About Us
Sentinel Copyright Guardian was founded in the San Francisco Bay Area, California, USA, to protect the copyrights of books, academic works, manga, videos, and images from online piracy.
Based on our accumulated data and expertise, we monitor illegal copies globally by combining the crawling of suspicious websites and social media platforms with
thorough manual verification.
Once copyright infringement is confirmed, we submit takedown requests in accordance with the U.S. DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) and take the necessary steps to protect our clients’ copyrights.
Mission
In recent years, copyright-infringing content has crossed national and language boundaries, making it easily accessible through the internet. As a result, the financial damage caused by copyright infringement continues to grow year after year.
Copyright infringement takes various forms, ranging from organized, profit-driven activities to unauthorized sharing on social media carried out without malicious intent. However, none of these acts is acceptable.
Sentinel’s mission is to leverage over 16 years of experience, accumulated data, and the latest technologies to protect our clients from financial loss, while promoting a proper understanding of intellectual property rights throughout society.
