DMCA Policy

Last Updated: January 19, 2026

Edygep.com respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. As a creative identity AI name generator, our platform provides tools for users to generate unique names for personal or commercial projects. We respond to clear notices of alleged copyright infringement under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and promptly remove or disable access to infringing material when properly notified. This policy details how copyright owners can report claims of infringement hosted on our site, how we handle such reports, and the process for counter-notifications. Users generating names via our AI tools own the output for their use, though they must independently verify that generated names do not infringe existing trademarks or copyrights.

Our Commitment to Copyright Compliance

We maintain a strict policy against the upload, distribution, or display of copyrighted material without proper authorization. Our service focuses on AI-generated creative content, primarily names and identities, which users can customize and apply to branding, usernames, or projects. However, if any generated or uploaded content infringes copyrights, we will act swiftly upon valid notification.

  • We do not store user-generated names indefinitely unless users opt to save them in their accounts.
  • AI outputs are unique per generation but may coincidentally resemble protected works; users bear responsibility for clearance.
  • Site-hosted images, text, or other assets are licensed or owned by us or our partners.

By using https://www.edygep.com, you agree not to infringe copyrights and acknowledge our right to terminate accounts for repeat violations.

How to File a DMCA Takedown Notice

If you believe material on our site infringes your copyright, submit a written notification to our Designated DMCA Agent. Your notice must include specific elements to be effective under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3). Incomplete notices may delay processing.

Submit notices via email to our agent at [email protected]. For urgent matters, follow up with a phone call if contact details are provided in response.

Required Elements of a DMCA Notice

A proper DMCA notice must be signed (physically or electronically) and include:

  • Your physical or electronic signature as the copyright owner or agent authorized to act on their behalf.
  • Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed, or multiple works with a representative list if targeted broadly.
  • Identification of the material alleged to infringe, with sufficient detail for us to locate it (e.g., exact URL on https://www.edygep.com).
  • Your contact information: mailing address, phone number, and email address.
  • A statement that you have a good faith belief the use is not authorized 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 copyright owner or authorized to act.

Example structure for clarity:

Subject: DMCA Takedown Notice – [Brief Description]
[Your Signature]
[Your Contact Info]
[Detailed Description of Infringing Material and URLs]
[Good Faith Statements]

Processing Your Notice

Upon receipt of a compliant notice, we will:

  1. Expeditiously remove or disable access to the identified material.
  2. Notify the alleged infringer (user who posted or generated the content) of the claim, including a copy of your notice.
  3. Forward your notice to the user for their response.

We do not verify claims before action; removal occurs pending resolution. False or bad-faith notices may expose you to liability, including damages for misrepresentation under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f).

For AI-generated names, note that outputs are algorithmic and not pre-vetted. If a generated name matches protected content, provide evidence of exact infringement (e.g., screenshot of generation tied to specific user session if applicable). Users should always search trademarks via USPTO or similar databases before commercial use.

Counter-Notification Process

If your content is removed in response to a DMCA notice, you may file a counter-notification if you believe the claim was mistaken. This restores access unless the complainant pursues legal action.

Send counter-notices to [email protected] with:

  • Your physical or electronic signature.
  • Identification of the removed material and its original location (e.g., URL before removal).
  • Your name, address, phone, and email.
  • A statement under penalty of perjury that the material was removed due to mistake or misidentification.
  • Consent to jurisdiction of federal courts in your U.S. district or, if abroad, any U.S. district where the service provider is located.

We will forward your counter-notice to the complainant. If no lawsuit is filed within 10-14 business days, we may repost the material.

Repeat Infringers

Edygep.com terminates access for users deemed repeat copyright infringers. Factors include:

  • Multiple valid takedown notices against the same account.
  • Evidence of willful infringement.
  • Failure to respond to notices.

We track violations internally and act at our discretion. No fixed strike system; decisions consider context, especially for AI generations where coincidence is possible.

Generated Content and User Responsibility

Our AI name generator creates original suggestions based on user inputs. Users receive full rights to generated names for personal use, but:

  • Verify trademarks independently using tools like USPTO.gov or EUIPO.
  • Do not claim exclusive rights to common words or phrases output by AI.
  • We disclaim liability for third-party claims arising from user-generated or AI-suggested content.

If infringing material appears in generations (rare, as we train on public data), report it promptly. We refine models to avoid known protected phrases.

International Users and Safe Harbor

As a U.S.-based service, we qualify for DMCA safe harbor protections under 17 U.S.C. § 512. International copyright holders should reference local equivalents (e.g., EU Copyright Directive) but use our DMCA process for efficiency. We accommodate notices compliant with U.S. law.

Non-U.S. users: Understand that counter-notices require U.S. court consent, but we handle disputes fairly.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this DMCA Policy periodically. Continued use of https://www.edygep.com after changes constitutes acceptance. Check the “Last Updated” date for revisions.

This process ensures swift resolution while protecting legitimate users. Our goal remains fostering creativity without infringing rights.

In cases involving trademarks rather than copyrights, use our general contact form, as DMCA applies strictly to copyrights. For AI-specific disputes, provide model input/output logs if available.

We prohibit automated scraping or bulk generation that could infringe databases. Violators face immediate bans.

DMCA Agent Designation

Our Designated DMCA Agent is:

Name: Edygep Compliance Officer
Email: [email protected]
Address: Edygep, Inc., [Redacted for Privacy], United States
Phone: Available upon request via email.

This designation complies with 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(2). Register with the U.S. Copyright Office if needed for formal records.

Users outside the U.S. may submit notices in English; translations assist but are not required.

Transparency: We publish aggregate takedown stats annually on our blog, anonymized to protect privacy.

Edge cases, like AI hallucinations mimicking copyrights, are handled case-by-case. Evidence of direct copying from protected sources accelerates removal.
