TAKE IT DOWN Act compliance for forums and communities
Since May 19, 2026, US platforms that host user content must give people a clear way to report non-consensual intimate images, including AI deepfakes, and remove them within 48 hours. The FTC enforces it, with penalties of up to $53,088 per violation.
TakeDown Kit sets up the whole process in minutes, without a trust & safety team:
- ✓Hosted request form that collects everything a valid request needs, no login required.
- ✓48-hour inbox with instant alerts, reminders and automatic updates to the requester.
- ✓Re-upload blocking and an audit trail so removed images stay gone and you can prove compliance.
