Copyright and image removal

Two different requests

The first is copyright: you took the photograph, or you own it, and it is published here without your permission. The second is consent: the photograph is of you, and you never agreed to it being published anywhere. They are handled differently, and the second is treated as the more urgent of the two.

A consent complaint does not wait for a review. Filing it suspends the listing at once, before anyone has read it. Use the report link on the listing itself, or write to [email protected] — either route works and neither requires you to explain yourself first.

Sending a copyright notice

Write to [email protected] with: the address of the page where the material appears, enough detail to identify which image is yours, where the original can be seen or how you can be shown to hold the rights, and how to reach you.

State that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorised, and that the information you are giving is accurate. An unsigned message from a working address is enough to start; nothing needs notarising.

What happens next

The material is taken down while the notice is looked at, not after. Restoring it requires the person who posted it to show they had the right to — the default is removal, not argument.

Repeated notices against the same listing end it. There is no threshold to reach and no appeal beyond the first exchange.

False notices

A takedown notice about someone else's photographs, sent to remove a competitor, is misuse of this process. Notices are kept, including the address they came from, and a pattern of them ends the correspondence.
