Notice of Copyright Infringement
If you believe that your work has been copied and is accessible on the Site in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please provide UCB’s Copyright Agent with the following information:
- identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed;
- identification of the allegedly infringing material on the Site that is requested to be removed;
- your name, address, and daytime telephone number, and an e-mail address if available, so that UCB may contact you if necessary;
- a statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the copyrighted work is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;

- an electronic or physical signature of the copyright owner or someone authorized on the owner’s behalf to assert infringement of copyright and to submit the statement.
UCB’s Copyright Agent for notice of claims of copyright infringement on the Site can be reached by contacting us.
UCB will remove any content that infringes upon the copyright of any person under the laws of the United States upon receipt of such a statement (or, more specifically, any statement in conformance with 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)). United States law provides significant penalties for submitting such a statement falsely. Please note that UCB may notify the individual who submitted the allegedly infringing material, and such person has the right to send UCB a counter-notification under applicable law and, if valid, the law requires the removed material to be restored. UCB will not be a party to disputes over alleged copyright infringement.
