MusicianOS has designated the following agent to receive notifications of claimed copyright infringement under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. §512:
Name: TODO: operator — designated agent nameAddress: TODO: operator — designated agent mailing addressEmail: dmca@muos.app TODO: operator — confirm mailbox before launchPhone: TODO: operator — designated agent phone (optional but recommended)
TODO: operator — register this agent with the U.S. Copyright Office's Designated Agent Directory (a one-time, low-cost filing) before relying on this policy for safe-harbor protection — an unregistered agent does not qualify under §512(c)(2).
2. Filing a takedown notice
If you believe content on MusicianOS infringes your copyright, send a written notice to the designated agent above that includes:
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or someone authorized to act on their behalf.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed.
- Identification of the material claimed to be infringing, and information reasonably sufficient to let us locate it (e.g. the artist's page URL).
- Your contact information — address, telephone number, and email.
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are authorized to act on the copyright owner's behalf.
A notice missing these elements may not be actionable under §512. Upon receiving a valid notice, we will remove or disable access to the identified material and notify the artist who published it.
3. Filing a counter-notification
If your content was removed and you believe that was a mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notification to the designated agent that includes:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the material removed and its location before removal.
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
- Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your address (or, if outside the U.S., an appropriate judicial district), and that you'll accept service of process from the person who filed the original notice.
Upon a valid counter-notification, we may restore the material in 10–14 business days unless the original notifier informs us they've filed a court action seeking to restrain the alleged infringer.
4. Repeat infringer policy
We track valid takedown notices per artist account. An account that accumulates TODO: operator — set the repeat-infringer threshold (e.g. three valid notices) valid, uncontested takedown notices will have its account terminated, in accordance with our obligation to maintain a repeat infringer policy under §512(i).
5. Misrepresentation
Under §512(f), anyone who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or that its removal was a mistake, may be liable for damages. Please be sure of your claim before filing a notice or counter-notification.
