What should I provide to remove stolen adult or pornographic content?
Three main pieces of information are needed to get started filing a DMCA Takedown Notice:
1. Infringing URL
Where on the internet (or platform like Facebook or TikTok) is your stolen content located? What is the link that you want the content removed from? Be sure to 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 URL
Where was your content located when it was stolen? Was it on you social media profile like Facebook or Reddit? Was it from your own website? Provide the exact URL where it was stolen from, even if the content has already been removed from it's 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 expalanation 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
What is the content owner's name and how was the content stolen? How is this content yours? How do you own it? 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."

DMCA Fast Tip
DMCA.com can help you locate copies of your photos or videos for takedown. When completing your takedown notice form on the site make sure and request a quote for this service if you are interested.
First steps to remove stolen adult or pornographic content:
- Find as many copies (URL's) and versions of the content as you can. It can be a tough and difficult process but you are the best person to identify this content. Often the image will be cropped or altered in some way so often you can identify it the quickest. Make a list. Like a weed if you can get at the source, you can stop it from spreading. Often only one website was the source of the uploaded content. It is important to get it removed from there and move on to the other sites, if there are any.
- Do not assume that once your photo or video is off one (Facebook) page the issue is resolved. It could have been copied and uploaded somewhere else. The longer the content has been up the more likely it has spread to other networks and websites.
- Do not become a victim of extortion! Do not send money or a photo of your ID to hosting companies or website owners in order to get your content removed. This is a serious act of privacy violation and not required within any takedown process, anywhere. If you must pay to have your image taken offline it is extortion or a bribe under most laws. If you must pay or follow some other bizarre process to have your content taken offline do so with a lawyer, inform the police and where possible, have an internet specialist with you.
- Begin Processing (DMCA) Takedowns immediately! The faster the better. Do it now! Staying on top of getting your content taken down means you can stop or slow the spread of the stolen adult content.
- You can conduct takedowns yourself if you are internet savvy (DMCA.com has a very inexpensive DIY Program)
- Use a lawyer or
- Use a service like DMCA.com's Professional Takedown Service.
- Regardless of the method you use, the quicker the better. Processing takedown can also help any legal action you have started or will start later. If you choose to conduct the process yourself here are a few important tips:
- Follow the (DMCA) Takedown process of website where you have found the stolen adult content exactly. If the website has its own policy follow that.
- Do not be emotional in your description or request for removal
- Do not tell a story or give background or incident details
- Clearly the state facts related to the content usage - it's your content, or you are in it and you did not give permission to be used in this manner or you own the copyright.
- Stop the source. Find out where the content came from and make sure no more theft can occur. If the images are on your email, mobile, camera, laptop etc. make sure to remove access to the internet. If someone has gained access to your mobile or cell phone, email, computer files, GoPro, camera or iCloud storage and published your content on the internet change your passwords and remove the content.
DMCA Takedown Testimonial
I am writing this testimonial praising DMCA.com for their expedient removal of a picture that was on a very horrid site. I just want to tell young women and young men that DMCA is an "official" site that can be trusted for those of you who have been violated by cyber bullying, lies being told about you and/or just plain "get even" scandals. DMCA is very affordable for everyone. We need more people like DMCA to make a difference in this awful world we live in today with the internet. Thank you DMCA.com. -LW
