Identification of the infringing material and its location on the Service (URL).
Your contact information (name, address, phone number, email).

2. Counter-Notification

If you believe your content was removed in error, you may submit a counter-notification with:

Your physical or electronic signature.
Identification of the removed material and its former location.
A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed by mistake or misidentification.
Your name, address, phone number, and consent to jurisdiction of a federal court in your district.
A statement that you accept service of process from the complainant.

Upon receiving a valid counter-notification, we will forward it to the original complainant. If they do not file a court action within 10-14 business days, we may restore the content.

3. Repeat Infringer Policy

We maintain a repeat infringer policy. Users who receive multiple valid copyright complaints may have their accounts terminated. We consider:

The number and nature of complaints.
Whether the user filed counter-notifications.
The outcome of any counter-notification process.
Whether the infringement appears intentional.

4. Misrepresentation Warning

Under the DMCA, anyone who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing — or was removed by mistake — may be liable for damages, including costs and attorney's fees. Do not file false claims.

5. AI-Assisted Triage

We may use AI to assist in triaging copyright claims. All claims are subject to human review before action is taken. AI triage helps prioritize urgent claims but does not serve as the sole basis for content removal.

6. Audio and Music

Kaosly provides a library of licensed audio ("Tunes") for use in reels and stories. Using copyrighted music outside of this library without authorization may result in content removal. If a valid claim is made against audio in your content, the audio may be muted while the visual content remains available.
