Enforcement & Takedowns

Q: How do I log manual enforcements in the Notice View?

You should shift all manual enforcement complaints to the Notice View.

The enforcement process for manual takedowns is the exact same as for automated takedowns, it only differs in how Enforced Domains have been configured.

Q: Can I re-enforce posts that were initially tagged manually (not through Zeal)?

Yes. Items that have been manually enforced prior to the release of the Notice View will display the ‘Re-Enforce’ button. Users can click Re-enforce and proceed with the takedown process through the Notice View.

Q: Why aren't my enforcement notices showing up in Notice View?

Notices won't appear in the Notice View if:

Validation errors are present → these errors are often caused by incomplete configuration in the Zeal settings (such as missing a trademark). Correcting these errors is a crucial part of the enforcement workflow to ensure notices contain all the necessary requirements before being sent.

Q: How do I connect Amazon ABR to Zeal 2 for auto-enforcement?

We are currently developing automation for the Amazon ABR Portal - for now, all Amazon enforcements are enforced manually and logged in the Notice View for tracking.

Q: Can I enforce individual posts/webpages or only domains?

In Website View, click “Enforce” to mark the domain or specific webpage for enforcement. This action will generate a notice, which will appear in the Queued section of the Notice View.

Before clicking “Send Now,” make sure to edit the notice message as needed:

If you want to request removal of the entire domain, adjust the message accordingly.
If only specific infringing pages are involved, tailor the notice to target those URLs instead.

Please note that in some cases the full domain may not be infringing. In those situations, enforcement should focus only on the specific infringing webpages rather than the entire site.
