intellectual property, Lingble may disable that client’s instance of the service or remove the allegedly infringing material. If Lingble receives more than one such notice for the same client, Lingble reserves the right to

immediately terminate such client’s subscriptions to the services as deemed necessary by Lingble to ensure continued protection under the safe harbor provisions under the DMCA or to prevent violations of other applicable laws or third parties’ rights.
