DMCA Requests

At Search Engines Daily (SED), we respect the intellectual property rights of others and expect our contributors and users to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and other applicable laws, we have adopted a policy of expeditiously responding to clear notices of alleged copyright infringement.

If you believe that your copyrighted work has been copied or used on our website in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please submit a formal takedown request following the guidelines below.

How to Submit a DMCA Takedown Notice

1. Your Signature: A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf.
