If content is shared without permission, you need time to address the case without taking over every conversation. With Unly, replies and sales from your authorized catalog run autonomously, without chatters or approval of each message. You can focus on evidence and requests that require your involvement.
Save the exact address, context and original-file reference before acting. Prepare a concise file for the website, a professional or partner options Unly support may suggest. The agent handles commercial conversations while you organize the response to unauthorized distribution.
Document the content before sending a request
Record the page URL, the file URL if accessible, the site name and the date you found it. Keep a screenshot showing the content in context. Add the reference for your original file and the material needed to explain your rights over that content.
Keep this evidence in a restricted folder. Do not republish the media publicly to prove it belongs to you. If other people appear, notify them privately and coordinate the response without exposing their identities or verification documents in an open group.
Explain the basis for the request
Buying content does not, by itself, authorize unrestricted republication. The French INPI explains that original works receive copyright protection when created. Keep originals and the relevant agreements, especially when a photographer or another creator was involved in production.
Image rights and copyright address different questions. Identify the issue that applies: unauthorized copying, use of your likeness, impersonation or threats. For a disputed or sensitive case, ask a qualified professional to identify the appropriate basis and jurisdiction for the request.
Contact the service hosting the copy
Prepare requests in a dedicated work session while Unly handles conversations and sales. A tracking sheet avoids checking the same pages repeatedly: each request should identify a specific hosting location and have a reference you can retrieve.
Find the site’s official reporting, copyright or legal contact channel. French Service Public guidance on illegal online content explains the information needed for a notification, including a clear description, precise location, grounds for the report and the required reporting details.
- The affected URLs, one per line.
- A factual description of the media and unauthorized use.
- The basis for the request and relevant supporting material.
- A business address for receiving the reply.
- The submission date and case reference.
Send only the documents required through the official channel. If someone handles the requests for you, confirm their authorization, which websites they cover and how results will be recorded. A general promise to erase content everywhere is not a defined scope of work.
Track hosting and search results separately
Removing a Google result does not remove the hosted media. The Google guidance separates routes according to the content and points to copyright requests. For commercial content, check which route applies; personal intimate-content removal is not automatically available in every case.
Track these requests separately. One page may disappear while another copy remains, or an outdated result may still appear after removal. Record what you actually checked instead of closing the whole case after a single response.
Keep a case log and a clear commercial routine
Use a simple log: URL, date, recipient, case reference, response and next check. Add new copies to the same case, each with its own address. If threats or blackmail are involved, retain the messages and seek suitable assistance from the authorities or a professional.
Unly support can explain partner options available for your protection needs. Ask which websites are covered, whether the work targets the source and how progress is shared. Meanwhile, the agent sells authorized catalog media without a chatter team. Follow the case and prepare the next collection without maintaining every conversation yourself.
