AI-Generated Content Considerations
Unique Challenges
AI-generated content presents unique copyright considerations:
Training Data: AI models are trained on large datasets that may include copyrighted works
Similarity: AI-generated images may unintentionally resemble existing copyrighted works
Authorship: Questions exist about copyright ownership of AI-generated content
Our Position
We take copyright concerns seriously, even for AI-generated content
Users are responsible for ensuring their use of our platform complies with copyright law
We investigate all valid DMCA notices regardless of whether content is AI-generated
We encourage users to create original prompts and avoid attempting to reproduce copyrighted works
Best Practices for Users
To minimize copyright concerns:
Use original, descriptive prompts rather than referencing specific copyrighted works
Avoid prompts that explicitly reference copyrighted characters, artworks, or branded content
Review generated images for potential similarities to existing copyrighted works
Obtain appropriate licenses if using generated content commercially
Repeat Infringer Policy
We maintain a policy of terminating accounts of users who are repeat copyright infringers:
Three-Strike Policy
First Notice: Warning and content removal
Second Notice: Temporary account suspension and content removal
Third Notice: Permanent account termination
Documentation
We maintain records of:
All DMCA notices received
Actions taken in response to notices
User accounts involved in infringement claims
Counter-notifications submitted
Discretionary Action
We reserve the right to terminate accounts immediately for severe or egregious copyright infringement, regardless of prior notice count.
False Claims and Perjury
Warning
Making false claims in a DMCA notice constitutes perjury and may result in:
Legal liability for damages
Attorney's fees
Criminal penalties
Requirements
All DMCA notices must be submitted in good faith with accurate information. We may pursue legal action against individuals who knowingly submit false claims.
Limitations and Disclaimers
Platform Limitations
We cannot monitor all user-generated content in real-time
We rely on copyright owners to identify potential infringement
We may not be able to prevent all instances of copyright infringement
User Responsibility
Users are solely responsible for:
Ensuring their use of our platform complies with copyright law

Respecting the intellectual property rights of others
