Copyright Reports
1. Who this page is for
This page is for you if you think an image made with ImageInAIChat uses your copyrighted work without permission. You do not need an ImageInAIChat account to send a report. We handle reports in line with the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and other copyright laws.
If the image is a sexual or intimate image of you, use our Report Intimate Images page instead. We remove the images in a valid request there within 48 hours of receiving it.
2. What to include in your report
- Your work. Describe the copyrighted work you think was copied. If there are several, a list is fine.
- The image. Tell us which image it is, so we can find it (see below).
- Your contact details. Your name, postal address, phone number and email address.
- A good-faith statement. A statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not allowed by the copyright owner, its agent or the law.
- An accuracy statement. A statement that the information in your report is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are allowed to act for the owner.
- Your signature. A physical or electronic signature. Typing your full name works.
How we find the image. We do not publish images. Each image is shown only in the chat of the person who made it, with a link to the file that works for 24 hours. So please send one of these:
- the link to the file, even if it no longer opens,
- the job ID shown in the chat with the image, or
- a copy of the image, with where and when you found it.
With a copy alone, we may not be able to find the image.
3. Where to send it
- Email: copyright@imageinaichat.com
- Handled by: AIRPOST GLOBAL PTE. LTD., the company that runs ImageInAIChat
Please use this email only for copyright reports. For anything else, email support@imageinaichat.com.
4. What happens next
- We aim to reply within 2 business days to confirm we got your report.
- If something is missing, we ask you for it.
- If the report is complete and valid, we block access to the image, so its link stops working. We aim to do this within 7 business days of getting the complete report.
- We tell the account holder, and we may send them a copy of your report.
- If an account gets 3 valid copyright reports, we close it. A report does not count if it is withdrawn or reversed after a counter-notice. Our Terms of Service say the same.
5. If your image was blocked by mistake (counter-notice)
If we blocked your image after a copyright report and you think this was a mistake, you can send a counter-notice to copyright@imageinaichat.com. Include:
- which image was blocked, for example its job ID (we include it in our email to you),
- a statement, under penalty of perjury, that you believe in good faith it was blocked by mistake or because it was misidentified,
- your name, postal address, phone number and email address,
- a statement that you agree to the jurisdiction of the US federal district court for your address (or, if your address is outside the United States, any US federal district court where we can be found), and that you will accept legal papers from the person who made the report or their agent, and
- your signature (physical or electronic).
We send a copy of your counter-notice, including your contact details, to the person who made the report. We then restore the image 10 to 14 business days after we receive your counter-notice, unless that person tells us before then that they have filed a court case against you over it.
6. False reports
Under the DMCA, anyone who knowingly makes a false report or counter-notice may have to pay damages. If you are not sure whether something infringes your rights, consider getting legal advice first.
7. Trademarks and other rights
For trademark complaints, email support@imageinaichat.com with the same kind of details, plus the registration number and the country where the mark is registered. If you think an image uses your name or likeness without permission, email support@imageinaichat.com too.
8. Copies outside ImageInAIChat
We can only act on images stored in ImageInAIChat. We cannot remove copies outside it, such as the copy shown in the chat where the image was made, a copy someone saved, or a copy posted on another website or app. For those, please also contact that website or app.
