Copyright Policy and DMCA Notice
Effective: August 15, 2026 · Last updated: August 27, 2026 · Publisher: RNP Labs LLC
RNP Labs LLC respects intellectual property rights and expects users of WidgetBid to do the same. This page
sets out our position on the material the Service publishes and the procedure for copyright notices under the
Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 512.
1WHAT THE SERVICE PUBLISHES
WidgetBid presents parsed factual information: pairing identifiers, dates, report and release times,
credit and block values, layover cities, deadhead counts, historical award outcomes, and seniority figures.
Facts are not protected by copyright. The Service applies its own selection, arrangement, analysis, and
presentation to those facts, and that work is owned by RNP Labs LLC.
The Service does not host, display, or distribute original documents. There is no document viewer,
no document library, and no download of any source file. Source materials are parsed and then removed from
working storage.
2USER SUBMITTED MATERIAL
Some data is derived from material submitted by verified users. If you believe material submitted by a user
resulted in content on the Service that infringes your copyright, use the notice procedure below.
3HOW TO SEND A NOTICE
Send a written notice to our designated agent (Section 6) that includes all of the following, as required by
17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3):
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their
behalf.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed.
- Identification of the material claimed to be infringing, with enough detail for us to locate it,
including the specific URL or screen in the Service.
- Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
- A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its
agent, or the law.
- A statement that the information in the notice is accurate, and, under penalty of perjury, that you are
the copyright owner or authorized to act on their behalf.
Incomplete notices cannot be acted on. A notice that identifies facts rather than protected expression,
or that does not include every element above, will be acknowledged but not actioned. Knowingly
misrepresenting that material is infringing can create liability for damages under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f).
4WHAT WE DO WITH A NOTICE
- We acknowledge receipt promptly, normally within 5 business days.
- We review the notice and remove or disable access to material where the notice is valid and complete.
- Where the material came from a user, we notify that user and forward a copy of the notice.
- We keep a record of every notice received and every action taken.
5COUNTER NOTICE
If your material was removed and you believe it was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may send a
counter notice to the agent below containing:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the material removed and where it appeared before removal.
- A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief the material was removed as a
result of mistake or misidentification.
- Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the
federal district court for the district where you live, or for any district in which we may be found if you
are outside the United States, and that you will accept service of process from the person who sent the
original notice.
If we receive a valid counter notice, we may restore the material in 10 to 14 business days unless the
original complainant notifies us that they have filed an action seeking a court order.
6DESIGNATED AGENT
Notices sent by email to the address above are received. A mailing address for service is available on
request and is on file with the U.S. Copyright Office Directory of Designated Agents.
7REPEAT INFRINGERS
We terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are repeat infringers.
