This fee will continue to be charged on each Renewal Date thereafter unless and until you cancel and regardless of how much you use the service. We will charge the fee to the debit/credit card that you provide to us during registration unless the payment method has been changed. We may change the fees and charges in effect, or add new fees and charges from time to time, but we will give you advance notice of these changes by email.

If you are a rights owner (or acting on behalf of a rights owner) and believe that any User Content infringes your copyright, you must provide us with a written notice which states:
- that you are the rights owner or are authorised to act on the rights owner's behalf;
- that you have identified User Content on the Site which infringes your copyright (or infringes the copyright of a third party on whose behalf you are entitled to act, if applicable) and you believe in good faith that use of the User Content in the manner complained of is not authorised by you, the rights owner's agent or by law;

- a description of the way in which the copyright material has been infringed;
- information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the User Content in question on the Site (including a URL specifying the date the Site was accessed and/or a screen shot);
- information that will enable us to contact you, such as your name, a postal address, telephone number and, if available, an email address (these contact details may also be provided to the alleged infringer so that they may contact you directly, in order to attempt to resolve the complaint amicably);
- your electronic or physical signature (which may be a scanned copy); and
- that the information in the notification is true and accurate.
Completed notices should be sent using the tool available at https://mixlr.com/copyright/report/new.
This 'notice and takedown' procedure is regulated by statute. There may be negative consequences if you falsely allege User Content is infringing copyright or send a copyright infringement notice to us in bad faith. We suggest that you take legal advice before sending a copyright infringement notice, if you are unsure about your rights in the User Content, or whether there has been an infringement of your rights.
If you believe that we have removed User Content in error, you may send us a written counter-notice which states:

Completed counter-notices should then be sent to support@mixlr.com with the subject line 'Copyright counter-notice'.
We have a policy of terminating the user accounts of repeat copyright infringers. A repeat infringer is a user who has submitted two or more items of User Content for which Mixlr receives a copyright infringement notice in accordance with this section. If your account is terminated in accordance with this provision, you shall not register or attempt to register a new user account. You agree to keep us fully and effectively indemnified and hold us harmless for all liability that may be incurred as a result of a user breaching this section. Mixlr has the right to disclose your identity to any third party who is claiming that any User Content posted or uploaded by you constitutes a violation of their intellectual property rights, or of their right to privacy or any other law.
