Copyright & DMCA Policy

Last updated: June 20, 2026

Nommer respects the intellectual-property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. This policy explains how to report copyrighted material you believe has been used on Nommer without authorization, and how we respond.

1. Recipes, attribution & what appears on Nommer

Nommer turns a recipe you provide — from a link, a photo, or text — into a step-by-step cooking plan. Recipes you import stay private to you unless you choose to share one to the public community feed. When you do, the shared card links back to the original source so credit and traffic flow to the creator. We don't publish your imports to the feed automatically.

Under U.S. law, the functional parts of a recipe — a list of ingredients and the basic steps to make a dish — are generally not protected by copyright. Substantial literary expression (headnotes, stories, descriptive prose) and photographs are protected. If you believe protected material of yours appears on Nommer without authorization, follow the steps below and we'll act on it.

2. How to file a copyright (DMCA) notice

If you are a copyright owner (or authorized to act for one) and believe material on Nommer infringes your copyright, send a written notice to our Designated Agent (Section 4). To be effective under 17 U.S.C. §512(c)(3), your notice must include all of the following:

• A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf.
• Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed (or a representative list, if multiple works).
• Identification of the material you claim is infringing, with enough detail for us to locate it — ideally the recipe's link on Nommer, its title, and/or the original source URL.
• Your contact information: name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
• A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
• A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner's behalf.

Email your notice to nommer@mailer.nommer.ai. Once we receive a valid notice, we'll remove or disable access to the material promptly and make a good-faith effort to notify the user who shared it.

3. Counter-notice

If you believe your material was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice to the same address. Under 17 U.S.C. §512(g) it must include your signature; identification of the removed material and where it appeared; a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief it was removed by mistake or misidentification; your name, address, and phone number; and your consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for your district (or, if outside the U.S., any district in which Nommer may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the complainant.

4. Designated Agent

Notices and counter-notices under this policy should be sent to Nommer's DMCA Designated Agent:

• By email: nommer@mailer.nommer.ai (fastest)
• Agent: [TODO: agent name] — DMCA Designated Agent, Nommer
• By mail: [TODO: mailing address]

Our Designated Agent is also listed in the U.S. Copyright Office's DMCA Designated Agent Directory.

5. Repeat infringers

Nommer maintains a policy of removing material in response to valid notices and, in appropriate circumstances, restricting or terminating the feed-sharing ability or accounts of users who repeatedly share infringing material.

6. Misrepresentations

Under 17 U.S.C. §512(f), anyone who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing — or was removed by mistake — may be liable for damages. Please make sure your claim is accurate before submitting it.
