Report copyright or intellectual-property infringement

The structured report form below is the preferred way to submit an intellectual-property complaint because it helps us collect the information needed to assess the report. Legal correspondence may also be sent to legal@secondpass.net.

In accordance with Section 25 of our Copyright Policy, creators, rightsholders, and authorised representatives do not need a SecondPass account to submit a report or protect their creative work.
