What if I have multiple DMCA Takedowns?

What do I need to provide to do multiple DMCA Takedowns?

To get started, here's what you will need:

1. Infringing URLs - links that you want removed

These questions will help you provide the needed information: What is the link that you want your stolen content removed from? Where on the internet (or platform like YouTube or Pinterest) is your stolen content located? Make certain you provide the URL or website/webpage link of the content you want removed. If the stolen content is an image or video located on a website provide the direct link of the content contained in the site. Copy and paste the infringing text, or provide the URL of the infringing image if required.

An example link would look like: https://www.badguy_site.com/webpage/image_2

2. Source URLs - links from which the content was stolen

Answering these questions will help: Where was your original content located when it was stolen? Was it on your social media profile or was it from your own website? Provide the exact URL where it was stolen from, even if the content has already been removed from its original location. The original URL is still valuable to the notice. If it was not online you can reference cell phone, computer, or camera etc. If it was online such as a website or cloud storage provide the link to the exact page it was stolen from. You can upload the original content to a cloud storage service and provide that URL with an explanation of where it was originally stolen from.

An example link would look like: https://share.icloud.com/photos/my_original_content

3. Description of Ownership - describe what happened

Answer these questions to describe the situation: How is this content yours? How do you own it? What is the content owner's name and how was the content stolen? Did you create it, buy it, copyright it? Who is claiming ownership of the content? Who is authorized to file the DMCA Takedown? When did you create the content and when was the content stolen?

An example description would sound like: "My photo I took of myself on my camera was stolen from my Google Drive and was posted on this website without my knowledge and I would like it removed."

Infringing content is removed from many different websites and platforms. Here is an example list where content is removed online:
