Frequently asked questions
What is a DMCA notice?
It is a formal request asking a website or platform to remove content that infringes your copyright, under the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act. Because Google, YouTube, Meta, X, TikTok and most hosting companies follow this law, the notice works for copied content worldwide.
What must the notice include?
Six elements: your signature (physical or electronic), identification of the original work, the exact links to the copied material, your contact details, a good-faith statement that the use was not authorized, and a statement under penalty of perjury that the information is accurate and that you are the owner or authorized to act for them. The panel shows which ones are filled in.
Where do I send it?
Big platforms use their own forms: the tool shows the official link and you paste the generated text. For a regular website, send it to the hosting company's abuse email, listed in the domain's WHOIS, or to the site's copyright contact.
Can I send a notice about any content?
Only content that is yours (or that you represent) and was used without permission. False notices, or notices about permitted use such as quotation, criticism or parody, can create legal liability. If in doubt, talk to a lawyer.
