Before submitting, gather the suspected URL, your original image or publication reference, any stock-platform record, licence information, screenshots and the date on which you discovered the use.
You may also write directly to contact@atlantic-image-defense.com for general inquiries, or to copyright@atlantic-image-defense.com for copyright-related matters, image ownership claims, unauthorized use reports, or rights verification requests.
The intake form establishes the information required for initial authority, protected-work, evidence and conflict review before the matter is classified for case administration.
Provide accurate identity and contact information, relationship to the work and authority to act. Representatives should identify the rightsholder and provide the mandate, assignment, agency or estate record where applicable.
Pseudonyms and professional names can be recorded, but the underlying authority may still require confidential verification.
Provide the original or best available source, internal or platform identifiers, creation or first-publication information, contributor records, registrations if any and known licensing history.
Do not alter metadata or manufacture documentation to strengthen a submission.
Provide the full URL, discovery date, visible context, screenshots and an explanation of why the use appears outside known authorization. Identify uncertainty, prior contacts and any urgent risk of disappearance.
Multiple unrelated URLs should be organized rather than pasted without explanation.
The submitted record is reviewed for authority, completeness, conflicts, evidence quality and scope before the matter is accepted, returned for additional documentation or otherwise classified.
Consequential external communication follows the required documented human approval.
These links point to official or institutional sources. Their inclusion does not mean that every text applies to every matter.
