Legal

Terms of Use

Operator: Rulta OÜ ("Rulta", "we", "us"), the company behind DMCA.ai. Contact: [email protected]. Effective date: 7 July 2026.

By accessing or using DMCA.ai (the "Site"), you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.

1. What DMCA.ai is

DMCA.ai is a free educational resource, published by Rulta, that explains how to file DMCA takedown notices and remove stolen or leaked content, platform by platform and site by site. It includes guides, site-specific removal reports, and a free notice generator.

2. Not legal advice

Everything on the Site is provided for general information only and is not legal advice. See our Disclaimer for the full statement. You are responsible for the accuracy and good faith of any notice you file.

3. Acceptable use

You may read, share, and use the guidance on the Site to pursue takedowns of content in which you hold or represent the rights. You may not use the Site to break the law, to harass anyone, or to file notices you know to be false.

4. No scraping or automated bulk extraction

The removal data on the Site (takedown contacts, hosting and origin-host mappings, compliance assessments, de-indexing statistics, and the compiled index of sites) is a proprietary database compiled from Rulta's enforcement operations at significant cost. We reserve all rights in that database, including any applicable database and sui generis rights.

You may not, and may not permit others to:

  • use automated means (crawlers, scrapers, bots, headless browsers, or similar) to extract, harvest, copy, or index the Site's content for bulk collection or to build or enrich a competing dataset or service;
  • systematically download, reproduce, republish, or redistribute the Site's compiled data, whether in whole or in substantial part; or
  • circumvent, or attempt to circumvent, any rate limiting, access control, or other technical measure that protects the Site.

For clarity, we welcome AI assistants and search engines that honour our robots.txt to access and index the public pages of the Site in order to cite them. That permitted indexing does not grant any right to copy, store, or redistribute the Site's compiled database in bulk.

Automated access in breach of this section is unauthorised, and we may pursue technical and legal remedies, including under applicable computer-misuse and database-rights laws.

5. Intellectual property

The Site, its text, design, and compiled data are owned by Rulta or its licensors and are protected by intellectual-property laws. Platform names, logos, and trademarks referenced on the Site belong to their respective owners and are used for identification only.

6. Third-party sites

The Site links to third-party websites and services that we do not control and are not responsible for. Linking is not endorsement. See the Disclaimer.

7. No warranty

The Site is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including as to accuracy, currency, fitness for a particular purpose, or availability. Removal contacts, procedures, and statistics change constantly and may be out of date.

8. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Rulta and its affiliates are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss arising from your use of, or reliance on, the Site. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.

9. Changes

We may update these Terms as the Site evolves. Material changes will be reflected by a new effective date at the top of this page. Continued use of the Site after a change means you accept the updated Terms.

10. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of [[GOVERNING-LAW JURISDICTION, e.g. Estonia, where Rulta is established]], without regard to conflict-of-laws rules, and the courts of that jurisdiction have exclusive jurisdiction, to the extent permitted by applicable mandatory law.

Questions about these Terms: [email protected].
