+Yes, I am authorized to act on the copyright owner's behalf.

+
+**Does your claim involve content on GitHub or npm.js?**

+GitHub
+
+**Please describe the nature of your copyright ownership or authorization to act on the owner's behalf.**
+
+I am a legal representative and [private] for Codemasters. The infringing material consists of proprietary source code, binary executables, and game assets developed by Codemasters' employees. Codemasters is the exclusive copyright owner of the "IGI 2: Covert Strike" intellectual property. I am authorized to act on behalf of the company to enforce these rights and request the removal of unauthorized distributions.
+
+**Please provide a detailed description of the original copyrighted work that has allegedly been infringed.**
+
+The original work is the commercial video game "IGI 2: Covert Strike." This includes the game's compiled engine code, binary executables (.exe), proprietary level data (original vanilla maps), and artistic assets (textures and sound). This is a retail product currently sold commercially on platforms such as GOG.com. The reported repositories contain unauthorized, full copies of these proprietary game files intended to bypass retail licensing.
+
+**If the original work referenced above is available online, please provide a URL.**
+
+https://www.gog.com/en/game/i_g_i_2_covert_strike
+
+**We ask that a DMCA takedown notice list every specific file in the repository that is infringing, unless the entire contents of the repository are infringing on your copyright. Please clearly state that the entire repository is infringing, OR provide the specific files within the repository you would like removed.**
+
+**Based on the above, I confirm that:**
+
+The entire repository is infringing
+
+**Identify the full repository URL that is infringing:**
+
+https://github.com/Zaidi-45/IGI2-Project-Revive-Patches  
+https://github.com/Zaidi-45/IGI-2-Multiplayer-Revive-Patch  
+https://github.com/Zaidi-45/IGI2-Map-Repo

+**Do you claim to have any technological measures in place to control access to your copyrighted content? Please see our <a href="https://docs.github.com/articles/guide-to-submitting-a-dmca-takedown-notice#complaints-about-anti-circumvention-technology">Complaints about Anti-Circumvention Technology</a> if you are unsure.**
+
+Yes
+
+**What technological measures do you have in place and how do they effectively control access to your copyrighted material?**
+
+The original software is protected by digital rights management (DRM) and commercial licensing verification. Access to the source code and production assets is restricted to internally hosted version control systems accessible only through company-controlled VPNs and RBAC (Role-Based Access Control).
+
+**How is the accused project designed to circumvent your technological protection measures?**
+
+The projects provide "cracked" or modified executables and setup files that bypass the retail authentication servers and DRM, allowing users to access the full commercial game and its proprietary assets without a valid license.
+
+**If you are reporting an allegedly infringing fork, please note that each fork is a distinct repository and <i>must be identified separately</i>. Please read more about <a href="https://docs.github.com/articles/dmca-takedown-policy#b-what-about-forks-or-whats-a-fork">forks.</a> As forks may often contain different material than in the parent repository, if you believe any of the repositories or files in the forks are infringing, please list each fork URL below:**
+
+**Is the work licensed under an open source license?**
+
+No
+
+**What would be the best solution for the alleged infringement?**
+
+Reported content must be removed
+
+**Do you have the alleged infringer’s contact information? If so, please provide it.**
+
+I do not have direct contact information; however, the content is publicly hosted on the GitHub profiles associated with the provided URLs.
+
+**I have a good faith belief that use of the copyrighted materials described above on the infringing web pages is not authorized by the copyright owner, or its agent, or the law.**
+
+**I have taken <a href="https://www.lumendatabase.org/topics/22">fair use</a> into consideration.**
+
+**I swear, under penalty of perjury, that the information in this notification is accurate and that I am the copyright owner, or am authorized to act on behalf of the owner, of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.**
