Intellectual Property

Copyright, trademark, and brand-use rules for Divine and Tiger LLC.

Effective date: May 16, 2026

Tiger LLC takes intellectual property seriously — both ours and yours. This page consolidates the copyright, trademark, and brand-use provisions that appear across our Terms of Service, our Community Guidelines, and our internal moderation policies, so that rights-holders, journalists, fan-art creators, and anyone else who interacts with our IP can find what they need in one place.

1. Whose IP is whose

1.1 Tiger LLC’s intellectual property

Tiger LLC owns the Divine name, the Divine wordmark and logo, the Divine visual design system, the “voice-first” tagline family, the sound design used in the App (call connect/disconnect tones, message-delivery sounds, the in-app gift animations), the Divine application source code, the back-end services that operate Divine, our internal moderation tooling, our public web properties (including divineapp.io), and all related trademarks, service marks, trade dress, copyrighted material, and other proprietary content. These are protected by United States and international intellectual property laws and are licensed to you only to the extent strictly necessary to use the App as a consumer.

1.2 Your User Content

You retain ownership of everything you create and upload to Divine — profile information, photos, voice messages, audio you contribute to Spaces, audio in a voice or video call, posts, Stories, comments, replies, reactions, and direct messages. By posting it you grant Tiger LLC the limited license described in our Terms of Service, which is needed for us to host your content, deliver it to the people you intend to reach, resize and transcode it for different layouts and bandwidths, and back it up for resilience.

1.3 Third-party content

Some content visible in or through the App is provided by third-party partners (font foundries, icon licensors, audio infrastructure providers, advertising networks). That content is owned by those parties and used by us under license. The presence of third-party content on Divine does not transfer any ownership of it to you.

2. Copyright complaints (DMCA)

Tiger LLC complies with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 512. If you believe that content on Divine infringes your copyright, you may submit a written notice (a “DMCA Notice”) to our designated agent. Misrepresentations made in a DMCA Notice can result in liability under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f).

2.1 Designated DMCA agent

Email: support@divineapp.io
Subject line: DMCA Notice
Tiger LLC, California, United States
(A physical address for service is available upon request.)

Tiger LLC’s designated agent registration with the U.S. Copyright Office is the authoritative point of contact for the purposes of 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(2).

U.S. Copyright Office Designated Agent Registration: [TBD — pending registration; once issued, the registration number will appear here. Anyone can verify the agent at dmca.copyright.gov]. Section 512(c)(2) of Title 17 of the U.S. Code requires service providers seeking safe harbor under the DMCA to register a designated agent with the U.S. Copyright Office.

Physical address for service of process under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(2): [Street address — to be added before public launch. Tiger LLC will publish a verifiable physical mailing address consistent with USCO designated-agent registration requirements.] The statute requires a physical mailing address, not solely an electronic contact, as part of the designated-agent designation.

2.2 What a valid DMCA Notice must contain

To be effective under § 512(c)(3), your notice must contain:

  • 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 works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works).
  • Identification of the material claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity that is to be removed or disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material (a URL or in-app link is ideal; a screenshot is helpful).
  • Contact information for the complainant, including address, telephone number, and email address.
  • A statement that the complainant has 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, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notification is accurate and that the complainant is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

2.3 What we do after we receive a valid notice

  • We will remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material expeditiously.
  • We will notify the user who posted the material, sending them a copy of the notice (with the complainant’s contact information redacted only where doing so is permitted by law).
  • We will track the affected account against our Repeat-Infringer Policy (Section 3).

2.4 Counter-notice

If you believe that material removed pursuant to a DMCA Notice was either misidentified or is being used in a manner consistent with copyright law (e.g., fair use, license, public domain), you may send a counter-notice to the same address as the original notice, with the subject line “DMCA Counter-Notice.” To be effective under § 512(g)(3), a counter-notice must contain:

  • Your physical or electronic signature.
  • Identification of the material that has been removed or disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or disabled.
  • A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
  • Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district in which your address is located, or, if your address is outside the United States, for any judicial district in which Tiger LLC may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the original complainant or its authorized agent.

