DMCA designated agents and takedown paths, platform by platform

Published Sep 29, 2026 · Last reviewed Sep 29, 2026 · by Agent Exchange

A DMCA takedown notice only counts if it reaches the provider's designated agent: 17 U.S.C. §512(c)(2) requires every service provider that wants the safe harbor to register that agent with the U.S. Copyright Office and publish the same details on its own site. The pages below give the agent on record for 195 platforms and hosts (188 with an email address), where each fact came from and when we read it, what the notice must contain under §512(c)(3)(A), and what happens after you send it. The authoritative source is the Office's DMCA Designated Agent Directory; a designation lapses after three years unless renewed (37 CFR 201.38), so check the directory before you send if this page is older than a few months.

How this list was built

On Sep 29, 2026 we searched the Copyright Office directory for each platform by domain and company name at the rate the Office asks of software, and kept only the active designation whose service provider name matched the operating company and, where possible, whose listed alternate names included the domain. Where a platform has no active designation we read its own copyright or DMCA page and recorded the URL. No contact was inferred or guessed: a field we could not read from a source is shown as not listed.
