Content on Scribd.com and SlideShare.net (collectively, "Scribd") is provided by our members without pre-approval by Scribd. We take intellectual property rights very seriously and comply as a service provider with all applicable provisions of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) of 1998. We expeditiously remove infringing material when notified and we also terminate repeat infringers pursuant to a "three-strikes" policy. Since Scribd is based in the United States, a completed DMCA notification is the minimum that Scribd can accept as proof-of-copyright, even if your country operates under different laws. Scribd cannot process notifications that disregard DMCA criteria and provide incomplete information.
Use this form to report when someone has posted your, or your client's, copyrighted content to Scribd, SlideShare, or other Scribd properties without permission. This form captures all the required information and notifies us immediately. Your information will not be used for any other purpose. Valid notifications are typically processed within two business days.
Only a copyright owner or someone authorized to act on a copyright owner’s behalf may use this form to report infringements. If you suspect that another person’s work has been posted without permission, please contact the author or publisher directly. Many publishers provide special forms or email addresses on their websites for readers concerned about possible infringements.
Please be sure that the reported content is not posted by your publisher, agency, or another third party operating under a license agreement. If you are the author of content posted to Scribd by your publisher, your removal request may be rejected.
Your removal request must include direct links to the items that fall under your claim. Scribd is not able to process notifications that reference search results. Incomplete notifications will be returned to you for completion.
Under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing may be subject to liability. Misuse of the DMCA form may result in termination of your Scribd account and possible legal action.
