How do I get a claimant to withdraw their DMCA takedown notice?

If you believe that the claimant has mistakenly filed the notice, you may contact them directly and ask them to withdraw their takedown notice. If the claimant decides to withdraw the notice, you must provide us with proof (e.g., an email from the claimant confirming this).

If we are satisfied that the claimant has actually withdrawn its copyright notice, we will restore the video and remove the copyright strike associated with it.

When should I ask a copyright holder to withdraw a notice?

We cannot provide advice on this. We encourage you to speak to an attorney about your options.
