DMCA takedown notice generator
Found your content somewhere you didn't put it? Fill this in and get a complete takedown notice, plus the text for Google's and Bing's removal forms. No login, no email, and nothing you type leaves your browser.
Your notice
Send it to the site's DMCA agent. Most sites list one; if not, search the US Copyright Office directory.
Fill in the form to build your notice.
Remove it from search too
Paste this into Google's removal form and Bing's. Delisting cuts off the traffic even while a host drags its feet.
Fill in the form to build the search-removal text.
How the process works, and when a paid service earns its fee, is in my DIY DMCA guide. The law itself is 17 U.S.C. §512. I'm still not a lawyer.
Frequently asked
- Where do I send the notice?
- To the site's designated DMCA agent. Most sites list a DMCA or copyright contact, and the US Copyright Office keeps a public directory of agents.
- Will the uploader see my name?
- Possibly. Sites often forward notices to the uploader, and some notices end up in public takedown databases, so use contact details you're comfortable sharing. I'm not a lawyer, so check what your situation requires.
- Is anything I type sent or saved?
- No. The generator runs entirely in your browser and stores nothing. Refreshing the page clears the form.
