DMCA / Copyright Policy

Our designated agent for receiving DMCA takedown notices is:

Name: David Waring

Email: dmca@braindrive.ai

Mailing Address: 131 Continental Dr., Suite 305, Newark, DE 19713

This agent is registered with the U.S. Copyright Office.

If you believe that content on a BrainDrive service infringes your copyright, you may submit a takedown notice to our designated agent. Your notice must include all of the following:

1. Your contact information. Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work. A description of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed. If multiple works are covered by a single notification, a representative list.
3. Identification of the infringing material. A description of the material you claim is infringing and that you want removed, with enough information for us to locate it. For the BrainDrive Community: Include a link to the post or topic. For BrainDrive Concierge: Because Concierge content is stored in private, per-person containers, please provide as much identifying detail as possible (e.g., the account, the nature of the content, how you became aware of it).
4. Good faith statement. 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. Accuracy statement. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf.
6. Your signature. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf.

Send your notice to: dmca@braindrive.ai

We will not process notices that do not substantially comply with the requirements above. If your notice is incomplete, we will attempt to contact you for the missing information before taking action.

When we receive a valid takedown notice:

1. We act expeditiously to remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material.
2. We notify the affected person whose content was removed, providing them with a copy of the takedown notice (with your personal contact information redacted as appropriate) and information about how to file a counter-notification.
3. We document the notice for our records and repeat infringer tracking.

If your content was removed and you believe it was taken down in error or due to misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification to our designated agent. Your counter-notification must include all of the following:

1. Your contact information. Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
2. Identification of the removed material. A description of the material that was removed and where it appeared before removal.
3. Good faith statement. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
4. Consent to jurisdiction. A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if your address is outside the United States, the District of Delaware), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original takedown notice or their agent.
5. Your signature. A physical or electronic signature.

Send your counter-notification to: dmca@braindrive.ai

When we receive a valid counter-notification:

1. We forward a copy to the original complainant.
2. We inform the complainant that the removed material will be restored in 10 business days unless they file a court action seeking a restraining order.
3. If no court action is filed within 10—14 business days, we restore the removed content.

BrainDrive maintains a policy for terminating the accounts of repeat infringers. Specifically:

• Anyone who receives three valid takedown notices within any 12-month period will be considered a repeat infringer.
• Repeat infringers are subject to permanent account termination — this may include Concierge hosting, BrainDrive Community access, and BrainDrive Models API access.
• Before terminating a repeat infringer’s account, we will provide notice and a 30-day window to export data (consistent with our standard data preservation policy), unless immediate termination is required by law.
• Counter-notifications that result in content restoration are not counted toward the repeat infringer threshold.

Your self-hosted BrainDrive is unaffected. Account termination under this policy applies to BrainDrive-hosted services only. Your self-hosted BrainDrive installation, your locally stored data, and your ability to run BrainDrive on your own hardware are never affected.

Under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, anyone who knowingly makes a material misrepresentation in a takedown notice or counter-notification may be liable for damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees. If you are unsure whether material infringes your copyright, consider seeking legal advice before filing a notice.
