Protection

Group

A comprehensive anti-piracy protection program is vital for most businesses today.  The core of your anti-piracy program should be a thorough on-going search of the Internet for infringements.  Intellectual Property (IP) piracy is not going to go away; it’s an ever growing problem that impacts all of us.

The best way, in fact, the only way that we know to effectively combat piracy is through consistent search and removal of counterfeit items.  There are always unscrupulous people ready to profit from your hard work and ingenuity.  You must always be on guard to root them out and stop them.  At PPG, we think the arcade game “Wac-a-Mole” is a fitting analogy to this problem.  If you are unfamiliar with the game, mechanical moles pop up out of holes waiting to be “whacked” by a foam covered mallet.  The more moles you whack, the more tickets you win.

If you win enough tickets, you can select the prize of your choice.  Welcome to the world of IP infringement.  The counterfeiters are the moles. We deliver the blow which drives them back into their hole and the prize is enhanced business success for you.  

Whack the mole often enough and it will develop a headache.  Moles with headaches tend not to return to the same hole.  Battling Intellectual Property is a war of attrition.  Put the PPG army to battle for you!

It is not unusual for customers to experience “infringement shock” when they see the early results of our Item Searches.  The number of infringing listing can be unnerving.  Do not be dismayed.  The level of infringements will decline with continued search and enforcement efforts.    

Our combination of automated and human search produces the best results in the industry.  There are other firms on the Internet that will conduct an IP search for you.  They will perform key word searches and provide you with an information “dump” of their findings, leaving you to sift through their findings for infringement.  That’s not the way we do it.  

Our search process will scour the Internet for piracy of your Intellectual Property.  When a potential “hit” is found, the result is elevated to our review team who will audit the result and qualify the item to verify that an infringement has been found.  We will only report to you those results which we believe are genuine infringements.  This saves you time and money.  

Most likely everyone who has used the Internet has searched the Web at one time or another.  A logical question to ask yourself is “Why can’t I do this myself?”  If you proceed down this line of thinking then continue to ask yourself the following questions: Where do I find the time to do this?  Where do I search to find piracy?  Is searching the web for piracy the best use of my companies’ financial and human capital?  Do I have experience in finding piracy on the Web?  If the answers to these questions are negative, and we think they will be, then look no further than PPG to be your piracy bloodhounds.  

The average daily cost to you is $17.50 per business day when you use our Intermediate Text Package.  Our more intense Advanced Text Package has an average daily business cost of only $22.50  The average daily cost drops even lower when you engage us on a quarterly basis.  Both of the quarterly plans also include free DMCA Takedown notices, resulting in even more savings.  If you are performing your own internet of searches for piracy, analyze your daily average cost.  When you factor in salaries, fringe benefits and direct operating costs (i.e.: electrical, communications, equipment, etc.), we think you will come to the conclusion that our Text Packages are very cost effective. We are able to offer this because of our proprietary algorithm.

Our superior results and low prices make us the best choice for piracy search.  We serve as your trusted search partner so that you can spend your time growing your business.  

PPG can conduct piracy searches using two different criteria: search for an Item or search based on “key words”.  We think that our Item Text Service is ideal for companies who need to look text for only infringement on the Web.  An example of a text only search is a Trademark search where the Trademark only contains written words.  This allows you to realize some savings versus our Item Search Service without losing any of PPG’s industry leading search capabilities.  

We have Text Search packages to suit your budget and needs.  The packages vary with the frequency of our Internet searches and the reporting of our results to you.  They range from our Basic Text Search package which includes one week of search and one findings report per month to our Deluxe Text search which includes daily searches and notification of an Infringement to you within twenty-four (24) hours of verification of the infringement.  The choice is yours!  

Not sure that our Text Search services are not right for you?  Why not try our one-time free trial for new search customers.  

Our flat fee Text Search packages are price protected.  We provide full transparency so you know exactly what you are getting, with no additional surprise costs.  All of these allow us to build a better relationship with you, our client.
