listed below are made in good faith and are subject to standard contract remedies.
SLA Credit Claim: To properly claim an SLA credit due, the Customer's master administrative user must open an SLA ticket located inside the Customer portal at http://fabricshop.net/support/ within seven days of the purported outage. Customer must include service type, IP Address, contact information, and full description of the service interruption including logs, if applicable. The SLA claim will be researched by the appropriate FabricShop department manager and any credit issued will be issued to accounting and the ticket will be updated. SLA credits are issued as service credits on future billing cycles. SLA credits shall not be bartered or traded with other FabricShop customers. Please allow up to fourteen (14) days for the process of SLA claims.
SLA Claim Fault: Customers currently in arrears for monthly services
do not qualify for SLA claims. Customers who have been in payment
arrears three or more times in the previous twelve months do not
qualify for SLA claims. Valid SLA claims will not be credited to
the Customer's accounts until all abuse issues are resolved. Any
Customer making false or repetitive claims will incur a one time
charge of $50 per incident for such claims. False or repetitive
claims are also a violation of the TOS and may be subject to service
suspension. Customers participating in malicious or aggressive internet
activities, thereby causing attacks or counter-attacks, do not qualify
for SLA claims and shall be deemed in violation of the AUP.
