How to submit a content takedown case

Steps to take to create a new content takedown case with an organization using Clym's content takedown solution

In the evolving age of the internet, content posted on websites must prioritize both privacy and compliance with copyright laws. Around the world, various regulations have created frameworks to ensure these standards are upheld. In the United States, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) outlines the procedures for requesting the removal of copyrighted content. Meanwhile, the EU E-Commerce Directive provides a framework for addressing illegal content.

If you find that an organization uses content on its website that violates an existing regulation, you may submit a case to an organization to remove the content in question.

Submitting a new content takedown case is an easy 3-step process:

 

 

 

 

1. Access the Compliance Center
