Takedowns & Removal

What If a Takedown Doesn't Work?

Steps we take when a site doesn't comply with the DMCA notice.

Not all takedown requests are successful on the first attempt. Here's our escalation process:

  1. Re-submit: We send a follow-up notice with additional documentation.
  2. Hosting provider: If the site operator doesn't respond, we contact their hosting provider.
  3. Domain registrar: For persistent offenders, we report to the domain registrar.
  4. Search engine delisting: We get the URL removed from Google and Bing search results.
