Many of the provisions of these Terms of Service are for the benefit not only of FitGrid, but also Your Studio, and Your Studio shall have the right to assert and enforce those provisions directly against you on its own behalf. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship is created as a result of the Terms of Service and neither party has any authority of any kind to bind the other in any respect. In any action or proceeding to enforce rights under the Terms of Service, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover costs and attorneys' fees.

    3. Procedure to Supply a Counter-Notice to the Designated Agent. If the Content provider believes that the Content that was removed or to which access was disabled is either not infringing, or the Content provider believes that it has the right to post and use such Content from the copyright owner, the copyright owner’s agent, or pursuant to the law, the Content provider may send a counter-notice containing the following information to the Designated Agent listed below:
      1. A physical or electronic signature of the Content provider;
      2. Identification of the Content that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the Content appeared before it was removed or disabled;
      3. A statement that the Content provider has a good faith belief that the Content was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or a misidentification of the Content; and
      4. Content provider’s name, address, telephone number, and, if available, e-mail address and a statement that such person or entity consents to the jurisdiction of the state or federal Court for the judicial district in which the Content provider’s address is located, or if the Content provider’s address is located outside the United States, for any judicial district in which FitGrid is located, and that such person or entity will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.
      If a counter-notice is received by the Designated Agent, FitGrid may send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that it may replace the removed Content or cease disabling it in 10 business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the Content provider, the removed Content may be replaced, or access to it restored, in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at FitGrid’s discretion.
