Is there anyone who knows well about web hosting?

I made some kind of design myself and uploaded it on Zazzle/TeePublic/Redbubble/Tumblr.

https://beutee.net
https://vietnamreflections.com

But the two sites at the top are selling copies of my design without my consent.

When I searched about design theft, I got information that the DMCA take-down notice should be submitted to the web host and that I should report it to Google so that it is not exposed to Google.

So I reported it to Google first. Next, I searched these sites on Hosting Checker and it said [Hosted by Cloudflare, Inc.]. So I tried to contact Cloudflare, but I found out that Cloudflare was an additional service without hosting the website.

So I asked how to find the web hosts on these two sites on another site, and someone gave me this advice. [the vietnam domain is hosted at rackspace. But it seems to be owned by vietnam verterans of america. It could be hacked.]

Would it be a problem if I send DMCA takenown notice to Rackspace in this situation? Would it be a problem to report it to Google?

I don’t know what to do in this situation. Is there anyone who knows this field well? I’d appreciate your advice.

I replied to your previous email on this subject but to help you may also want to pop over to ‘Who stole my images?’ Facebook page. There are many people on there who know more than me and hopefully can help you. Good luck :heart:https://www.facebook.com/groups/442213309304038

Thank you very much. I didn’t know where to ask, but it was very helpful. I applied to join right away.

I start by contacting the company via any contact page they have to tell them about the design theft. This usually remedies the matter. But if they are resistant or you can’t see who to contact then a DCMA is a good move. But thus far (outside of Amazon) this generally works.

Thank you very much for your advice. I also want to contact the company that copied the design, but I’m worried that the site looks suspicious. I’m worried because I heard about hacking.

hello. Sorry for the additional question. When you contact the company that stole your design, do you send an email with your work URL attached?

I’m also trying to contact the company that stole my design first, but I’m afraid they’ll imitate another design again.

I email them from my regular email or use their contact form.

I generally send a product link or wait till they ask. They generally just remove the item, because they know already it is stolen.

That’s tough. Reporting to Google was a good step. If Rackspace is confirmed as the host, you can send them a DMCA notice too, just keep records of what you’ve done so far.
