Intellectual-Property Infringement & Notice-and-Takedown Policy

1. Scope and our commitment

We respect the intellectual-property and related rights of others and expect our users to do the same. This Policy covers complaints about copyright, trademark, trade dress, design rights, right of publicity, image and personality rights, and similar rights, in relation to prompts, reference images, conversations, generated models, textures, previews, and any other content made available through the Service.

We will review properly submitted notices and act on valid ones in a reasonable and timely manner, including by removing or disabling access to the identified material and, where appropriate, taking action against repeat infringers. Acting on a notice is not an admission that any infringement occurred and does not waive any defence or right.

2. Designated channel for all notices

All notices of claimed infringement, counter-notifications, trademark complaints, right-of-publicity and likeness complaints, and related correspondence must be sent to copyright@meshpilot.cc. This is the only channel designated for these matters.

Notices submitted through in-app support, social media, or any other address may not be processed and will not start any timeline. A likeness complaint that also involves personal data may additionally be sent to privacy@meshpilot.cc.

3. What a valid infringement notice must include

To allow us to act, your notice should be in writing and include at least the following. A notice that omits required elements may be invalid and may not start any timeline; we may ask you to supply missing information.

• Your full name, postal address, email address, and (if relevant) the rights-holder you represent and your authority to act.
• Identification of the right you are asserting (for example, the copyrighted work, the trademark and the goods/services it covers, or the person whose likeness is at issue) and, where applicable, evidence of ownership or registration.
• Identification of the specific material you believe infringes, with enough detail (such as a direct link, conversation reference, model name, or screenshot) for us to locate it.
• A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use of the material is not authorised by the rights-holder, its agent, or the law.
• A statement that the information in your notice is accurate, and (where you assert it on behalf of the rights-holder) that you are authorised to act.
• Your physical or electronic signature.

Knowingly making a material misrepresentation in a notice or counter-notification may expose you to liability for damages under applicable law.

4. How we respond

Upon receipt of a substantially compliant notice, we will act expeditiously to remove or disable access to the identified material, take reasonable steps to notify the affected user (with a copy of the notice and information on how to object), and record the notice for our repeat-infringer process. We may also remove or disable access to material proactively where we reasonably believe this Policy or the Terms have been breached.

5. Counter-notification (objecting to a removal)

If your content was removed or disabled and you believe this was a mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification to copyright@meshpilot.cc including: your name, address, and email; identification of the material and its prior location; a statement, under penalty of perjury where applicable, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification; your consent to an appropriate dispute-resolution forum; and your signature.

U.S.-DMCA restoration timing and any requirement to consent to U.S. federal-court jurisdiction apply principally where you, the complainant, or the activity has a U.S. nexus. We provide a counter-notice path for non-U.S. users that does not force U.S. jurisdiction. Where required, we may restore material a set period after a valid counter-notice unless the complainant notifies us that they have sought a court order.

6. Repeat infringers

We implement a repeat-infringer process and may, in appropriate circumstances, limit or terminate the Accounts, Wallets, API keys, or access of users who are repeat infringers — including after three or more unreversed strikes, or for egregious, willful, or large-scale infringement. No refund of any blockchain payment is owed on removal or termination under this Policy; refunds of card-based Credits, if any, are governed by the Terms and applicable law.

7. Trademark, likeness, and other rights

This mechanism also covers trademark, trade-dress, right-of-publicity, image-rights, and personality-rights complaints, which should likewise be sent to copyright@meshpilot.cc. Likeness complaints that also involve personal data may additionally be sent to privacy@meshpilot.cc.

8. Safe-harbor status

We do not represent that our designated agent is registered with the U.S. Copyright Office unless and until that registration has actually been completed. Until then, U.S. DMCA Section 512 safe-harbor protection may be reduced, and this Policy reflects the current registration status accurately. This Policy does not limit any other right or remedy available to us or to rights-holders under applicable law.
