Examples of such materials may include:

These materials are submitted by platform users and may be visible to contracting parties involved in procurement workflows.

MBN does not review, verify, or validate the intellectual property status of uploaded materials.

Users are solely responsible for ensuring they have the legal right to upload and share materials through the Platform.

MBN will respond to notices alleging copyright infringement in accordance with applicable law.

Where a valid copyright complaint is received, MBN may take actions including:

• removing or disabling access to allegedly infringing materials
• notifying the user responsible for the uploaded content
• investigating repeated infringement activity
• suspending or terminating accounts where appropriate

MBN reserves the right to take action where credible claims of infringement are identified.

If you believe that copyrighted material has been uploaded to the Platform in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, you may submit a written notice containing the following information:

• Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed.

• A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
• A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or authorized representative.
• Incomplete notices may not be processed.

If you believe that content you uploaded was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification.

A valid counter-notification must include:

• Identification of the material that was removed or disabled and the location where it appeared before removal.
• Your name, address, and telephone number.
• A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
• A statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the federal courts located in the United States.
• Your physical or electronic signature.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, MBN may restore the material in accordance with applicable law.
