Discovering that your live cam shows have been recorded and uploaded to Archivebate without your consent is a violation of your privacy and your income. Those intimate moments you shared live are now permanently archived for anyone to watch.
The good news is you can fight back. This guide walks you through exactly how to get your recorded streams removed from Archivebate.
What Is Archivebate
Archivebate is a site that records and hosts cam shows from platforms like Chaturbate, Stripchat, BongaCams, and others. While you are streaming live, their system captures your show and uploads it as a permanent recording.
This means your private shows, tip-activated content, and intimate moments become publicly available forever. People who never paid to watch you live can now view your content for free, any time they want.
The impact goes beyond lost income. These recordings often rank in Google searches for your stage name, making them easy to find. But you have legal rights to get them removed.
The Fast Way: Let Leakless Handle It
If you want your recordings removed without the hassle, Leakless.io monitors sites like Archivebate and handles takedowns automatically. We specialize in protecting cam models and know exactly how to get recordings removed quickly.
Our system scans over 50 million websites around the clock, including Archivebate and similar recording sites. When your content appears, we file takedowns immediately and handle all the follow-ups.
You can try it free for 3 days. But if you prefer to handle things yourself, here are your options.
DIY Option 1: Contact Archivebate Directly
Your first option is to send a DMCA takedown notice directly to Archivebate. Look for their DMCA or contact page on the site.
Your notice should include:
- Your name and contact information
- The exact URLs of your recorded streams
- Your cam platform profile link as proof of ownership
- A statement that you own the copyright to this content
Response times are inconsistent. Some models get results within days, others wait weeks or hear nothing. If this does not work, try option two.
DIY Option 2: Contact Their Hosting Provider
If Archivebate does not respond, go over their head. Every website relies on a hosting provider, and those providers are legally required to act on valid DMCA notices.
Use a WHOIS lookup tool like lookup.icann.org to find who hosts the site. Enter the website URL and look for the hosting company information. Then visit that company's website and find their abuse or DMCA contact.
Hosting providers usually respond faster than the sites themselves. They face legal liability for ignoring valid takedown requests, so they take them seriously.
DIY Option 3: Remove It From Google Search
Even if Archivebate ignores you, you can still remove your recordings from Google search results. This is called delisting. It means people searching for your stage name will not find the Archivebate page.
Google has a dedicated DMCA request form. Submit the URLs of your recorded streams along with your cam platform profile as proof of ownership. Google typically processes these requests within one to two weeks.
The recording will still exist on Archivebate, but it becomes much harder to find. Most people discover these recordings through search engines, so delisting significantly limits the damage.
What to Expect
Here are realistic timelines for each approach:
- Direct takedown requests: A few days to several weeks, if they respond at all
- Hosting provider requests: Usually one to two weeks
- Google delisting: Typically one to two weeks
Keep in mind that every time you stream, your show could be recorded again. Removing one recording does not prevent future ones. This is why ongoing monitoring is so important, whether you check manually or use a service like Leakless that does it automatically.
Protect Your Shows
Your live streams are your work, and you have every right to control where they appear. Whether you handle takedowns yourself or let Leakless do it for you, the important thing is to act quickly. The longer recordings stay up, the more they spread.
Archivebate is not going away, but you do not have to accept your shows being stolen. Start protecting your content today.
