Instructor Guidelines for Reporting Copyright Violations on Other Platforms (China)

This article explains the options available to you if someone has pirated and posted your content on a platform based in China. 

• Review options available to you if you find that someone has pirated and posted your course on another platform, outside of China.

While our Piracy Detection Program has been able to successfully delist more than 98% of infringing piracy URLs, our anti-piracy vendor may not be delisting URLS from major Chinese search engines. 

As such, for a quicker resolution and more hands on approach, copyright owners should directly report to the platform or search engine where the infringing activity is occurring. Learn how to report pirate sites through our third-party, anti-piracy vendor. 

Please note, if you choose to use our anti-piracy vendor, we are unable to provide status updates after submission of the form.

Submitting a Takedown Notification on Other Platforms

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) is a United States federal law that established standards and procedures for copyright owners to submit notices to platforms hosting third party content. If a platform did not wish to be held liable for copyright infringement because a user posted copyright protected content, then it had to abide by the procedures within the DMCA, such as responding to DMCA notices. As the DMCA is a United States law it does not apply to China. 

While the DMCA does not apply in China, China did enact its own version in the 2000s. As such, most popular websites in China do have dedicated legal processes and support pages for reporting copyright infringement.

Submitting a request to delist content from major search engines

Copyright owners typically have difficulty getting their copyright protected content removed from torrent and pirate sites. If you find your copyright protected content on a platform that fails to comply or respond to a copyright infringement notice, you may wish to instead file a request with major search engines to delist the link. Delisting a link does not remove the content, but it does make it harder for someone to potentially find and download a pirated version of your course.

关于在其他平台上举报版权侵权行为的讲师指南（中国）

本文介绍了当有人在位于中国的平台上侵犯您的版权及发布您的内容时，您拥有哪些选择。 

• 回顾当您发现有人在中国境外的其他平台上侵犯您的版权及发布您的课程时，您拥有的选择。

虽然我们的盗版检测计划能够成功剔除超过 98% 的侵权 URL，但我们的反盗版供应商可能未从中国各大搜索引擎中剔除相关 URL。 

因此，要更快地解决问题并采取更加贴近现实的方法，版权所有人应直接向发生侵权活动的平台或搜索引擎举报。了解如何通过我们的第三方反盗版供应商举报盗版网址。 

请注意，如果您选择使用我们的反盗版供应商，您提交表格后，我们无法提供状态更新。

在其他平台上提交删除通知

《数字千年版权法案》(DMCA) 这部美国联邦法律确立了版权所有人向托管第三方内容的平台提交声明的标准和程序。如果平台不希望因用户发布受版权保护的内容而为版权侵权承担责任，则其必须遵守 DMCA 中的程序，例如对 DMCA 声明作出响应。由于 DMCA 是美国法律，因此它不适用于中国。 

虽然 DMCA 在中国并不适用，但中国于 21 世纪前十年颁布了自己的数字版权法律。因此，中国的多数知名网站都设有用于举报版权侵权行为的专门法律流程和支持页面。 

以下是各平台有关版权侵权的链接：

提交从各大搜索引擎剔除相关内容的请求

版权所有人通常很难从种子和盗版网站移除其受版权保护的内容。如果您发现某一平台上有您受版权保护的内容，且该平台未遵守版权侵权声明或未对该等声明作出响应，您可能希望向各大搜索引擎提交剔除相关链接的请求。剔除某一链接并不能移除相关内容，但这确实会使人更难找到并下载您课程的盗版版本。
