Receiving a notice does not necessarily mean that you have in fact infringed copyright or that you will be sued for copyright infringement. If you receive a notice, it must contain information that will help you understand the details of the allegation, including the date and time of the alleged conduct.

Willful copyright infringement can result in criminal penalties including imprisonment of up to five years and fines of up to $250,000 per offense.