After we receive a valid counter-notice, we will forward it to the original complainant. If the complainant does not file a court action seeking an order restraining you from engaging in infringing activity within ten (10) business days, we may replace the material or cease disabling access to it.

3. Repeat-Infringer Policy

Tiger LLC enforces a repeat-infringer policy under 17 U.S.C. § 512(i). The escalation ladder for an account that is the subject of multiple valid DMCA Notices in a rolling 12-month window is:

  • Notice 1: Material removed; account warned by email and in-app notification with educational copy linking to this page.
  • Notice 2: Material removed; affected feature (e.g., posts, Stories) suspended for 7 days; account flagged for moderation review.
  • Notice 3: Material removed; account suspended pending investigation.
  • Notice 4 (or any single severe/willful violation): Permanent termination of the account, including (where technically feasible) blocking of the underlying device and known recovery identifiers from being used to create future accounts.

Counter-notices and successful appeals are factored in. We may deviate from this ladder in either direction (stricter or more lenient) based on context, severity, and the user’s history.

4. EU Digital Services Act (Article 16) — Notice & Action

Tiger LLC accepts notice-and-action notifications under Article 16 of Regulation (EU) 2022/2065 (the Digital Services Act) by email to support@divineapp.io with the subject line “DSA Notice.” Notices may concern any content available through the App that the notifier considers to be illegal under EU law or the law of an EU Member State.

Under Article 16(2), a sufficiently substantiated notice must include:

  • (a) A sufficiently substantiated explanation of the reasons why the notifier alleges the information in question to be illegal content under Union law or the law of a Member State.
  • (b) A clear indication of the exact electronic location of that information, such as the precise URL or URLs, and, where necessary, additional information enabling the identification of the illegal content (e.g., the in-app screen, account handle, or message identifier).
  • (c) The name and an electronic mail address of the notifier, except in the case of information considered to involve one of the offences referred to in Articles 3 to 7 of Directive 2011/93/EU (child sexual abuse material), where this information is not required.
  • (d) A statement confirming the notifier’s good-faith belief that the information and allegations contained in the notice are accurate and complete.

Tiger LLC will acknowledge receipt of a DSA Article 16 notice without undue delay and will communicate its decision in respect of the information to which the notice relates to both the notifier and, where applicable, the affected user, together with a clear and specific statement of reasons as required by Article 17. Affected users may contest a moderation decision through our internal complaint-handling procedure and, where applicable, through an out-of-court dispute settlement body certified by the Digital Services Coordinator of the relevant EU Member State.

Tiger LLC is below the very-large-online-platform and very-large-online-search-engine thresholds set out in Article 33 of the DSA, and so is not subject to the supplementary obligations that apply to designated VLOPs / VLOSEs. We operate DSA-compliant notice intake regardless.

5. Hosted user audio under the EU Copyright DSM Directive (OCSSP)

Divine hosts user-generated audio, including voice messages in chat and Clans. We evaluate our status as an “online content-sharing service provider” (OCSSP) under Article 17 of Directive (EU) 2019/790 (the Copyright in the Digital Single Market Directive) on a per-jurisdiction basis, taking into account the criteria set out in Article 2(6) and the implementing legislation of the relevant Member State.

Where Article 17 obligations apply, Tiger LLC makes best efforts to obtain authorizations from rightsholders for protected works that may be hosted on the Service, responds expeditiously to valid rightsholder notices to disable access to or remove notified works, and applies best efforts to prevent the future availability of works for which rightsholders have provided the relevant and necessary information (so-called “stay-down” measures), in each case in accordance with the safeguards for users set out in Article 17(7) and Article 17(9).

Real-time audio carried during one-on-one voice match calls and live Spaces is routed through our voice-infrastructure partner and is not recorded or retained by Divine. Because such audio does not persist on our systems, it cannot be the subject of Article 17 hosting-platform obligations after the fact.

