Copyright Policy
DesignTech AI respects intellectual property and expects its customers to. This policy explains how to tell us about content on the Service that you believe infringes your copyright, and what happens next. It follows the notice-and-takedown process of the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA).
The short version
A plain summary to help you read the document. It is not a substitute for it: the full text below is what applies.
- Send a written notice with the details listed below to our designated copyright agent.
- We remove or disable the material, tell the customer who posted it, and let them respond with a counter-notice.
- Accounts that repeatedly infringe are closed.
1. Reporting infringement
If you believe content hosted on the Service, including a page published from the Service, infringes a copyright you own or are authorized to act for, send our designated agent a written notice that includes:
- your physical or electronic signature;
- identification of the copyrighted work you say is infringed, or a representative list if there are several;
- identification of the material you say is infringing, with enough information for us to find it, such as its URL;
- your name, postal address, telephone number and email address;
- a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law; and
- a statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the owner or authorized to act on the owner's behalf.
A notice that does not include these elements may not be actionable. Under section 512(f) of the DMCA, anyone who knowingly makes a material misrepresentation in a notice or counter-notice may be liable for damages.
2. Designated copyright agent
Copyright Agent, DesignTech AI, Inc.
Email: legal@designtech.ai
Use this address for copyright notices only. Other questions go to support@designtech.ai, and other misuse to abuse@designtech.ai.
3. What we do with a notice
When we receive a notice that meets these requirements, we act promptly to remove or disable access to the material, and we tell the customer responsible, with a copy of the notice (which may include your contact details) so that they can respond.
4. Counter-notice
If your material was removed and you believe that was a mistake or a misidentification, you may send our designated agent a counter-notice that includes:
- your physical or electronic signature;
- identification of the material that was removed and where it appeared before removal;
- a statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification;
- your name, address and telephone number; and
- a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district where your address is (or, if you are outside the United States, any judicial district in which DesignTech AI may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who sent the original notice or their agent.
We will send a copy to the person who sent the original notice. Unless they tell us within 10 business days that they have filed a court action to restrain the activity, we may restore the material 10 to 14 business days after receiving the counter-notice.
5. Repeat infringers
In appropriate circumstances we close the accounts of customers who are repeatedly the subject of valid infringement notices, and we may remove material or restrict accounts before a notice is received where infringement is clear.
6. If the Service has collected content from your website
Customers can have the Service import websites and read pages for research, and they are responsible for how they use what is collected (see the Terms of Use and the Acceptable Use Policy). If you believe content from your site has been copied into a customer's published material, send a notice as described above.
To stop our page reader importing your pages, disallow the user agent DesignTechAI (or all user agents) in your site's robots.txt: before it imports a page the Service checks robots.txt and does not read a page that is disallowed for it. Some reads do not check robots.txt, and are listed in section 6 of the Terms of Use: brand capture from a homepage, the pictures on an imported page, YouTube video information and captions, and addresses the Studio or an AI capability reads or captures directly. When a page refuses the reader or comes back nearly empty, the Service may read it again through Bright Data's unlocking service, which is built to retrieve pages that turn automated readers away; for an import that happens only after robots.txt has allowed the page, and for the direct reads no robots.txt check is made. To ask us to stop any of these for your site, write to the address below. Research pages and records are collected for us by our web data provider, Bright Data, and we do not currently check robots.txt before those requests. If you object to your site's content being collected through the Service in that way, write to legal@designtech.ai with the domain concerned and we will review the request and tell you what we can do.
7. Trademarks and other rights
To report a trademark, privacy or other non-copyright complaint about content on the Service, write to legal@designtech.ai with the details. We handle these complaints under the Acceptable Use Policy.
