Helping Creators Protect Their Copyright
Who owns the content on the AnalOnlyFans platform?
Each Creator owns the content which they chose to post on AnalOnlyFans. Each Creator grants AnalOnlyFans a legal right to use the content on the platform by displaying the content to the Creator’s Fans.
Does AnalOnlyFans offer Creators any tools to help them to protect their content?
Yes. AnalOnlyFans provides a free digital "watermarking" service to all AnalOnlyFans Creators to help them to protect their content. A watermark is a light digital text placed on top of a Creator’s content. Watermarks make it harder for the original content to be copied or used without permission.
Creators can add a "watermark" to the content they post on AnalOnlyFans free of charge. Creators can customize their watermark in their "Privacy and Safety" settings to personalize their watermark. If you need help with this, you can reach out to our designated team using this link.
I’m a Creator and my content has been posted on another website without my permission. Can I get any help from AnalOnlyFans?
Yes. AnalOnlyFans supports Creators as you work to enforce your copyrights. You can report any copyright issues to AnalOnlyFans by clicking here and selecting "Reporting Stolen Content" and we will promptly investigate.
We have a dedicated team that issues formal "takedown" notices on behalf of AnalOnlyFans’ Creators under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) free of charge. If you live outside the USA, your content is still protected under international copyright laws.
We notify websites, hosting services, and domain registrars when content stolen from AnalOnlyFans’ Creators is on their platforms. We also notify all major search engines of these infringements.
I have reported stolen content to AnalOnlyFans, but the content has not been taken down from the other website(s). Why?
AnalOnlyFans supports our Creators, and we do our best to get any stolen content taken down quickly, but not all websites respect copyright laws or comply with our takedown requests. Creators should also reach out to the websites directly and request that their content be removed. Creators can also choose to independently pursue formal legal action against infringers.
What else does AnalOnlyFans do to help Creators protect their content?
AnalOnlyFans also proactively scans the internet on a regular basis to identify websites and hosting services which host large amounts of content stolen from AnalOnlyFans Creators.
Where appropriate, AnalOnlyFans contacts these companies and requests that content belonging to AnalOnlyFans’ Creators be taken down immediately. Some companies comply while others ignore takedown requests and continue to host stolen content.
I am a US-based Creator. Are there any other legal options I can use to pursue stolen content other than a DMCA Notice or a lawsuit?
Yes, from June 16, 2022 the CASE Act allows Creators seeking less than US$30,000 in compensation to file a claim with the Copyright Claims Board. Filing a claim is US$100. This allows Creators to take action against those who steal their content without hiring a lawyer or appearing in a courtroom. This is in addition to any efforts AnalOnlyFans will take if a copyright issue is reported.
I am a UK-based Creator. Are there any other legal options I can use to pursue stolen content other than a DMCA Notice or a lawsuit?
The English legal system allows Creators seeking to claim less than £10,000 in compensation to file a claim with the Intellectual Property and Enterprise Small Claims court. The costs of filing a claim are the same as the standard small claims court costs.
I am a EU-based Creator. Are there any other legal options I can use to pursue stolen content other than a DMCA Notice or a lawsuit?
The European Union has a small claims court that works across all European Union countries. This means that any Creator living within the European Union can make a cross-border claim using their local small claims court.
Soon, under the Digital Services Act, sites will be required to remove material from EU-based websites if a Creator reports the content is infringing on their copyrights or otherwise illegal.
