Digital Millennium Copyright Act Policy:
The Kansas Board of Regents respects the intellectual property of others and requests Kan-ed network users to do the same. Material available on or through Kan-ed and/or the Internet may be protected by copyright and the intellectual property laws of the United States and/or other countries. As a service provider, defined under the federal Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), the Board is responsible for establishing a policy that will terminate users of the Kan-ed network who repeatedly infringe other's copyrights.
Any person who believes a Kan-ed user is infringing his or her copyrights shall notify the Board's official DMCA agent. The Board's official DMCA agent is:
Director of Information Technology
Kansas Board of Regents
1000 SW Jackson, Ste. 520
Topeka, KS 66612
(785) 296-1862
Fax: (785) 296-0983
Official notice must include:
• an electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright or other
intellectual property interest;
• a description of the copyrighted work or other intellectual property that is alleged to be infringed;
• a description of where the allegedly infringing material is located on the Kan-ed or Board site, with enough detail that we may find it on the web site;
• an address, telephone number, and email address for the owner or the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner;
• a statement by the owner or person authorized to act on behalf of the owner that the owner has a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright or intellectual property owner, its agents, or the law;
• a statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the official notice is accurate and that the person
signing the notice is the copyright or intellectual property owner or authorized to act on behalf of the copyright or
intellectual property owner; and
• a copy of a petition filed in a court of law to protect the copyright, if any.
It is the Board's policy, in appropriate circumstances and at its discretion, to disable and/or terminate an entity's use of the Kan-ed network if a user accessing the network under the entity's authority may infringe or repeatedly infringe the copyrights or other intellectual property rights of the Board and/or others.
