Upcoming Login.gov Requirement for DMCA Designated Agent Registration Account Access (Email)

[funnyinterestingcool]

Dear Account Holders, Starting June 29, 2024, you must have a Login.gov account to access your DMCA designated agent registration account. Like many other participating government agencies, the U.S. Copyright Office uses Login.gov to administer usernames and passwords. Login.gov is a trusted, government-issued sign-in service that provides a single, secure way to access participating government websites by authenticating your identity through one account and password. What if I do not have a Login.gov account? If you do not have a Login.gov account, you must create one to access your DMCA designated agent registration account. Select ?Create an account? at the top of the Login.gov login page and follow the prompts. What if my Login.gov account uses the same email address as my DMCA designated agent registration account? If your new or existing Login.gov account uses the same email address as your existing DMCA designated agent registration account, this will automatically link your DMCA account information to your new Login.gov account. You will be able to access your DMCA designated agent registration account without any further verification. What if my Login.gov account uses a different email address than my DMCA designated agent registration account? If you use different email addresses for your new or existing Login.gov account and your existing DMCA designated agent registration account, you must first log in through Login.gov and then follow the prompts to verify your existing DMCA designated agent registration account to migrate and link your accounts. Please note that Login.gov is not managed by the Copyright Office. If you need help using Login.gov or managing your Login.gov account, please visit the Login.gov help page (https://login.gov/help/). Many participating agencies use Login.gov, so please note that you can use the same username and password to access any agency that partners with Login.gov.
