Before you send it

  • Find the right recipient. Platforms have dedicated IP forms, which are usually faster than email. Independent sites need the host's abuse contact; our guide on finding the host shows how.
  • Only claim what you own. The notice is made under penalty of perjury. Do not include licensed material, stock imagery or material where fair use is obvious.
  • Expect your details to be forwarded. The provider typically sends your notice, including your contact information, to the person who posted the content.
  • Keep a record. Save a copy, the date sent and screenshots of the infringing page in case of a counter-notice.
If you would rather have investigation, filing, follow-up and record-keeping handled for you, request a protection assessment. The generator is free either way.
