Takedown compliance

Takedown compliance is the share of notices that are actioned, not the number of alerts.

Bridge publishes 99 percent marketplace, 93 percent social, and 83 percent website and domain takedown compliance. Those figures are not alert volume. They are the share of submitted notices that the platform or registrar actioned in the previous 12 months, counted by channel.

01

How we count it

A notice is counted as compliant when the destination (marketplace, social platform, host, or registrar) removes or disables the target after Bridge submits it. The window is the previous 12 months. Channels are counted separately because they do not behave the same. We do not count unsent detections, and we do not count alerts that never became a notice.

02

How Bridge uses it

Compliance tells a brand whether enforcement is actually landing. Alert volume does not. We aim notices at high-volume and multi-listing sellers, then treat failures as intelligence: why a host refused, which seller reconstituted, where an investigation should start.

03

What software-only programmes miss

A dashboard can show how many URLs were found. It rarely shows how many notices were sent, how many were actioned, and what happened to the seller next. If the commercial story is detections, compliance will stay unpublished, and the programme will be judged on noise.
