How To Remove Content From Reddit?

Reddit is a massive online community where people connect over shared interests and experiences. For creators, it’s a powerful marketing tool to engage with fans in niche subreddits, grow their audience, and drive traffic to their platforms. However, because Reddit plays such a key role in content discovery, it’s crucial to ensure it’s not being used to promote piracy.

Unauthorized content can harm a creator’s brand and revenue, making it essential to take action through Reddit’s Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) takedown process.

How Long Do Reddit Removals Take?

Reddit is DMCA compliant & allows copyright owners to request the removal of content that’s being used without permission. If you submit a valid request, Reddit will review it and take down the infringing content. While removal timelines are never assured, Reddit is speedy to remove DMCAs on average within 48-72 hours of a valid request.

What Can I Remove on Reddit?

You can ask Reddit to remove:

Stolen videos, images, GIFs & other media files
Unauthorized use of your brand or logo

Note: You cannot file a DMCA takedown for text-only posts, posts containing only URLs, or other content that falls under Fair Use as determined by the U.S. Copyright Office.

How to Remove - Step by step

Find the Infringing Content:

Grab the URL(s) of the post or comment where your content is being misused.

Prepare Your DMCA Notice:

You may create your own or use an online DMCA notice template. Your DMCA notice must include:

Your contact details (full legal name, address, phone, email)
Description of the copyrighted work
URLs of the infringing material
Statement of ownership
Good faith belief statement
Accuracy declaration under penalty of perjury
Your electronic signature

Submit Your DMCA Request:

Use Reddit’s online copyright form: www.reddit.com/report for "Intellectual Property Requests".

What Happens Next?

Reddit will review your request and, if valid, remove the content.
The user who posted the content will be notified & may have access to your DMCA notice.
They may dispute your claim with a counter-notice, at which time you may need to take legal action.
