Frequently asked questions.

What is DMCA?

The DMCA, or Digital Millennium Copyright Act, is a U.S. copyright law that provides legal protection for digital content and intellectual property. It includes provisions related to online service provider liability, copyright management, and the rights of copyright owners. One of its key components is the ability for copyright owners to submit DMCA takedown notices to have their copyrighted content removed from websites and online platforms where it's being used without permission. However, it's worth noting that not all foreign countries have equivalent laws or may not strictly enforce similar regulations.

What is copyright infringement?

Copyright infringement occurs when someone uses, copies, or distributes copyrighted material without the permission of the copyright holder. It violates the exclusive rights of the copyright owner, such as the right to reproduce, distribute, or display the work.

What is Fair Use?

The fair use doctrine is a provision in copyright law that allows limited use of copyrighted material without the copyright owner's permission. It typically applies for purposes such as commentary, criticism, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, or research. However, determining fair use can be complex and depends on specific circumstances.

How do I know if something is copyright infringement or falls under Fair Use?

Determining whether something is copyright infringement or falls under fair use often requires a case-by-case analysis. Factors include the purpose and character of the use, the nature of the copyrighted work, the amount used, and the effect on the market value of the copyrighted material. If you are a content creator that sells private content and have your original works distributed online without permission, your exclusive copyright is being violated.

I am a social media content creator and people are uploading my work online without permission. What can I do?

If your content is being shared online without your authorization, you can take legal action to protect your copyright. This may involve sending cease and desist letters, preparing DMCA takedown notices, or pursuing legal action against the infringing parties. Hiring an attorney or lawyer for leaked content can be extremely expensive and time consuming, and may not be as effective for active content creators on social media.

I am an OnlyFans creator and people are posting my content online. How can I take it down?

By preparing and submitting DMCA notices on behalf of our clients, we remove as much of your leaked content on Google as possible. Whether you are an OnlyFans, Playboy, Patreon, Fansly, Instagram, X (formerly Twitter) creator and similar subscription-based platforms, we have your privacy covered.

Why is this a subscription service?

We offer a subscription service for copyright protection to ensure your content remains private. The more active you are as a creator, the more people online will replicate your work without legal authorization. The continuation of our monthly services allow us to repeatedly take down both new and resurfacing leaked content.

How do I know that DMCA Plug is taking down my leaked content from Google and other sites?

We provide updates regarding the live status of all infringing URLs we process for removal on your behalf. Your satisfaction is our priority.

Why should I choose DMCA Plug's copyright protection services over another?

Unlike other online services, we will take down as many copyright infringements as humanly possible. Other sites may offer "AI" or "bots" to protect your copyrighted works, but as you see from Google Search Results and Google Images alone, these methods are not efficient nor honest. You will find your work still being scattered throughout the internet, remnants located around every corner. Being a premium service, we also maintain a limited clientele to personally offer you the best results. No client of ours will go unnoticed.
