If you believe your content was wrongly removed due to a DMCA notice, you may submit a counter-notification containing:

• Your physical or electronic signature
• Identification of the material that was removed and the location where it appeared before removal

6. Repeat Infringer Policy

In accordance with Section 512(i) of the DMCA, Music Genie maintains a policy to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, account holders who are repeat infringers:

A "valid DMCA notice" means a notice that complies with all requirements of 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) and is not successfully countered under § 512(g). We may also terminate accounts for any user who attempts to circumvent our copyright protection measures.

Counter-Notice Abuse: We reserve the right to terminate accounts that submit false or abusive counter-notices. Knowingly submitting a false counter-notice may result in liability under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f).

7. User-Generated Content

While Music Genie generates original AI music, users may upload video content to our platform for analysis. Users are solely responsible for ensuring they have the rights to upload any content to our service. We do not claim ownership of user uploads and process them solely for the purpose of generating matched music. Uploaded videos are deleted within 24 hours of processing.

Please ensure your claims are accurate before submitting a DMCA notice.
