Choicely Copyright Policy

1. Notice of copyright infringement (“Notice”)

If you believe content on the Services infringes a copyright you own or are authorized to enforce, please send a Notice to our designated agent (Section 4) including the following information:

1. Identification of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed (or, for multiple works, a representative list).
2. Identification of the material that you claim is infringing and that you want removed or disabled, with sufficient detail to allow us to locate it (such as a URL or in-product identifier).
3. Your full name, postal address, telephone number, and email address.
4. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
5. A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the Notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on behalf of the owner.
6. Your physical or electronic signature.

Incomplete Notices may delay our response. We may forward a copy of your Notice (including your contact information) to the user who submitted the affected content.

2. How we respond to Notices

On receipt of a complete Notice, we will review it and, where appropriate, remove or disable access to the affected content, notify the user, and, in the case of repeat infringers, terminate accounts. We will not act on Notices that are abusive, that misrepresent the rights claimed, or that we reasonably believe were submitted in bad faith.

3. Counter-notice

If your content has been removed or disabled and you believe this was a mistake or that you have the right to use the material, you may send a counter-notice (“Counter-Notice”) to the designated agent including:

1. Your full name, postal address, telephone number, and email address.
2. Identification of the material that has been removed or disabled and the location at which it appeared before it was removed or disabled.
3. A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
4. A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the courts where you reside (or, if outside the U.S., of any judicial district in which Choicely may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original Notice or that person’s agent.
5. Your physical or electronic signature.

On receipt of a valid Counter-Notice, we may forward it to the original complainant. Unless we receive notice that the complainant has filed an action seeking a court order against you, we may restore the affected content within 10–14 business days, in line with applicable law.

4. Designated agent and contact

Notices and Counter-Notices should be sent to:

Choicely Copyright Agent

Choicely Oy

Email: [email protected]

Postal address: please contact the email above to obtain the current postal address for service.

For DMCA purposes, our designated agent is also registered with the U.S. Copyright Office. The current registration is available through the Copyright Office’s online directory.

5. Repeat-infringer policy

Choicely will, in appropriate circumstances and in our sole discretion, terminate the accounts of users who are repeat infringers. We may also terminate accounts in any single case of clear and serious infringement.

6. AI Builder and generated content

Customers of the AI Builder are responsible for reviewing AI Output before publishing it and for ensuring that AI Output does not infringe third-party rights. Where we receive a Notice concerning AI Output, we will treat it like any other claim of infringement under this policy. The fact that content was generated by an AI does not, by itself, immunize it from copyright claims.

7. Misuse of this policy

Submitting false or misleading Notices or Counter-Notices may result in liability under applicable law, including under Section 512(f) of the DMCA. Please consider consulting a lawyer if you are uncertain whether the use of material is infringing or is permitted under exceptions such as fair use, fair dealing, or quotation rights.

8. Other intellectual property and content claims

For trademark, publicity-rights, defamation, or other non-copyright claims, please write to [email protected]. For requests under the EU Digital Services Act (including statements of reasons and out-of-court dispute settlement), please use the same address; we will publish DSA-specific contact information once required for the size and category of our service.
