Copyright & takedown

Effective September 9, 2026 · Version 1.0

Photographs on Findpic are uploaded by the photographers who made them, and they keep the copyright in their work. If you believe a photograph here is yours and was published without your permission, tell us and we will act on it.

1. Sending us a notice

Email info@findpic.co with the subject line Copyright notice. So that we can act without coming back to you, include all of the following:

Your signature, typed or written — as the copyright owner or someone authorised to act for them.
The work you say has been infringed. If several, list them.
A link to the photograph on Findpic, so we can find the exact file. Open it and copy the address from your browser.
How to reach you — name, address, email, and a phone number if you have one.
A statement that you believe in good faith the use was not authorised by you, your agent, or the law.
A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorised to act for them.

Please send a notice only about work you genuinely own. Misrepresenting infringement carries liability for damages under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), and a photograph removed wrongly is somebody’s livelihood taken offline.

Copy this, fill it in, send it

2. What we do with it

We act on complete notices promptly. We remove or disable access to the photograph, tell the photographer who uploaded it what was removed and why, and pass on your notice so they can respond. We will tell you when it is done.

3. If your photograph was removed and you think we got it wrong

Photographers can dispute a removal by sending a counter-notice to the same address. It needs your signature, the photograph that was removed and where it was, a statement under penalty of perjury that you believe in good faith it was removed through mistake or misidentification, and your name, address and telephone number, along with your consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your address — or, if you are outside the United States, for any district where we may be found.

We pass a valid counter-notice to whoever sent the original notice. If they do not tell us within ten business days that they have gone to court, we may restore the photograph.

4. Repeat infringers

Photographers are on Findpic by invitation, and an account that repeatedly infringes other people’s copyright will be closed.

5. “That’s me in the photograph” is a different request

This page is for the person who made a photograph. If you are the person in one and you want it taken down, none of the above applies to you — no notice, no account, no explanation. Just email info@findpic.co, or see our FAQ and our Privacy & Biometric Notice.
