Not Satisfied with Takedown Results? Explore Your Options with PimEyes

In today’s digital world, protecting your online presence is more important than ever. Whether you’re dealing with unauthorised use of your photos or privacy concerns, PimEyes offers a robust solution for managing takedown requests. If your initial takedown request hasn’t yielded the desired results, don’t worry – you have several options to strengthen your case and achieve a successful outcome.

Request a New Takedown with a Different Reason (DMCA/GDPR)

If your first takedown request was denied or ignored, consider submitting a new request with a different legal basis. Depending on your location and the nature of the content, you can leverage the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) for copyright infringement or the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for privacy violations. Each of these legal frameworks has specific requirements and can increase the chances of a successful takedown.

Strengthen Your Request with Detailed Infringement Information

Providing detailed and specific information about the infringement can significantly strengthen your takedown request. Include the following:

• Personal details
• Direct URLs of the infringing content.
• Screenshots showing the unauthorised use.
• Timestamped evidence of when the content was discovered.
• Detailed description of how the content violates your rights.

The more precise and thorough your request, the harder it is for the offending party to ignore it.

Report the Website to Be Deindexed from Google Search

⦿ If the takedown request is unsuccessful and the content remains online, you can report the website to Google to have it deindexed from search results. This reduces the visibility of the infringing content and can often prompt website owners to take down the content themselves. To do this, use Google’s Remove Outdated Content** tool or file a legal removal request directly with Google.

Take the Case to Court Using Our Report with the History of the Takedown Request Processing

In an ideal world, takedown requests would be promptly honored, and unauthorised content would be swiftly removed. However, there are instances when these requests are ignored or disputed. In such cases, taking legal action may be necessary.

PimEyes provides detailed reports that include the history of your takedown request processing. These reports can be invaluable in court, demonstrating the efforts you’ve made to resolve the issue through other means. Legal action is a more time-consuming and costly option, but it can result in a definitive resolution, including potential damages for the unauthorised use of your content.

If you have a unique case or need legal advice, consider chatting with our Takedown Support Agent. They can delve deeper into your case and assist with a personalised course of action. This added support can make a significant difference in effectively managing complex or stubborn cases.
