Designated Copyright Agent may in our discretion use the information provided
in order to decide how to respond to infringement claims, we are not responsible
for determining the merits of such claims. If a user responds to a claim of
infringement by providing assurances that its content is not infringing, the
user agrees that if we thereafter restore or maintain the content, the user
will defend and hold us harmless from any resulting claims of infringement
brought against us and our Designated Copyright Agent.
