Takedown measures

As part of the Alibaba Group, AliExpress offers two main streams for enforcing your intellectual property.

1. Directly, via email

The Alibaba group provides a direct email address for raising and resolving intellectual property disputes, namely ipr@alibaba-inc.com. They request that you include any supporting evidence in your email, to which they will then apply the relevant legal procedures.

However, they recommend their IP platform for efficient resolution.

2. Via their IP Platform

Alibaba setup an IP platform for Aliexpress and their other online market places. The Alibaba Intellectual Property Platform (IPP) lets you verify yourself as a rights holder, then lodge takedown requests to protect your brand.

While other sellers can raise counter-claims against your complaints, the Alibaba IPP offers a streamlined way to enforce justice on Aliexpress as an online market place.

How to use the Alibaba IPP

In any case, carrying out these kinds of takedown procedures manually can be a taxing and time-consuming task. Partnering with brand protection experts helps streamline and automate your infringement actions, so reach out to the EBRAND team if you’re interested.
