Copyright & Intellectual Property Policy
​​
Last Updated: September 17, 2025
This Copyright & Intellectual Property Policy ("IP Policy") is an integral part of our Terms of Service and details our commitment to protecting intellectual property rights. TAG-d. ("we," "us," or "our") respects the intellectual property of others, and we expect our users to do the same.
Your use of our AI-powered sports graphic and digital poster application (the "Services") is subject to this policy.

Our Commitment to Intellectual Property
We provide powerful tools for creativity. These tools must be used responsibly. This policy outlines your responsibilities as a creator on our platform and the procedures we follow to address claims of intellectual property infringement.
-
Your Responsibilities as a Creator
You are solely responsible for the content you create and share using our Services. By using the Services, you represent and warrant that:
-
You Have the Rights to Your Inputs: You own or have obtained all necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to use and to authorize us to use any content you upload or submit as an "Input." This includes photographs, illustrations, logos, and any other creative materials.
-
Respect for Trademarks: You will not use third-party trademarks (e.g., official team logos, brand names like Nike or Adidas, league insignias like the NFL shield) in a manner that is likely to cause confusion, suggest affiliation or endorsement where none exists, or otherwise constitutes trademark infringement. While creating "fan art" for personal, non-commercial use may be permissible in some jurisdictions, you are responsible for understanding these limitations.
-
Respect for Publicity Rights: You will not use the likeness of any person, including athletes, coaches, or other public figures, in a manner that infringes on their right of publicity. This means you should not use their image for commercial purposes, in a defamatory way, or in a manner that creates a false endorsement without their explicit consent.
-
A Note on AI-Generated Content ("Outputs")
Our AI models are trained on vast amounts of data. While we strive to produce unique and original Outputs, the nature of machine learning means that an Output could unintentionally resemble existing copyrighted material, trademarks, or other protected works.
-
Your Responsibility to Review: You are responsible for reviewing your final Outputs to ensure they do not infringe on the rights of any third party.
-
No Warranty of Uniqueness or Non-Infringement: We provide the Outputs on an "AS IS" basis. We make no representations or warranties that the Outputs are original, unique, or will not infringe upon the intellectual property rights of a third party. You assume all risks associated with the use of the Outputs, particularly for commercial purposes.

How to Report Copyright Infringement (DMCA Takedown Notice)
If you are a copyright owner or an agent thereof and believe that any content hosted on our Services infringes upon your copyrights, you may submit a notification pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA").
To be effective, your DMCA notice must be in writing and sent to our Designated Copyright Agent with the following information:
-
A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
-
Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works.
-
Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material (e.g., a URL to the content).
-
Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an email address.
-
A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
-
A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
Upon receipt of a compliant notice, we will take whatever action we deem appropriate, in our sole discretion, including removal of the challenged content from the Services.
-
How to File a Counter-Notification (If Your Content Was Removed)
If you believe that your content was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may send a written counter-notification to our Designated Copyright Agent. The counter-notice must include:
-
Your physical or electronic signature.
-
Identification of the content that has been removed and the location at which the content appeared before it was removed.
-
A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the content was removed as a result of mistake or a misidentification of the content.
-
Your name, address, telephone number, and email address, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida if your address is outside of the United States, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original infringement notification.
-
How to Report Other Intellectual Property Violations (e.g., Trademark Infringement)
If you believe that content on our Services violates your trademark or other intellectual property rights (that are not copyright-related), please send a formal notice to our legal department at legal@tag-d.com. Your notice should include:
-
Identification of the intellectual property right you own.
-
Proof of your ownership (e.g., trademark registration number).
-
A clear identification of the content you believe is infringing.
-
Your contact information.
We will investigate these claims and take whatever action we deem appropriate in our sole discretion.

Enforcement and Repeat Infringer Policy
It is our policy, in appropriate circumstances and at our discretion, to disable and/or terminate the accounts of users who are found to be repeat infringers of copyrights or other intellectual property rights. This is a requirement to maintain our "safe harbor" status under the DMCA.

Legal Disclaimer
Our Services are a tool to empower user creativity. We do not and cannot review all content created on the platform. The responsibility for ensuring that content is non-infringing rests entirely with the user who creates it. We provide these policies and procedures to protect intellectual property rights, but we are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice.
