    Your Solution to Online Piracy

ANTI PIRACY STARTS HERE

  • The better content you produce, the more it is pirated online with someone else profiting from your investment.

    How many times has it been said that piracy must be stopped, but then it all got lost in the debates between policy makers, law enforcement and legal professionals?

    FINALLY YOU HAVE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE

    You may find it hard to believe but there is a solution to a global piracy problem!



OVERVIEW

  • Can it be done Internally

    Of course it can. However, it would require a significant investment in IT and employing a group of multilingual experts to run the operation 24/7. And proper training, equipment and leadership. On the other hand, outsourcing anti-piracy to us provides you with the best possible solution for a fraction of the cost. We will deal with the piracy, while you focus on running your business.

  • Piracy is Larger Than You Think

    Over 300 million people in the developed countries regularly access pirated audiovisual content. Other industries are no exceptions. Computer games, software, music and ebooks are all being distributed illegally. Creative companies are losing a money especially in the rich markets, where buyers switch to free alternative. As of 2014, there were 170 million illegal viewers in Europe alone and this number keeps growing.

  • Why Lawyers and Law Enforcement Fail

    Torrents, being a long time focus of the industry and the authorities, are a thing of the past. The use of P2P networks has been declining for years while streaming websites and cloud storages are on the rise. From the legal point of view, users using such sources are not breaking the law. However, they do hurt your wallet. Same goes to your legal bills and fees for just another, purely informative report on global piracy, discussing outdated trends such as torrents.

  • Stop Believing in Fairytales

    Let's face it, whilst hoping for a never-coming miraculous legislative change you're losing money every day. So called experts are trying to sell you various theories. Perhaps, at some point they may have made you believe that piracy was a good marketing tool and even generated publicity. But whatever they told you, deep inside you knew - THEFT IS ALWAYS A LOSS.

  • Can Piracy Really be Fought

    Yes it can! Our IT solution effectively responds to all kinds of online piracy. As of now we can remove more than 95% instances of your pirated material from the web almost instantly and we can keep it down by tracking its reappearances. Contact us to know more.

  • Is it Legal to Remove Copyrighted Content from the Internet

    Every content owner or its authorised agent is eliglible for sending Takedown Notices based on EU Copyright Directive or DMCA to administrators or ISPs or the servers that infringe its copyrights. The clou is to detect all instances of illegal content, and to send notices quicker than the content is being reuploaded. It sometimes means even a few thousand notices per title per day. Don't even start if you think of doing it manually.

  • Piracy became a lifestyle choice of many users

    A distinct change in attitude to piracy has taken place. Stealing someone’s work is no longer perceived as a crime. Instead, content theft became socially acceptable and pirates are seen as modern heroes, providing free content to the masses, while users find new ways to justify their behaviour. Surprisingly, this shift in mentality is supported by many journalists and NGOs.

  • Try it Yourself

    Don't hesitate to make the first step. We'll provide you with a FREE report on illegal distribution of your content and a FREE trial of our anti-piracy solution. Before you ask, there are no hidden costs nor dodgy paragraphs written in small-print. We want you to see and experience anti-piracy hands on.

  • Pirates Exploit Legal Loopholes

    Safe Harbour provisions grant website operators immunity from copyright liability stemming from storing and transmitting infringing material. If you don't take steps yourself, your content will remain available for free. From a legal standpoint, until correctly notified, people and institutions that distribute your content without authorisation aren't even 'pirates'.

  • "It's called piracy cancer... and it's fatal at the moment"

    John Jarrat, Actor

  • "You wouldn't steal a handbag, you wouldn't steal a car, you wouldn't steal a baby, you wouldn't shoot a policeman and then steal his helmet. You wouldn't go to the toilet in his helmet, and then send it to the policeman's grieving widow and then steal it again! Downloading films is stealing, if you do it you WILL face the consequences."

    Anti-Piracy DVD Warning, IT Crowd

  • "You wouldn't download a car"

    Anonymous

  • “If you create something and then someone takes it without your permission, that is stealing. It may sound harsh, but it is true.”

    Mary J Blige

  • “One of the many aspects of this issue that is so troubling, is the cavalier fashion in which so many approach it, as if it just isn't serious business. It is of course…It’s theft, plain and simple; and we need to do all that we can to see that it stops!”

    Richard Carpenter

  • We'll steal your files and steal your bits, upload them to pirate ships, then hoist anchor and sail away to the fabled pirate bay"

  • “But the main thing is that a whole generation already violates copyright, and the only thing we can do now is find better solutions”

HOW IT WORKS

Tracking

We monitor search engines, cyber-lockers, streaming websites, torrents, social media platforms and lots of others. We delete infringing content and links leading to it within 2 to 24 hours and keep the level of pirated content down by tracking all the reappearances. Our solution effectively protects films, games, software, music and all kinds of live content.

Enforcement

Active solutions to combat piracy including measures to prevent piracy such as automated process of issuing cease and delist notices and removing infringing links leading to illegal sources of content from search engines. Large quantities of pirated content are quickly removed through our instant technology embedded with many leading sites. This causes a severe disruption for viewers using illegal sources. By adversely affecting the illegal viewer experience we promote accessing content via legal channels.

Reporting

In addition to clearing the web from the illegal content and links that lead to it, we also provide detailed reports on removals and the protection success rate. We capture metadata, such as for example the number of illegal downloads/streams, to allow the customer to understand the scale of the illegal viewing market. We continuously liaise with the content owners to discuss campaign highlights. Our technology enables content owners to make measurable piracy a part of their everyday reports.
