Dear Valued Verizon Customer,

Verizon has been notified that copyrighted content may have been shared using your Internet connection without permission of the copyright owner.

What does this mean to me?

Content owners (for example, artists, moviemakers, authors) and their representatives routinely monitor peer-to-peer and file sharing networks to see if their content (like music, movies, and TV shows) is being shared without their permission (without it being paid for). If they notice somebody sharing their content without their permission through a Verizon account, they inform Verizon by sending us a notice along with information about the copyrighted work and the Verizon Internet protocol (IP) address of the computer sharing the content. As the primary account holder, you are responsible for making sure your account is not used for copyright infringement. Sharing content without the copyright owner's permission is a violation of U.S. copyright laws, and our terms of service and acceptable use policy.

What was shared and when?

File Name: South Park Seasons 1 -18 - PhilMorris
Content Title: SOUTH PARK
Timestamp: 12-18-2015 04:40:16 UTC
IP Addr------------
Notice ID: 222119491618

Did Verizon give the content owners my personal information?

No, we will not share your personal information with the content owner without either your permission or the receipt of a court order or subpoena. The way the process works, the content owner provides Verizon with an IP address. We then match the IP address to a Verizon account and contact the account owner directly on their behalf without identifying you.

What do I need to do now?

If you have been downloading or sharing content illegally, you must stop doing so immediately. Make sure that everyone who uses your Internet connection knows that you received this alert and advise them to use only legal sources for music, television and movie content, For information about the many ways to find the music, movies and TV shows you want legally, please see copyrightinformation.org/a-better-way-to-find-movies-tv-music/.

Secure your home wireless network by activating encryption on your modem or router so that nobody who is unauthorized to use it is able to do so.

What happens if Verizon receives more copyright notices about my account?

Verizon will notify you by email if we receive another copyright notice about your account, and, if we continue to receive notices, we will re-direct your Internet browser to a special landing page where we will ask you to acknowledge receipt of the alert and to view an online copyright education video. If we still continue to receive notices of alleged infringement about your account, we will temporarily reduce the speed of your Internet service for a period of 2 or 3 days. We will tell you before we do that and give you the opportunity to seek review by an independent reviewer of the validity of the alerts you received. Accordingly, you may wish to keep any information that you feel could be used during the independent review process to show that you did not violate the copyright laws. For more information on the Copyright Alert Program and the independent review process, please visit copyrightinformation.org.

What if I still have questions, where can I go?

To review frequently asked questions about copyrights, learn about our Copyright Alert Program, or get information on where to obtain legitimate copies of copyrighted music or videos, please visit verizon.com/copyrightfaq or copyrightinformation.org.


We appreciate your immediate attention to this matter.


Sincerely,


Your Verizon Team
