Copyright / DMCA Contact
Use this page to contact PCB Guide about copyright concerns, alleged infringement, submitted media, business logos, event flyers, and related content displayed on PCB Guide.
Copyright concerns and submitted content
PCB Guide respects intellectual property rights and provides this contact process for copyright concerns, content corrections, and media removal requests involving listings, events, happy hours, live music, guides, photos, flyers, logos, menus, and related materials.
This page is designed to be practical for PCB Guide at launch while making clear that formal DMCA designated agent registration should be completed separately if PCB Guide chooses to pursue that safe-harbor process.

This Copyright / DMCA Contact page explains how copyright owners, authorized representatives, businesses, venues, artists, event organizers, photographers, designers, and other rights holders may contact us about copyright concerns involving content that appears on PCB Guide.
PCB Guide may include business listings, event listings, live music information, happy hour details, deals, specials, guides, photos, graphics, event flyers, business logos, menus, social media links, website links, and other content submitted by businesses, venues, event organizers, artists, users, advertisers, partners, or gathered from publicly available sources.
If you believe content appearing on PCB Guide infringes your copyright, please contact us using the information and process below.
Copyright Contact
Please send copyright concerns to:
- PCB Guide Copyright Contact
- Email: contact@pcbguide.com
- Website: https://pcbguide.com
- Business Name: Emerald Life Adventures LLC d/b/a PCB Guide
At this time, PCB Guide uses email as the public contact method for general copyright questions. If a formal DMCA designated agent is registered later, this page should be updated to include the agent information required by the U.S. Copyright Office and that same information should match the Copyright Office online directory.
When to Contact Us
You may contact us if you believe PCB Guide is displaying or linking to content that infringes your copyright or uses your protected work without permission.
Copyright concerns may involve:
- Photos or images
- Event flyers
- Business logos
- Menus or graphics
- Written descriptions or copied text
- Videos or other media
- Artist, performer, venue, business, or event materials
- Content submitted by another person, business, venue, advertiser, partner, or organizer
If your concern is not about copyright, but instead involves a factual correction, outdated listing, business ownership/authorization issue, event update, privacy issue, trademark concern, or general removal request, you may still contact us at the same email address and explain the issue.
What to Include in a Copyright Complaint
To help us review your request, please include enough information for us to identify the content and evaluate the concern.
A copyright complaint should include:
- Your full legal name and contact information
- The name of the copyright owner, if different from you
- A description of the copyrighted work you believe has been infringed
- The specific PCB Guide page, listing, image, flyer, logo, media, or content you believe is infringing
- The URL or location of the content on PCB Guide, if available
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, the copyright owner’s agent, or the law
- A statement that the information in your notice is accurate
- A statement that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner
- Your physical or electronic signature
You can email this information to contact@pcbguide.com.
What Happens After We Receive a Copyright Complaint
After receiving a copyright complaint, PCB Guide may review the request and, when appropriate, may remove, disable, update, credit, restrict access to, or request additional information about the content in question.
We may also contact the person, business, venue, event organizer, artist, advertiser, partner, or source that submitted or supplied the content if we need more information.
PCB Guide may reject or take no action on complaints that are incomplete, unclear, inaccurate, fraudulent, abusive, duplicative, unsupported, unrelated to copyright, or submitted in bad faith.
Submitting a copyright complaint does not guarantee that content will be removed. We may need additional information before taking action, especially when a claim involves public information, business logos, event flyers, fair use questions, authorized submissions, factual information, or content that may be legally usable.
Counter-Notices and Disputes Over Removed Content
If content you submitted to PCB Guide is removed or restricted because of a copyright complaint and you believe the removal was a mistake or that you have permission to use the material, you may contact us at the copyright contact email above.
A counter-notice or dispute response should include:
- Your full name and contact information
- Identification of the content that was removed or restricted
- The PCB Guide page, listing, event, business profile, or location where the content appeared before it was removed, if known
- A statement explaining why you believe the content was removed by mistake, misidentification, permission, license, ownership, fair use, or another lawful reason
- A statement that the information in your response is accurate
- A statement that you are authorized to submit the response
- Your physical or electronic signature
If PCB Guide later uses a formal DMCA counter-notice process, additional information may be required under the DMCA, including statements made under penalty of perjury and consent to the jurisdiction required by law. This page should be updated if a formal DMCA agent and full counter-notice process are implemented.
Submitted Images, Flyers, Logos, and Media
If you submit images, flyers, logos, menus, graphics, photos, videos, written copy, or other media to PCB Guide, you represent that you have the right to submit that content and that PCB Guide may use it in connection with the related business, event, venue, artist, live music listing, happy hour, deal, special, advertisement, featured placement, partner placement, guide, social post, newsletter, or related promotion.
Please do not submit content that you do not own or do not have permission to use.
Submitted media may appear on PCB Guide, in related promotional materials, in newsletters, in social media posts, or in other PCB Guide marketing connected to the submitted listing or promotion, unless we agree otherwise in writing.
Business Logos, Event Flyers, and Public Information
PCB Guide may display business names, logos, event flyers, venue information, public social media links, public business information, publicly available event information, and other publicly available materials for informational, directory, editorial, or local guide purposes.
If you are the owner or authorized representative of a business, venue, event, organization, artist, performer, or other listing and want content corrected, updated, credited, hidden, or removed, contact us at:
- contact@pcbguide.com
Please include the name of the business, event, listing, or organization, the page involved, and the correction or removal request.
Repeat Infringers and Unauthorized Submissions
PCB Guide may remove content and may restrict, block, or refuse submissions from users, businesses, venues, event organizers, advertisers, partners, accounts, or other submitters that repeatedly submit infringing, unauthorized, misleading, fraudulent, abusive, or improper content.
We may also refuse to publish or promote listings, events, ads, partner placements, or submitted materials if we believe the submitter does not have the right or authority to provide the content.
False, Misleading, or Bad-Faith Notices
Please do not submit false, misleading, abusive, or bad-faith copyright complaints or counter-notices.
A copyright complaint should only be submitted if you have a good-faith belief that the use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, the copyright owner’s agent, or the law.
Misrepresenting that content is infringing, or misrepresenting that removed content was removed by mistake, may create legal consequences under applicable law.
Important Note About DMCA Agent Registration
This page provides a copyright contact process for PCB Guide. It is not intended to claim that PCB Guide has completed formal DMCA designated agent registration unless and until that registration has actually been completed and the registered agent information is posted here.
The U.S. Copyright Office explains that, to designate an agent to receive notifications of claimed copyright infringement, a service provider must make certain agent contact information available to the public on its website and provide the same information to the Copyright Office through the Office’s online registration system. The service provider must also keep that information up to date.
If PCB Guide registers a formal DMCA designated agent in the future, this page should be updated to include the registered agent information required by the Copyright Office. That information should match the Copyright Office online directory.
Until a formal DMCA designated agent is posted and registered, copyright concerns should be sent to contact@pcbguide.com.
