Build a safe copyright evidence record before reporting

A stronger claim distinguishes your original work, the suspected copied URL, who owns the work, and why you can submit a notice. Collect enough evidence to identify the work without unnecessarily spreading sensitive material.

What to do

  1. List your original work titles, publication dates and the creator or entity holding the relevant copyright.
  2. Keep the exact URLs where the suspected unauthorized copies are currently accessible.
  3. Record the visible uploader, date and context without downloading additional copies of intimate content unnecessarily.
  4. Keep evidence of licensing terms or collaboration agreements when ownership is shared or disputed.
  5. Identify the intended reporting mechanism: the website's copyright process or a separate privacy/NCII pathway.
  6. Save a private copy of each submission reference and any reply, with dates.
  7. When a response arrives, assess what it actually confirms: submitted, acknowledged, source unavailable or independently verified removal.
A report is not necessarily justified by similarity alone; licensing, consent, authorship and exceptions can affect rights.

Common questions

Does submitting a report guarantee removal?

No. Each platform assesses its own policies, and a submitted report is not proof of removal.

Should I send the intimate file to Reclaim to start?

No. Begin with the public link when possible and avoid sharing unnecessary copies of sensitive media.

Use a coordinated case

Reclaim keeps website removal, Google/search removal, deadlines, verification and monitoring separate so one successful step is not mistaken for complete removal.
