TakeItDown.art

GoDaddy provides hosting, CDN, or domain services to the infringing site. This is an escalation route: when the storefront and its host both ignore you, infrastructure providers are often the next pressure point.

The fastest route

• Use the report form: https://supportcenter.godaddy.com/ipclaims/copyright
• Fallback email: copyrightclaims@godaddy.com — this is GoDaddy's designated copyright contact on record.

Use for GoDaddy-hosted sites or domains. Put 'Copyright Claim' in the email subject.

What to include in your takedown

GoDaddy — like every DMCA recipient — needs the same core information to action a report. Include:

• Your full name and contact details (email, physical address if required).
• A link to your original work — your portfolio, the Instagram post, the date you published it. Proof of ownership matters.
• A short description of the work so the reviewer can match it.
• The exact URL(s) of the infringing listings or content on GoDaddy.
• A good-faith statement: "I have a good-faith belief that the use of this material is not authorised by me, my agent, or the law."
• A statement under penalty of perjury: "I confirm under penalty of perjury that the information above is accurate and that I am the copyright owner (or authorised to act on behalf of the owner)."
• Your electronic signature — your typed full name is fine.

Tip: TakeItDown.art's case builder generates a clean, properly-formatted message with all of this pre-filled — just paste your details once and copy the result.

How long does it take?

Infrastructure providers are slow (1–2+ weeks) because they pass complaints down the stack.

If GoDaddy ignores you

Infrastructure providers usually forward your complaint to the actual site owner. If the site still doesn't comply, escalate to payment processors and domain registrars.

This is not legal advice. TakeItDown.art is a workflow tool that helps copyright owners prepare and organise takedown requests. For serious or commercial infringement, consult a lawyer.
