First Segment: CopyTrack. Marcus Schmitt, CEO.

Millions of images are stolen and illegally used on the Internet every day. Especially for photographers, publishers and picture agencies, this causes significant financial damage. So far, authors have been largely helpless in the fight against copyright infringements, as they are still considered a trivial offense. On one hand, the search for stolen images takes a lot of time. On the other hand, legal enforcement carries a legal risk – if you lose the case, you are left with the costs.

Copytrack provides their customers with an all-round service that allows them to assert their claims easily and without risk. Our service is free of charge and we bear all legal costs. Only if the case is a success, do we retain a commission.
