- Request additional information where necessary.
- Remove or disable access to material where appropriate.

Where appropriate based on a valid notice and applicable law, Cykels may remove or disable access to allegedly infringing material.
Where appropriate, we may notify the party responsible for the affected material.
Removal of material does not necessarily constitute an admission of infringement or liability.

14. Restoration Following a Counter-Notification
After receiving a legally sufficient counter-notification, we may provide a copy to the original claimant where required or permitted by law.
Where applicable statutory procedures apply, removed material may be restored within the legally applicable timeframe unless the original claimant informs us that appropriate legal action has been filed seeking to restrain the allegedly infringing activity.
Restoration is subject to applicable law and the specific circumstances of the claim.

Where appropriate, Cykels may take reasonable measures concerning repeat copyright infringement associated with content, accounts, suppliers, or other relevant parties.
Actions may include restricting or terminating access where appropriate and legally permitted.
16. False or Misleading Notices
Copyright notices and counter-notifications are legal communications.
Do not knowingly submit false, fraudulent, or materially misleading information.
