Has anyone had their Adobe Stock contributor account reinstated after an IP violation involving sports branding content? I'm looking for real experiences, timelines, and outcomes.

    First off, I would never violate IP.  That’s a very serious matter. 

    Companies are fiercely protective of their brand identity, logos, trademarks, etc...

    Violating IP can carry costly legal & financial penalties.

     

    When someone files a DMCA complaint, and you think it was done in error, you can file a counter notice with proof that you didn’t violate copyright. See links below for more details

    Hope that helps.
