In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998, if you own a copyright or have authority to act on behalf of a copyright owner and want to report a claim that a third party is infringing that material on or through our services, please send a notice that meets the minimum requirements of the DMCA, to admin@ecliks.com.ng , and we will take appropriate action.
