What to do, step by step

    Document every instance before reporting Capture full page screenshots with the URL bar visible, the posting account handle, and the upload timestamp. Full page screenshot of the published article and any image galleries
  2. 02
    Run a biometric scan to find every copy across platforms Content first appearing on XVideos rarely stays there. ScanErase indexes 2.4 billion face embeddings across 200 plus platforms and identifies every current hosting location in a single scan, including AI generated derivatives.
  3. 03
    Dispatch the takedown notice to XVideos XVideos accepts NCII reports through its content removal form and through its DMCA agent. The platform requires the removal request to include the video URL and the basis for the takedown.
  4. 04
    Engage outlet counsel directly through legal channels Press and media outlets respond faster to direct legal contact than to public reporting processes. The outlet's general counsel can authorize takedown without the editorial review delays of the standard corrections process.

    Escalate through hosting and CDN if required XVideos is hosted by WebGroup Czech Republic AS. Hosting provider escalation goes through WebGroup's abuse contact and through Czech data protection authority complaints under GDPR.
  6. 06
    File a police report and preserve the legal record 47 USC 223a TAKE IT DOWN Act for the press distributed NCII provides the federal basis for the takedown. Document every notice sent, every platform response, and every removal confirmation in a single evidence file. ScanErase produces this Verified Removal Package automatically as your case progresses.

Frequently asked questions

How long will XVideos actually take to remove the content?

XVideos typically responds in approximately 34 hours when a properly formatted statutory notice is filed. ScanErase files the notice within 5 minutes of authorization and tracks compliance through your Verified Removal Package.

What if the perpetrator re uploads the content after removal?

XVideos retains hash signatures of removed NCII content which prevents identical re uploads to the same platform. A follow-up ScanErase scan checks for re uploads across all 200 plus indexed platforms, so you can file a new notice as soon as matches reappear.

I searched news outlet published my nudes and found this guide. Will using ScanErase reveal my identity to XVideos or anyone else?

ScanErase processes all data confidentially. Notices to XVideos contain only the information required by 47 USC 223a, which does not include details beyond the affected URLs and your verified identity. Your scan and removal process is not disclosed to employers, family, or any third parties.
