IP takedown & DMCA
If you believe an OBJEKT user has uploaded or generated content that infringes your intellectual property rights, this page tells you how to ask us to remove it. We take these notices seriously and act on validated reports quickly.
1What we will act on.
We will act on properly-formed takedown notices alleging:
- Copyright infringement (including under the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act and equivalent regimes elsewhere);
- Registered trademark or trade-dress infringement;
- Misappropriation of publicity or likeness rights (for content depicting a real, identifiable person without authorisation);
- Unauthorised use of a product reference belonging to your brand or your client.
If your complaint is not strictly an IP claim — for example, a general Acceptable Use violation — please use abuse@objekt-ai.com instead.
2How to send a notice.
Email your notice to legal@objekt-ai.com with the subject line “IP takedown”. Include the following:
- Who you are. Your full name, organisation, postal address, and email. If you are acting on behalf of a rights holder, the name of that rights holder and your authority to act.
- What you own. A clear description of the copyrighted work, registered trademark, or other right you claim has been infringed. Registration numbers or URLs to your own published material help us move quickly.
- What is infringing. The URL or in-product identifier of the OBJEKT-hosted content you are asking us to remove. Screenshots help.
- Good-faith statement. 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.
- Accuracy statement. A statement that the information in your notice is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorised to act on behalf of the rights holder.
- Signature. A physical or electronic signature.
3What happens next.
- We acknowledge receipt within 2 business days.
- Where the notice is facially valid, we will remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing content and notify the uploading user, sharing your notice (with personal contact details redacted unless you specifically authorise disclosure).
- The uploading user may file a counter-notice. If they do, we will share it with you and (where the original claim is a US DMCA copyright claim) may restore the content after 10 business days unless you have notified us of a lawsuit.
- We maintain a record of notices and repeat-infringer status. Users with repeat valid claims against them will be terminated.
4Counter-notices.
If your content was removed because of a notice you believe to be mistaken or invalid, you can send a counter-notice to legal@objekt-ai.com. Include:
- Your name, address, and email;
- Identification of the removed content and its prior location in OBJEKT;
- A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the content was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification;
- Consent to the jurisdiction of the courts of Ras Al Khaimah, UAE (or, for users in the United States, the federal district court for the district in which you reside or, if outside the US, any judicial district in which OBJEKT may be found), and consent to accept service of process from the original complainant;
- Your physical or electronic signature.
5False claims.
Sending a takedown notice you know to be materially false may make you liable for damages — including costs and attorneys’ fees — to the alleged infringer and to OBJEKT. We will treat obviously-abusive notices as such and may report them.
6Trade-dress and brand-imitation notices.
OBJEKT’s acceptable-use rules prohibit users from generating imagery that imitates a brand they do not own (see Acceptable Use Policy §2). If you are reporting a trade-dress or brand-imitation issue, tell us in the notice and we will route the report to our content-moderation review in addition to the IP team.
