Rights notices & reporting
GooDu is an automated index of publicly available web pages. We do not host, store or reproduce the content of the sites we index. We record only facts that a machine can observe — HTTP status, page structure, domain registration data — and we describe every site with the same fields and the same ordering.
Reporting and requesting removal are two different things, and they have different requirements. They are kept apart on purpose: combining them would mean GooDu had taken on the job of deciding whether a site is fraudulent, which is a power we do not have and a judgement we are not able to make.
1. To report suspected fraud — go to an authority
If you believe a site is engaged in telecom or online fraud, report it to the competent authority. That channel has no threshold, because what it carries is a lead, and the decision belongs to law enforcement, not to us.
- National Anti-Fraud Centre (app / 96110)
- 12321 — Reporting Centre for Unsolicited and Malicious Network Information
- Police — 110
《反电信网络诈骗法》第三十条第三款:任何单位和个人有权举报电信网络诈骗活动, 有关部门应当依法及时处理,对提供有效信息的举报人依照规定给予奖励和保护。
2. To request removal of an entry — a rights notice
If a link in our index infringes your own legal rights, you may submit a rights notice. Please read this section first: the requirements below are not our preference, they are the requirements set by law.
-
Your real identity.
Individual: full name plus a valid identity document.
Organisation: registered name, business licence, and a company seal.
We do not accept anonymous notices — the statute requires the rights holder's real identity. -
The specific link to be removed.
A complete URL. A domain alone, or a statement that "this site is infringing", is not a usable notice: we cannot locate an entry from it. -
Prima facie evidence of infringement.
Proof of the right (for example a trademark registration, a copyright registration, or proof that you hold the domain) plus an explanation of why the link infringes it. -
A statement of truthfulness.
A declaration that the statements and materials are true, together with an acknowledgement of the following.《民法典》第一千一百九十五条第三款:权利人因错误通知造成网络用户或者网络服务 提供者损害的,应当承担侵权责任。
If you are not the rights holder
This procedure assumes a link infringes your rights. If you are a competing operator, or you simply think a site "should not be searchable", this is not the procedure for you — use section 1 instead. Google applies the same rule: a removal request must come from the party affected, or from that party's representative.
How to submit
- Send a written notice carrying the four items above, bearing a company seal (organisation) or a thumbprint (individual), scanned and emailed to [email protected].
- Put "Rights notice + domain" in the subject line, for example "Rights notice example.com".
This follows the practice of 360 Search's Rights Holder Protection Guide ("you must submit the notice in writing, together with supporting materials"). We take scanned copies only and do not require paper originals to be posted: a sealed or thumb-printed scan is enough to verify that the notifier is the rights holder, and the paper original is an added burden rather than a legal requirement.
What we do with a valid notice
- Once a notice meets the requirements, we review it within a reasonable time and take the corresponding measure required by law.
- We forward the notice to the affected site, so that it may respond.
- We charge nothing. If anyone asks you for a fee in GooDu's name, report it to us.
3. Counter-notice — if you are the removed party
If content of yours has been removed, you may submit a counter-notice. It must likewise be in writing, state the requirements under 《民法典》第一千一百九十六条, and carry prima facie evidence and a statement of truthfulness. Where it meets the requirements, we restore the content or the link.
4. First, check what we indexed under a domain
Before sending a notice, you can check what we recorded under a domain. What is shown is the raw text and fields read by machine — not our assessment, and not a recommendation.
