**Are you the copyright holder or authorized to act on the copyright owner's behalf? If you are submitting this notice on behalf of a company, please be sure to use an email address on the company's domain.

Yes, I am the copyright holder.

**Are you submitting a revised DMCA notice after GitHub Trust & Safety requested you make changes to your original notice?**

No

**Does your claim involve content on GitHub or npm.js?**

GitHub

**Please describe the nature of your copyright ownership or authorization to act on the owner's behalf.**

I am [private] & [private] of Ironbound Fitness, Inc., which owns the copyright in the work
described above, and I am authorized to act on the company's behalf in this
matter.

The company's ownership arises in two ways. First, the application was created
for and at the direction of Ironbound Fitness, Inc. Second, the portions written
by the independent contractor referred to above were produced under a written
agreement containing an intellectual-property assignment clause, which
transferred all right, title, and interest in that work to Ironbound Fitness,
Inc., and that contractor was separately bound by an executed non-disclosure
agreement.

No rights in this code have been licensed, assigned, or otherwise transferred to
any third party, and no permission to reproduce or publish it was ever granted.

**Please provide a detailed description of the original copyrighted work that has allegedly been infringed.**

The work is the complete source code of "Ironbound," a proprietary mobile
fitness application for iOS and Android owned by Ironbound Fitness, Inc.

NATURE AND SCOPE

Ironbound is a substantial original software work developed privately since
approximately April 2026 over more than 1,100 commits in a private repository.
The copied material comprises 158 files, including:

- Approximately 44,400 lines of original JavaScript, JSX and TypeScript
application code, of which the principal application file (src/App.jsx)
alone is 26,728 lines;
- 30 SQL files defining the application's database schema, table structures
and access-control policies;
- Native integration components for iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin and
Java), including a custom health-data integration plugin;
- Serverless API functions handling the application's server-side logic;
- Application configuration, build configuration and packaging files.

Functionally, the work implements user account and profile management,
automated workout program generation, progression tracking, gym equipment
profiling, nutrition and meal planning, health-data integration, and
integrations with third-party services.

PUBLICATION STATUS

The source code is unpublished and commercially confidential. It has never been
released publicly, never open-sourced, and never licensed to any third party.
The only distribution of the application has been as a compiled binary to a
small closed group of beta testers; the source code itself has at no point been
made publicly available by Ironbound Fitness, Inc. or with its authorization.

The authentic repository is private, at
[private]. Because the work is unpublished
and proprietary, no public link to the original exists. I can provide access or
further verification to GitHub on request.

**If the original work referenced above is available online, please provide a URL.**

The original work is not available online. It is unpublished, proprietary source
code and has never been publicly released.

It is, however, hosted privately on [private], and [private] can verify it directly:

For comparison, the infringing files correspond byte-for-byte to commit
b5708a1e8f890b34a0d75d2618c1429a2e16f37b in that repository. I am happy to grant
GitHub staff read access to the private repository, or to provide any further
verification required.

Please clearly state that the entire repository is infringing, OR provide the specific files within the repository you would like removed.**
