Report Intellectual Property Violations on Squarespace
Squarespace takes intellectual property rights seriously and provides clear processes for addressing potential infringement issues.
Copyright Infringement
If you believe content on a Squarespace-hosted website infringes your copyright:
- Submit a copyright notice form requesting content removal or access blocking
- Provide detailed information about the alleged infringement
- Note that submitted information may be shared with the content owner
For sites where Squarespace only provides domain registration (not hosting), contact the website owner or hosting provider directly.
Trademark Infringement
To report trademark infringement on Squarespace-hosted sites:
- Complete the trademark notice form
- Request content removal or access blocking
- Be aware that your information may be shared with the content owner
If Squarespace is only the domain registrar, direct your concerns to the site owner or hosting provider.
Enforcement Actions
Squarespace may take the following actions in response to verified infringement claims:
- Remove or restrict access to infringing content
- Terminate accounts of repeat infringers
- Share infringement notices with affected parties
All enforcement actions comply with applicable laws, including the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA, 17 USC §512).
These procedures help maintain a fair balance between protecting intellectual property rights and supporting legitimate content creation on Squarespace's platform.
