What is DMCA/User-submitted content?

  • Last updated on April 6, 2022 at 9:24 AM

Pixsy may have identified that a domain is unsubmittable as a case because it is hosting DMCA/user- submitted content. 

This means that the host of the website is protected by law (Digital Millenium Copyright Act, 1998) from prosecution for copyright infringements from material uploaded by their users. They are however required to respond to a takedown notice served by the copyright owner. 

Pixsy is unable to pursue cases against domains protected by the DMCA.
