COPYTRACK’S Proprietary “Reverse Image Search Engine Technology” Has 98% Accuracy of Finding Image Duplicates on the Internet
COPYTRACK monitors the international online use of images with worldwide licensing and rights enforcement. The COPYTRACK service is offered to photographers, publishers, news and photo agencies, and e-commerce providers, enabling them to find and enforce international image theft on the Internet without the use of expensive lawyers. The service is free, with COPYTRACK paid a portion of the fees only when and if collected. Following a strict “No win, no fee” policy, the whole process is completely risk-free for customers. COPYTRACK tracks images with its proprietary “Reverse Image Search Engine Technology,” which has a 98% accuracy of finding image duplicates on the Internet.
WMG Chairman and acting CEO Lloyd Beiny said, “We are delighted to pledge our 30 year old photo archive, which encompasses over 10 million images, to COPYTRACK, whose record of ensuring copyright owners are compensated for infringements of their IP is most impressive and, in my opinion, the very best service in the business. As the online digital world matures, the number of infringement incidents has increased exponentially. Photo assets owners need to demonstrably take a stand to curb this unlawful practice and ensure photographers and their agents are properly remunerated from those whose intent is to devalue our copyrights.”
Marcus Schmitt, CEO of COPYTRACK, said “We are happy to have Lloyd and the WMG team on board. With its long history and huge portfolio of images, WMG is a well-recognized and highly professional player in the image market. We are looking forward to a successful cooperation.”
