OUR COMMITMENT

Phobik Studio™ respects the intellectual property rights of artists, creators, authors, musicians, publishers, and copyright owners.

We are committed to operating our Service in a manner that respects applicable copyright laws, including the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"), while also recognizing that artificial intelligence-generated content presents new and evolving legal considerations.

1. PURPOSE

This Policy supplements the Phobik Studio Terms of Service and applies to all users of the Service.

It explains:

• how copyright concerns are handled;
• how to report alleged infringement;
• how Phobik responds to notices;
• how users may submit counter-notifications where appropriate.

Nothing in this Policy limits any other rights or remedies available under applicable law.

2. AI-GENERATED CONTENT

Phobik Studio enables users to generate music, lyrics, titles, artwork, and related creative content using artificial intelligence.

Generated Content is created through automated AI systems based on user prompts and selections.

Because AI-generated works are an evolving area of law:

• Phobik does not guarantee that any Generated Content is unique.
• Phobik does not guarantee that Generated Content qualifies for copyright protection.
• Phobik does not represent that Generated Content is free from similarities to independently created works.
• Similar prompts from different users may produce similar creative outputs.

Users acknowledge these characteristics before using the Service.

3. RESPECT FOR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Users must respect the intellectual property rights of others.

You may not use the Service to knowingly:

• infringe another person's copyright;
• violate trademark rights;
• violate rights of publicity;
• misappropriate trade secrets;
• submit prompts intended to reproduce protected works without authorization;
• impersonate artists for deceptive purposes;
• encourage infringement of intellectual property rights.

While users may reference artistic styles or genres as part of the creative process, the Service may limit or refuse requests designed to imitate a specific living artist, reproduce copyrighted lyrics, or generate substantially similar content in violation of applicable law or platform safeguards.

4. REPORTING COPYRIGHT CONCERNS

If you believe material available through Phobik Studio infringes your copyright, you may submit a written notice requesting that we review the matter.

A copyright complaint should include:

• your full legal name;
• your mailing address;
• your email address;
• your telephone number (optional);
• identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed;
• identification of the material you believe is infringing;
• sufficient information to allow us to locate the material;
• a statement that you have a good-faith belief the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;
• a statement that the information in the notice is accurate; and
• a statement, under penalty of perjury where applicable, that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner's behalf.

Your notice must include your physical or electronic signature.

Incomplete notices may delay our review.

5. PHOBIK'S RESPONSE TO DMCA NOTICES

Upon receiving a facially valid copyright notice, Phobik may, as appropriate:

• investigate the claim;
• temporarily disable access to the identified content;
• remove the identified content;
• contact the affected user;
• request additional information from either party;
• take other actions permitted or required by law.

Submission of a copyright notice does not automatically establish that infringement has occurred.

Phobik reserves the right to evaluate each notice individually.

6. COUNTER-NOTIFICATIONS

If you believe your content was removed or disabled in error, you may submit a counter-notification where permitted by applicable law.

A valid counter-notification should include:

• your name and contact information;
• identification of the material removed or disabled;
• the location where the material previously appeared, if known;
• a statement, under penalty of perjury where applicable, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed due to mistake or misidentification;
• your consent to the jurisdiction of the appropriate court, where required by the DMCA; and
• your physical or electronic signature.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, Phobik may restore the material in accordance with applicable law unless the complaining party initiates legal proceedings within the applicable statutory period.

7. REPEAT INFRINGER POLICY

Phobik reserves the right to suspend or terminate the accounts of users who repeatedly infringe the intellectual property rights of others.

In determining whether a user is a repeat infringer, Phobik may consider factors such as:

• the number of substantiated complaints;
• the seriousness of the alleged conduct;
• whether the conduct appears intentional;
• prior warnings issued to the user; and
• any other relevant circumstances.

Nothing in this Policy obligates Phobik to terminate an account after any specific number of complaints.

8. FRAUDULENT OR BAD-FAITH CLAIMS

Submitting knowingly false or misleading copyright notices or counter-notifications may expose the submitting party to legal liability under applicable law.

Phobik reserves the right to reject notices that appear fraudulent, incomplete, abusive, or otherwise inconsistent with applicable law.

We may also report fraudulent conduct to appropriate authorities or pursue any remedies available under law.

9. AI CONTENT CONSIDERATIONS

Artificial intelligence is an emerging technology, and legal standards governing AI-generated content continue to evolve.

Accordingly:

• Similarity alone does not necessarily establish copyright infringement.
• AI-generated outputs may contain common themes, chord progressions, phrases, or stylistic elements that are independently created.
• Phobik evaluates copyright concerns based on applicable law and the specific facts presented.
• Nothing in this Policy should be interpreted as an admission that any AI-generated content is or is not copyrightable.

Users remain responsible for ensuring that their use of Generated Content complies with applicable law and the Phobik Studio Terms of Service.
