DMCA Policy

Last Updated: February 06, 2026

InitiateGen.com operates an AI-powered platform dedicated to generating creative names for businesses, projects, and personal use. We fully respect the intellectual property rights of creators and content owners. This DMCA Policy details our commitment to complying with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), 17 U.S.C. § 512, and outlines procedures for reporting and resolving copyright infringement claims. Users of our name generation tools receive suggestions intended solely for their own applications, but they must independently verify that generated names do not infringe existing trademarks or other rights.

Our Commitment to Copyright Compliance

InitiateGen.com does not host or distribute user-uploaded files, images, or media that could directly infringe copyrights. Our service focuses on text-based AI-generated name ideas derived from user prompts. These outputs are original suggestions created by our algorithms and are provided for user inspiration. However, we prohibit any use of our platform to facilitate copyright infringement. If you believe material accessible through https://www.initiategen.com violates your copyright, we encourage prompt reporting via our designated process.

Copyright holders play a vital role in protecting their works. We respond swiftly to valid DMCA notices, removing or disabling access to allegedly infringing content while safeguarding fair use and other legal defenses. Our goal remains fostering innovation in name generation without compromising legal protections.

Designated DMCA Agent

InitiateGen.com has appointed a DMCA Agent to receive infringement notifications. All formal notices must be sent to:

  • Name: InitiateGen DMCA Agent
  • Email: [email protected]
  • Address: InitiateGen.com, [Redacted for Privacy], United States
  • Phone: Not applicable; email only

Submit notices only to this agent. General inquiries or non-DMCA complaints will not receive DMCA processing.

How to Submit a DMCA Takedown Notice

To report infringement, send a written notice to our DMCA Agent containing the following elements under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)(A):

  • A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or authorized agent.
  • Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed, or multiple works with a representative list.
  • Identification of the material alleged to infringe, with sufficient detail for location and removal (e.g., specific URLs on https://www.initiategen.com).
  • Contact information: name, address, phone, and email.
  • A statement that the complaining party believes in good faith no authorization exists for the use.
  • A statement, under penalty of perjury, that information provided is accurate and the party is authorized to act.

Example structure for clarity:

Subject: DMCA Takedown Notice – [Brief Description]

Dear InitiateGen DMCA Agent,

I, [Your Name], swear under penalty of perjury that the information in this notice is accurate…

[Detailed identifications and statements as listed above]

Sincerely,
[Signature]

We evaluate notices for completeness. Incomplete submissions delay processing. Upon receipt of a compliant notice, we remove or block access to the material expeditiously, typically within 24-48 hours.

Generated Names and User Responsibilities

Our AI tool produces name suggestions based on algorithms trained on public data. These names belong to users for their intended purposes, such as branding or projects. InitiateGen.com claims no ownership over generated outputs. Users must conduct their own due diligence, including trademark searches via USPTO or similar databases, to ensure no conflicts. We do not guarantee uniqueness or non-infringement of trademarks, copyrights, or other rights in generated names.

If a generated name inadvertently references copyrighted material, report it promptly. We refine our models based on feedback to minimize such occurrences.

Counter-Notification Process

Users receiving a takedown notice may submit a counter-notice if they believe the removal was mistaken. Send to the same DMCA Agent with these elements under 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3):

  • Your physical or electronic signature.
  • Identification of removed/blocked material and its prior location (e.g., URL).
  • A statement under penalty of perjury that the material was removed due to mistake or misidentification.
  • Your name, address, phone, email, and consent to jurisdiction of U.S. Federal District Court for the Northern District of California (or your location if accuser is outside U.S.).

Upon valid counter-notice, we notify the original complainant. If no court action or agreement occurs within 10-14 business days, we may restore access. False counter-notices risk legal liability for damages, costs, and attorney fees.

Repeat Infringer Policy

InitiateGen.com maintains a strict policy against repeat copyright infringement. Accounts or users engaging in three or more verified infringements face termination. We track notices and counters to identify patterns. Even one severe violation may prompt suspension. Appeals occur via [email protected], but decisions are final.

This policy supports a safe environment for legitimate AI name generation users.

False or Abusive Notices

Submitting knowingly false DMCA notices constitutes perjury and exposes the sender to liability under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), including damages and fees. We defend good-faith users against abuse. Complainants must reasonably investigate before notifying.

International Users and Safe Harbor

InitiateGen.com qualifies as a service provider under DMCA safe harbor provisions. We lack specific knowledge of infringement and act on notices. International copyright holders receive equivalent protections via Berne Convention reciprocity. EU or other users should consider local equivalents like EUCD.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy periodically. Continued use of https://www.initiategen.com post-changes implies acceptance. Check the “Last Updated” date for revisions.
