SomaLabs Studio ("we," "us," or "our") respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of our platform to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (17 U.S.C. § 512) ("DMCA"), we will respond expeditiously to claims of copyright infringement that are reported to our designated copyright agent.

4. Counter-Notification

If you believe that content you posted was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification, you may file a counter-notification containing:

1. Your physical or electronic signature;
2. Identification of the material that has been removed or disabled and the location at which it appeared before it was removed;
3. 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;
4. Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court in your district and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notification.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we will forward it to the original complainant. If the original complainant does not file a court action within 10 business days, we may restore the removed content.

5. Repeat Infringer Policy

In accordance with the DMCA, we maintain a policy of terminating the accounts of users who are determined to be repeat infringers of copyrighted works. We may also, in our sole discretion, limit access to the platform or terminate the accounts of users who infringe the intellectual property rights of others, whether or not there is any repeat infringement.

6. TAKE IT DOWN Act Notice

In addition to DMCA copyright claims, we comply with the federal TAKE IT DOWN Act (S.146). If you are the subject of non-consensual intimate imagery (NCII) hosted on our platform, including AI-generated content, you may submit a removal request through our takedown request form. We will remove such content within 48 hours of receiving a valid notice.

7. AI-Generated Content

Our platform generates images using artificial intelligence. While AI-generated content may not be directly covered by traditional copyright law, we take all takedown requests seriously. If AI-generated content on our platform resembles your copyrighted work or depicts you without consent, please submit a request and we will review it promptly.

8. Good Faith Warning

Please be aware that under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or that it was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, may be subject to liability for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees.
