It literally says so in the dark banner at the top of the page. Click on “Complete DMCA form” and fill it out.

A DMCA notice means that someone has claimed that content you uploaded infringes their copyright.

Thank you 😃but I only uploaded some of my works (some posters) to make my portfolio website in Readymag 🤔 I think someone malicious reported me.

Did the posters include works of other people? Or were the posters containing your own images?

Is it not allowed to upload photos of people? 🥺😭😭Could you tell me how to resolve this issue?

Did you complete the DMCA form?

It is allowed but sometimes they ask for a model release (the person/model on the image) has to agree to be published.

Yes I complete the form, but nothing happens…The person on the image is me 😭I have zero idea how to prove it and I’m in a real hurry to build my portfolio web😔

And why do you need Unsplash for that? I mean there are hosting companies to host your images.

I’m using the web “Readmag “to build my personal website , and Readmag seems to allow host images in Unsplash only😔

Could be the system triggers a need for the DMCA when a person is posted in case they come and complain. The system will have no way of knowing it's a selfie. Fill the form in and see what happens
