DMCA & Copyright Policy

Overview

This DMCA policy outlines copyright compliance procedures for ToolmetryAI, a platform that provides AI-powered tools including document generators, image processing utilities, text analyzers, code assistants, and other AI-driven features. We respect the intellectual property rights of others and expect our users to do the same. We respond promptly to valid copyright infringement notices in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

This page provides detailed instructions for copyright holders who believe their work has been infringed upon through content available on or generated through our platform, as well as for users who believe their content was wrongly removed. We are committed to maintaining a fair and transparent process for resolving copyright disputes.

This policy applies to all content accessible through or generated by ToolmetryAI, including but not limited to user-submitted content, AI-generated outputs that incorporate or resemble copyrighted material, and any other content hosted or processed on our platform. For questions about this policy, contact our copyright agent at copyright@toolmetry.pro.

Copyright Policy

ToolmetryAI complies with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), Title 17, United States Code, Section 512. We do not knowingly permit infringing material on our platform and take appropriate action when we become aware of copyright infringement.

When we receive a valid DMCA takedown notice that meets all statutory requirements, we act expeditiously to remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing content. We maintain detailed records of all DMCA notices received, the actions taken in response, and the outcomes of any counter-notification processes. Our repeat infringer policy is applied consistently and fairly.

It is important to note that ToolmetryAI is a platform that provides AI tools for generating content. While we do not create content ourselves, we recognize that AI-generated outputs may sometimes closely resemble or incorporate elements of copyrighted works due to the nature of machine learning models. We take copyright concerns regarding AI-generated content seriously and will respond to valid notices regardless of whether the content was user-submitted or AI-generated.

We reserve the right to remove content without a formal DMCA notice if we independently identify clear copyright violations, though we generally follow the formal DMCA process to ensure procedural fairness.

Filing a DMCA Notice

If you believe that content on or accessible through ToolmetryAI infringes your copyright, you may submit a DMCA takedown notice to our designated copyright agent. To be valid under the DMCA, your notice must include all of the following elements:

1. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed. If multiple works are involved, you may provide a representative list. For online works, providing the URL of the original work is helpful but not required.

2. Identification of the infringing material on ToolmetryAI, including a specific URL or description sufficient to locate the material. Simply identifying the platform as a whole is not sufficient — you must identify the specific content you believe is infringing.

3. Your full legal name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address where we can reach you for follow-up regarding your notice.

4. A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.

5. 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 copyright owner.

6. Your physical or electronic signature.

Send completed notices to copyright@toolmetry.pro or support@toolmetry.pro. We review all notices for completeness and respond to valid notices within 5-10 business days by removing or disabling access to the identified content. Incomplete notices that do not include all required elements may not be processed, and we will attempt to notify you of any deficiencies so you can resubmit.

Please note that under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing may be subject to liability for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees.

Counter-Notification

If you believe that your content was wrongly removed or disabled in response to a DMCA takedown notice, you have the right to submit a counter-notification requesting that the content be restored. The counter-notification process is an important safeguard that protects users from wrongful takedowns.

A valid counter-notification must include all of the following elements:

1. Identification of the specific material that was removed or disabled and the location where it previously appeared on the platform. Include the URL or a detailed description sufficient to identify the content.

2. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification. This means you believe the content was not infringing, was authorized by the copyright owner, or was removed for the wrong reasons.

3. Your full legal name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address. You must also include a statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or the federal district courts located in Patna, Bihar, India if your address is outside the United States), and a statement that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original DMCA notice or their agent.

4. Your physical or electronic signature.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we will forward a copy to the original complainant and inform them that the removed content may be restored in 10-14 business days. We will restore the content within 10-14 business days of receiving the counter-notification unless the copyright owner files a court action seeking a restraining order or other relief.

Send counter-notifications to copyright@toolmetry.pro or support@toolmetry.pro. Please note that under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification may be subject to liability for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees.

AI-Generated Content & Copyright

ToolmetryAI provides AI-powered tools that generate content based on user inputs and prompts. The intersection of AI-generated content and copyright law is an evolving area, and we want to clarify our approach to copyright concerns related to AI-generated outputs.

When AI-generated content on our platform is identified as potentially infringing upon a copyrighted work — for example, if an AI output closely reproduces substantial portions of a copyrighted text, image, or code — we treat it with the same seriousness as any other copyright concern. Copyright holders may submit a DMCA takedown notice for AI-generated content using the same process described above.

Users should be aware that AI models may occasionally produce outputs that resemble existing copyrighted works, particularly when prompts explicitly reference or request content similar to known works. Users are responsible for reviewing AI-generated content before distributing or publishing it, and should not use prompts designed to reproduce copyrighted material. If you become aware that AI-generated content on your account closely resembles a copyrighted work, we encourage you to remove it proactively.

We work with our AI providers (Google Gemini and OpenRouter) to understand and address how their models handle copyrighted content. However, ToolmetryAI does not control the outputs of AI models and cannot guarantee that generated content will be free from copyright concerns. Users who generate content retain ownership of their outputs but bear the responsibility for ensuring their use of that content does not infringe on third-party rights.

User-Submitted Content

ToolmetryAI allows users to submit and upload content to the platform for processing through our AI tools, including text, images, documents, and code. Users retain ownership of the content they submit, but they are responsible for ensuring that their submissions do not infringe on the copyrights or other intellectual property rights of third parties.

By submitting content to ToolmetryAI, you represent and warrant that you own the content or have obtained all necessary rights, licenses, and permissions to submit it for processing through our AI tools. You agree not to upload content that you do not have the right to use, including copyrighted works belonging to others without their authorization.

If we receive a DMCA notice regarding user-submitted content, we will follow the same takedown and counter-notification procedures described in this policy. In addition, we may independently remove or disable access to user-submitted content that we reasonably believe infringes on third-party copyrights, even without a formal DMCA notice.

Users who repeatedly submit infringing content may have their accounts suspended or terminated under our repeat infringer policy. We encourage all users to respect copyright and intellectual property rights when using our platform and its AI tools.

Repeat Infringers

ToolmetryAI has a strict policy against repeat copyright infringement. A repeat infringer is defined as a user whose account has been subject to two or more valid DMCA takedown notices. Upon reaching this threshold, the user's account will be permanently terminated.

We apply our repeat infringer policy consistently and without exception. Each valid DMCA notice is documented and counted, regardless of the type of content involved (user-submitted or AI-generated). Users will be notified when a DMCA notice results in the removal of their content, so they are aware of the accumulation of strikes against their account.

In cases of egregious or willful infringement — such as systematic reproduction of copyrighted works, commercial-scale piracy, or using AI tools to deliberately generate infringing copies of known copyrighted works — we reserve the right to terminate an account immediately, even on a first offense. Account termination for repeat infringement is permanent and may include forfeiture of any remaining credits or subscription benefits.

We believe this policy strikes an appropriate balance between protecting the rights of copyright holders and providing fair process for our users. If you believe you have been incorrectly identified as a repeat infringer, you may appeal by contacting us at support@toolmetry.pro with supporting documentation.
