Who is AiPlex Software Private Limited?
AiPlex Software Private Limited is a Bangalore-based digital rights management and anti-piracy firm hired by film studios, record labels, and broadcasting networks to monitor the internet and enforce intellectual property rights. Using automated crawler algorithms and manual hash-matching, AiPlex flags and removes unauthorized video clips, audio tracks, movie stills, and copyrighted media across YouTube, Google Search, Facebook, Telegram, and web hosting providers.
Step 1: Determine If the Strike is Valid or False (Fair Use)
Before taking action, evaluate whether your usage qualifies as Fair Use under copyright law (e.g., critique, review, parody, news reporting, commentary, or educational usage) or if the strike was mistakenly issued due to automated false-positive matching. If you own original rights or have legitimate licenses, you have strong grounds for immediate retraction or counter-notification.
Step 2: Reaching Out Directly for a Claim Retraction
The fastest, lowest-risk resolution is obtaining a voluntary retraction from the claimant. In your YouTube Studio or DMCA notice email, locate the claimant contact address. Send a polite, legally structured retraction request outlining why your content complies with copyright guidelines, includes proper attribution, or was mistakenly flagged. Many automated claims can be resolved swiftly through professional communication.
Step 3: Filing a Formal DMCA Counter-Notification
If the claimant fails to respond and you are confident your content is legally protected under Fair Use or public domain, submit a formal DMCA Counter-Notification through YouTube or the hosting provider. Once submitted, the claimant has 10-14 business days to provide proof of court action; otherwise, the strike is removed and your content is automatically restored.
Step 4: Professional ORM & Digital Rights Intervention
For enterprise brands, media channels, and high-earning creators, managing malicious or repeated strikes requires experienced ORM specialists and cyber legal support. Online Reputation Builder provides expert copyright strike resolution, counter-notice drafting, and channel protection services to restore your digital assets rapidly.
