Counterfeit or infringing listings on marketplaces and social platforms can damage your brand and divert sales from the Chilean market. Our team at Brealant prepares and files takedown notices under each platform's IP policy to get infringing content removed quickly.

A takedown notice is a formal complaint submitted to an online platform, asking it to remove content that infringes your registered trademark under the platform's own IP policy.
Purpose and Function of a Takedown Notice
It provides a fast, out-of-court route to remove counterfeit or infringing listings without needing to pursue the seller individually.

Takedown notices are effective, but they have limits
Platform-Specific
A notice only removes content from the platform it's submitted to — other platforms require separate notices.
No Guarantee of Removal
Platforms make their own determination and may reject an incomplete or unclear notice.
Doesn't Stop Reposting
Infringers can sometimes relist under a new account, requiring repeat action.
Doesn't Replace Legal Action
For serious or repeat infringers, a notice alone may not be enough, and further legal steps may be needed.
Requires Evidence of Rights
Most platforms require proof of trademark ownership, so unregistered rights can slow the process.
Brealant advises when a notice is enough, and when stronger enforcement action is warranted.
