DMCA / Copyright Notice

Placeholder. This document is a draft. The contact details and procedures below will be finalized once our DMCA designated agent is registered with the U.S. Copyright Office.

Overview

Auraverse hosts AI-generated music, voices, and artist personas. Although generated content is original output produced by machine-learning models, we understand that it may sometimes resemble a copyrighted work. We respond to valid takedown notices under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), 17 U.S.C. § 512.

Submitting a takedown notice

If you believe content on Auraverse infringes your copyright, send a written notice to our designated agent that includes all of the following:

1. Your physical or electronic signature (the signature of the copyright owner or an authorized agent).
2. A description of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed (e.g., title, registration number if available, or a link to the original).
3. A direct URL or sufficient description of the location on Auraverse where the allegedly infringing material resides (e.g., the song share link, the artist profile URL).
4. Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
6. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on behalf of the owner.

Notices that are missing any of the elements above may be considered insufficient under the DMCA. Knowingly false notices may expose the submitter to liability under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f).

Designated agent

We strongly prefer notices by email. Hard-copy notices may delay our response.

Our response

On receipt of a complete notice we will, in our discretion and as required by law, expeditiously remove or disable access to the material in question and notify the user who posted it. We may also terminate accounts of users who are repeat infringers.

Counter-notice

If you believe material was removed in error, you may submit a counter-notice that includes:

1. Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the material that was removed and the location at which it previously appeared.
3. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed by mistake or misidentification.
4. Your name, address, phone number, and consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if outside the U.S., the Northern District of California), and a statement that you will accept service of process from the party who filed the original notice or their agent.

On receipt of a valid counter-notice we will forward it to the original complainant. If the complainant does not file an action seeking a court order within ten business days, we may restore the material.

Repeat infringer policy

Accounts that accrue multiple substantiated takedown notices may be suspended or terminated. We track notices on a per-account basis.
