Enphase DMCA Copyright Process

Last updated: December 12, 2022

If you believe your copyrighted work is posted on a website hosted by Enphase, you may submit a legal request as set forth below. If your request contains complete and accurate information, Enphase will take down the allegedly infringing work, subject to the below provisions.

Following our removal of content, the poster of the content will have an opportunity to counter-notify Enphase with the information noted below, and if complete then Enphase will re-post the content unless you file a legal action.

Enphase complies with the requirements of 17 USC §512. This page does not serve as legal advice. We suggest you consult a lawyer if you have any further questions about your legal rights.

Step 1) Copyright Owner submits a takedown request

Before submitting a request, ensure that your copyrighted work is published on an Enphase-hosted site. This means that the work is in fact yours (which may be verified by metadata or by the uniqueness of the image), that Enphase actually does run the website, that the fair use exception to US copyright infringement does not apply, and that you represent the copyright owner(s) or actually are the copyright owner(s).

After verifying the above, you may email the following information to copyrights@enphaseenergy.com:

1. Identification of the copyrighted work that you claim is infringed – this may be reference to your own website, description of your work, an image of your work, or some other reference for Enphase to understand what the copyrighted work is
2. Identification of content that infringes your work – cite the specific Enphase website, provide a screenshot, and clearly identify all copyrighted content
3. Your name and return contact information (preferably email address)
4. A statement that you have a good faith belief that no one with authority to do so has granted permission to post the copyrighted work on the Enphase site
5. A statement that the information you are providing is accurate
6. A statement that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner, along with an electronic, scanned, or hard-copy signature, which states “Signed under penalty of perjury”

Upon receipt of your request, we will verify that the information is complete and, if so, will promptly remove the allegedly infringing content. This typically happens within five (5) business days.

Step 2) Enphase contacts content poster and waits for counter-notification

Upon removing the content, we will attempt to notify the person that posted it to inform them that we have removed the content and why. If the poster believes that the original request was a mistake or misidentification, the poster may provide a counter-notification to Enphase at copyrights@enphaseenergy.com with the following information:

1. Identification of the content that has been removed that is the subject of the counter-notification
2. A statement that you have a good faith belief that the content was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification of the content
3. Your name and return contact information (preferably email address)
4. An electronic, scanned, or hard-copy signature, which states “Signed under penalty of perjury”

Upon receipt of a counter-notification, we will verify that the information provided is complete and, if so, will provide the counter-notification to the original requestor (the alleged copyright owner(s) or their representative).

If the alleged copyright owner(s) does not file a legal action concerning the alleged content, then Enphase will re-post the content to the website as near as possible to its original context between 10 and 14 days after receipt of the counter-notification.

The above steps are followed in compliance with 17 USC §512. To the extent there is any variance between the statute and this site, then Enphase follows the statute.
