Under the old system, a service provider mailed in a paper form designating its agent that the Copyright Office maintained indefinitely.
Under the new system (available here), agents must be designated using an on-line form instead of a paper form, and designations must be renewed every three (3) years. If you previously submitted a paper form, you have until December 31, 2017 to submit a new designation on-line and to maintain the continuity of the safe harbor.
Given that designations expire after three (3) years, we suggest that each service provider calendar a renewal notice.
