What is a DMCA Notice?

1 min read

A DMCA notice is a legal request to remove copyrighted content that has been shared without permission. It's one of the most effective tools for getting your leaked content taken down.

What Does DMCA Stand For?

DMCA stands for the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, a U.S. law that protects copyright holders online. It requires websites to remove infringing content when they receive a valid takedown notice.

How Does It Work?

When we find your content on an unauthorized site, we send a DMCA notice to:

  • The website hosting the content
  • Their web hosting provider
  • Search engines (to remove it from search results)

Most legitimate platforms are legally required to comply with DMCA notices, making this an effective way to get your content removed.

We handle the entire DMCA process on your behalf:

  • Scan and detect your leaked content
  • Prepare legally compliant DMCA notices
  • Send notices to all relevant parties
  • Follow up until the content is removed
