Global Metro Status respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 ("DMCA"), the text of which may be found on the U.S. Copyright Office website at https://www.copyright.gov/legislation/dmca.pdf, we will respond expeditiously to claims of copyright infringement committed using our service.

1. Notice of Copyright Infringement

If you are a copyright owner, authorized to act on behalf of one, or authorized to act under any exclusive right under copyright, please report alleged copyright infringements taking place on or through the Site by completing a Notice of Alleged Infringement and delivering it to our designated email contact.

Upon receipt of the Notice as described below, we will take whatever action, in our sole discretion, we deem appropriate, including removal of the challenged content from the Site.

Your Notice must include the following information:

• Identify the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed, or - if multiple copyrighted works are covered by this Notice - you may provide a representative list of the copyrighted works that you claim have been infringed.
• Identify the material or link you claim is infringing (or the subject of infringing activity) and to which access is to be disabled, including at a minimum, if applicable, the URL of the link shown on the Site or the exact location where such material may be found.
• Provide your company affiliation (if applicable), mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
• Include both of the following statements in the body of the Notice:
  • "I hereby state that I have a good faith belief that the disputed use of the copyrighted material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law (e.g., as a fair use)."
  • "I hereby state that the information in this Notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that I am the owner, or authorized to act on behalf of the owner, of the copyright or of an exclusive right under the copyright that is allegedly infringed."
• Provide your full legal name and your electronic or physical signature.

Please deliver this notice, with all items completed, to: [email protected].

2. Material Provided by Third-Party Feeds

Please note that the transit schedule coordinates, arrival forecasts, and route layouts shown on this site are sourced from official public open data APIs (such as those provided by national governments, regional councils, and public transport operators). In many cases, we do not store this data statically but retrieve or cache it dynamically. If you represent a transit operator and wish to have your public feeds excluded or updated, please contact us directly at [email protected] and we will coordinate to modify our sync indexes promptly.

3. Counter-Notification

A sender of an infringement notice may be subject to a counter-notification. If you believe your content was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification containing the following information to our email address:

• Your name, address, and telephone number.
• Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled, and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled.
• A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled.
• A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located, or if your address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which the service provider may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notification or an agent of such person.
