Notices that meet the formal requirements
Complete, correctly addressed notices with the statements and evidence platforms require, so they don't bounce.
When your photography, video, course material, product images or website copy is taken and republished, a correctly drafted takedown notice is the fastest route to removing it. We prepare and lodge notices with platforms, hosting providers, CDNs and search engines, and follow through when the first notice is ignored.
Platform takedowns frequently resolve in 2–10 business days; host and search de-indexing requests vary with the provider.
Complete, correctly addressed notices with the statements and evidence platforms require, so they don't bounce.
Platform, host, registrar, CDN and search engine — pursued in parallel where the infringer is uncooperative.
We build the proof pack from your originals, licences and publication history.
Clear explanation of what happens next and when a matter needs a lawyer rather than another notice.
Copyright takedown work covers far more than pirated video. These are the cases we see most often from Australian businesses and creators.
Product shots, brand photography and video used without licence on competitor sites, marketplaces and social accounts.
Entire sites duplicated to run scams or to compete on your own copy. These need notices to the host, the registrar, the CDN and the search engines simultaneously.
Paid material redistributed on file-sharing sites, private groups and marketplaces.
Your video re-uploaded on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram or Facebook, often monetised by someone else.
Where the host will not act, the copy can still be removed from search results, which is where most of the actual harm occurs.
We start by verifying ownership and documenting the infringement — original files, publication dates, licences and archived copies of the infringing page. That evidence pack is what makes a notice actionable rather than ignorable.
We then identify the correct recipient. Platform notices go through each platform's copyright agent; independent websites require the hosting provider, and often the registrar or CDN as well. Notices are drafted to include every element the law requires, because incomplete notices are the most common reason a takedown is refused.
If a counter-notice is filed, we explain your options clearly, including the timeframes involved and where escalation stops being a platform matter and becomes a legal one.
The DMCA is United States law, but it governs most of the platforms and hosts Australian businesses deal with, which is why it remains the practical mechanism here. Australian copyright law protects your work domestically and supports parallel action against local infringers.
We are a specialist assistance service, not a law firm, and we don't provide legal advice or representation. Where a matter genuinely needs a lawyer — repeat commercial infringement, damages, or a contested counter-notice — we'll tell you plainly rather than filing notices that can't resolve it.
Free, confidential assessment with a straight answer about what's achievable — usually within one business day. You only pay if we get the result.
