DMCA Policy

Last Updated: February 04, 2026

Respecting Intellectual Property Rights

At https://www.hkzkny.com, we prioritize the protection of intellectual property. Our platform leverages AI to generate creative names for various uses, such as businesses, characters, or projects. We comply fully with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and other applicable laws. This ensures a safe environment where creators can thrive without unauthorized use of their works.

Copyright holders play a vital role in maintaining the integrity of online content. We respond promptly to valid notices of infringement. Our process follows established legal standards to balance the rights of owners and users alike.

AI Name Generation and User Responsibilities

Our AI tools produce unique name suggestions based on user inputs. These generated names belong to the users for their personal or commercial purposes. However, users must independently verify that any selected name does not infringe existing trademarks or other rights. We do not perform trademark searches or guarantee availability.

While names themselves are often not copyrightable, content uploaded by users—such as logos, images, or descriptive text—may be protected. We host only outputs from our AI service and do not store user data beyond what’s necessary for functionality.

  • Generated names serve as starting points for creativity.
  • Users assume responsibility for final usage and legal clearance.
  • We encourage consulting legal professionals for branding decisions.

Valid DMCA Takedown Notices

To report alleged copyright infringement on our site, submit a notice that meets DMCA requirements. This helps us identify and address issues efficiently. Incomplete notices may delay action.

A proper notice must be in writing and include specific details. We review each submission carefully before taking steps like removing content.

  • 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 enough information for us to locate it.
  • Contact information, including name, address, telephone number, and email address.
  • A statement that the complaining party believes in good faith that use is not authorized by the owner, agent, or law.
  • A statement that the information is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, the complaining party is authorized to act.

Send notices to our designated agent via email. We aim to process valid requests within 24-48 hours.

Our Response to Notices

Upon receiving a compliant notice, we expeditiously remove or disable access to the challenged material. We notify the user associated with the content about the action taken. This preserves transparency.

In cases involving AI-generated outputs, we assess whether the material truly resides on our servers. User-downloaded names do not fall under our purview post-generation.

We may also forward the notice to the user for their records. This fosters accountability across our community.

Counter-Notifications for Users

If we remove your content following a DMCA notice, you can submit a counter-notification. This asserts your belief that the removal was a mistake, such as due to fair use or authorization.

Counter-notices require similar specificity to original claims. We restore content unless the copyright owner files a court action within 10-14 business days.

  • Your physical or electronic signature.
  • Identification of the removed material and its original location.
  • A statement under penalty of perjury that the removal was not due to copyright infringement but mistake or misidentification.
  • Your name, address, phone, email, and consent to jurisdiction in federal court.

Direct counter-notices to the same agent email: [email protected]. Expect a response outlining next steps.

Policy on Repeat Infringers

We maintain a strict policy against repeat copyright infringement. Accounts engaging in multiple violations face termination. We track substantiated claims to enforce this.

First offenses prompt warnings and content removal. Subsequent valid notices lead to suspensions. Chronic abusers lose access permanently.

This approach safeguards the platform while respecting due process. We review patterns holistically, considering counter-notices and context.

Fair Use and Legal Defenses

Not every use of copyrighted material constitutes infringement. Defenses like fair use allow limited purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, or research. Courts evaluate factors including purpose, nature of work, amount used, and market effect.

Our AI draws from public knowledge to generate names, avoiding direct copying of protected texts. Users invoking fair use in counters should detail their argument.

We do not preemptively judge fair use claims. Instead, we defer to the DMCA process, enabling parties to resolve disputes legally.

International Considerations

As a global service, https://www.hkzkny.com receives reports from around the world. We honor equivalent notices under treaties like the Berne Convention where applicable.

Non-US claimants should provide comparable information. We cooperate with foreign authorities on valid requests.

Users outside the US agree to US law governance for disputes, as outlined in our Terms of Service.

Abuse of the DMCA Process

Misusing DMCA for harassment or competitive sabotage carries consequences. Section 512(f) holds parties liable for damages from knowingly false claims.

We investigate suspected abuse and may countersue or report to authorities. Legitimate reports receive priority; bad-faith ones undermine trust.

Examples include claiming public domain works or ignoring fair use. Our team verifies claims before acting.

Preservation of User Privacy

Handling DMCA matters, we share notice details with implicated users as required. This excludes complainant anonymity where prohibited.

We adhere to privacy laws like CCPA and GDPR. Personal data from notices stays confidential except as legally compelled.

Technological Measures

We employ tools to detect potential infringement proactively. AI outputs undergo checks against known copyrighted phrases.

However, no system is foolproof. User vigilance complements our efforts.

Future updates may include advanced hashing or watermarking for generated content traceability.

Business Use of Generated Names

Many visitors use our AI for startup names, domain ideas, or product branding. While convenient, success hinges on due diligence.

Search USPTO, EUIPO, and global databases. Consult attorneys for clearance opinions.

We disclaim liability for third-party claims arising from user-selected names.
