What should I do if I find work that looks too similar to a Minted design?

If you find a design that appears to copy an existing design on Minted, please let us know right away by filling out this form. Minted takes copyright laws very seriously and is committed to defending our intellectual property and respecting the IP of others.

Please do not directly contact companies or individuals you suspect of infringement. This includes posting about it on social media, in online groups, or on the Minted platform in design comments or the forum. Doing so may end up hurting our case if legal action needs to be taken.  It also gives infringers the heads up that Minted has been made aware of the copy before we are able to take proper action.  

Likewise, when you find submissions to challenges that you think are too similar, we ask that you do not comment on designs or reach out to artists directly about your concerns, but instead come straight to us via the form. We'd like your help to keep the Minted community a place where everyone feels comfortable experimenting, growing, learning (and, yes, making a few mistakes), and we don't anyone to feel they are being targeted or called-out.

The Minted community is a huge help to us in finding infringement, so please don't hesitate to reach out if you see something that gives you pause! We sincerely appreciate and share the passion you have for protecting the great designs on Minted and will take swift action when necessary.
