Respecting Intellectual Property Rights
At LevelUpCraft, we value creativity and innovation, particularly in our AI-powered name generation tools. Our platform helps users discover unique names for projects, businesses, games, and more. We take copyright infringement seriously and comply fully with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). This policy explains how we handle claims of copyright violations on https://www.levelupcraft.com.
Users generate names through our AI tools for their personal or commercial use. These outputs belong to the users, who retain full rights to them. However, we advise verifying that any generated name does not infringe existing trademarks before widespread use. Our service does not perform trademark checks, so responsibility lies with the user.
Designated DMCA Agent
We have appointed a DMCA agent to receive infringement notifications. All takedown requests must go through this channel. Contact our agent at [email protected]. Include “DMCA Notice” in the subject line for prompt attention.
For formal registration, our agent’s details are on file with the U.S. Copyright Office. Provide your full name, mailing address, phone number, and email in notices. We do not accept verbal or phone complaints about copyright issues.
How to Submit a Valid DMCA Takedown Notice
To report alleged infringement, send a written notice to our DMCA agent. Your notice must meet specific legal requirements under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3). Incomplete notices may delay action or be rejected.
- A physical or electronic signature from the copyright owner or authorized agent.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed, or multiple works with a representative list if too many to specify.
- Identification of the material alleged to infringe, with enough detail for us to locate it on our site.
- Your contact information: address, phone, and email.
- A statement made in good faith that the use is unauthorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, you are the owner or authorized to act on behalf of the owner.
Example: If you spot user-generated content on our forums or shared outputs that copies your protected work, describe the exact URL, like https://www.levelupcraft.com/user-profile/example, and reference your original copyrighted material.
We process valid notices quickly, often within 24-48 hours. Expedited review applies to clear violations.
Our Response to DMCA Notices
Upon receiving a compliant notice, we act swiftly. We remove or disable access to the challenged material. Then, we notify the alleged infringer via email if contact details are available.
In cases involving AI-generated names shared publicly, we review context. User-shared outputs fall under this policy if they reproduce protected works verbatim. We do not host infringing files long-term.
If the material appears on third-party embeds or links, we may block those too. Our goal remains balancing creator rights with fair use and user expression.
Counter-Notification Process
If we remove your content based on a DMCA notice, you can submit a counter-notice. This lets you challenge the claim and request restoration. Send it to our DMCA agent at [email protected].
Counter-notices require:
- Your full legal name, address, phone, and email.
- Identification of the removed material and its original location, like https://www.levelupcraft.com/your-post/123.
- A statement under penalty of perjury that the removal resulted from mistake or misidentification.
- Consent to U.S. federal court jurisdiction in your removal notice’s location.
- Your physical or electronic signature.
We forward valid counter-notices to the complainant. If they do not file a lawsuit within 10-14 business days, we restore the material unless otherwise directed.
Handling Repeat Infringers
LevelUpCraft maintains a strict policy against repeat offenders. We track verified infringement claims. Accounts with multiple valid notices face suspension or termination. Factors include notice volume, prior warnings, and content nature.
First offense: warning and content removal. Second: temporary disable. Third or egregious: permanent ban. We notify users before major actions, except in urgent cases.
AI name generators produce novel outputs based on public data, minimizing infringement risk. Still, users sharing exact copies of protected works trigger reviews.
False or Abusive Notices
Submitting fraudulent DMCA notices violates our terms and U.S. law. Penalties include perjury charges, damages, and attorney fees under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f). We defend users against bad-faith claims vigorously.
If we suspect abuse, we reject the notice and may report to authorities. Complainants must indemnify us for losses from invalid claims.
Materials Not Covered by This Policy
This DMCA policy applies only to copyright claims. For trademarks, privacy, defamation, or other issues, use our general contact form or email [email protected]. Trademark disputes follow separate procedures.
Links to external sites do not imply endorsement. We remove links to known infringing content upon notification.
Global Users and Jurisdiction
Our site serves worldwide users. U.S. DMCA governs hosted content. International claimants follow equivalent local laws but use our agent for efficiency. EU users may reference Article 17 of the DSM Directive.
By using LevelUpCraft, you agree to this policy. Disputes resolve under California law, with venue in Los Angeles County courts.
User Responsibilities
Upload or share responsibly. Avoid reproducing copyrighted works without permission. Fair use may apply for criticism, commentary, or education—assess carefully.
For AI-generated names: Experiment freely, but check trademarks via USPTO or similar databases. Popular names risk conflicts; originals shine brightest.
We encourage crediting sources in shares. Community guidelines reinforce positive interactions.
Changes to This Policy
We update this policy periodically. Check the date at top. Continued site use post-changes means acceptance. Major revisions get announced via email or site banner.