6. Trademark

6.1 Tiger LLC marks

The Divine name, the Divine wordmark and stylized logo, the call and notification sound family used in the App, and related taglines are trademarks or service marks of Tiger LLC. Use of these marks without express written permission is prohibited, including:

  • Using the Divine name or wordmark in a way that could suggest sponsorship, endorsement, or partnership when none exists.
  • Using the Divine logo within another logo, business name, or app icon.
  • Registering domains, social-media handles, or business names that contain “Divine” in a way likely to cause confusion.
  • Selling merchandise bearing the Divine name or logo.

6.2 Permitted uses

The following are generally permitted without prior written permission, provided the use is accurate and non-misleading:

  • Journalism & commentary: Referring to Divine or Tiger LLC by name in news articles, podcasts, reviews, blog posts, academic papers, or analyses, including with screenshots of the App.
  • Compatibility statements: Indicating that your product is compatible with, comparable to, or competes with Divine, provided you do not use our logo as your own and do not state or imply endorsement.
  • Personal use: Telling people you use Divine.

6.3 Reporting trademark abuse

To report a Divine-related trademark infringement (e.g., a fake “Divine” app or website, an impersonation account on another platform, a deceptive ad), email support@divineapp.io with the subject line “Trademark Abuse.” Please include URLs or screenshots and a brief description of the misuse.

6.4 Trademark complaints against another user

If you are a trademark owner who believes a Divine user is misusing your mark in the App (e.g., impersonating your brand, using your logo on their profile), email the same address with the subject line “Trademark Notice.” We do not require a court order to investigate trademark complaints, but we will need enough information to assess the claim. Please include:

  • The specific mark, owner, and (if applicable) registration number.
  • A description of how the user is using the mark on Divine.
  • Identification of the user (display name, @-handle, or URL).
  • A good-faith statement that the use is not authorized.
  • Your contact information.

7. Voice and likeness

Divine is a voice product. Your recorded voice is User Content and is protected as such under our Terms of Service. We do not license voice recordings of Divine users to third parties; we do not train artificial-intelligence voice models using user voice content; and we do not allow other users to do those things either. Specifically prohibited:

  • Recording another user’s voice from Divine without their explicit consent.
  • Using a recording from Divine (or any voice you obtain through Divine) to train a synthetic voice model.
  • Creating deepfakes or AI voice clones of Divine users.
  • Using captured Divine voice content in advertising, deepfake media, public broadcasts, or commercial products.

Violations are referred to law enforcement where applicable (state right-of-publicity statutes, federal and state wiretap laws, deepfake and synthetic-media statutes).

8. Press and brand-use guidelines

Journalists, researchers, podcasters, and partners covering Divine are welcome to use the marks and brand assets needed to do their work. Some guidelines:

  • Capitalization: Divine. Not DIVINE, divine, or Devine.
  • Spell the company name as Tiger LLC, in any reference to the operating entity.
  • Don’t alter the wordmark proportions, color, or condense it further than the original.
  • Don’t place the logo on a background that compromises legibility or implies endorsement.
  • Use of UI screenshots in coverage is fine; we ask that you avoid showing identifiable users without their consent.

Brand-asset packs are available on request to support@divineapp.io with the subject line “Brand Assets.”

9. Open-source software

The Divine application incorporates open-source software made available under various licenses (MIT, Apache 2.0, BSD, MPL, and others). A list of those components and their licenses is available inside the App under Settings → About → Open-Source Licenses and on request to the email above. Tiger LLC complies with the source-code-availability and attribution requirements of each license.

10. AI training

Tiger LLC does not use user voice content, user photos, posts, Stories, or messages to train artificial-intelligence models. We do not sell that content to AI developers. Where we use machine-learning tools to operate the App — for example, for image moderation or face verification — we do so through service providers under contractual restrictions that prohibit use of your data to train models for any other purpose.

If you encounter content on Divine that you believe was used without authorization to train an AI model, or that was generated by an AI model impersonating a real person, please report it as described above.
