DMCA

Last Updated: September 2025

At SunooAI, we respect intellectual property rights and are committed to protecting copyrighted material in compliance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), 17 U.S.C. § 512.

This DMCA Policy outlines how copyright holders can report infringements, how we process takedown requests, and what steps are taken to resolve disputes. By using sunooai.com, you agree to this DMCA Policy in full.

1. Introduction

The internet thrives on sharing knowledge, creativity, and innovation. But while we encourage freedom of expression, we also recognize the importance of respecting copyright laws.

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) is a U.S. law designed to protect copyright holders against unauthorized use of their content online. Even though SunooAI is based in Mumbai, India, our platform is accessible globally, including in the United States. That’s why we comply with DMCA standards, alongside other international copyright laws.

Our goal is to balance innovation with fairness—to protect the rights of creators while ensuring our community can continue to learn and grow responsibly.

2. What is the DMCA?

The DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998) is a U.S. copyright law that provides guidelines for:

• Copyright Holders: Allowing them to request removal of infringing content.
• Service Providers (like SunooAI): Protecting them from liability if they respond promptly to takedown notices.
• Users: Allowing counter-notifications if their content is wrongly removed.

In simple terms, the DMCA creates a framework where copyright protection and free expression coexist.

3. Our Commitment

At SunooAI, we are committed to:

• Respecting intellectual property rights.
• Promptly addressing valid DMCA takedown requests.
• Providing a fair counter-notification process for users.
• Maintaining a safe and lawful environment for creators, learners, and innovators.

We strictly prohibit the use of our platform to upload, share, or distribute copyrighted material without permission.
