Brand protection

Brand protection is continuous work, not a one-off cleanup. Here is what we do for the OKWIN brand.

What is brand protection

Types of abuse we handle

  • Fake websites — cloned layouts, logos and look-alike domains designed to mislead users.
  • Social media impersonation — pages, accounts and chat groups claiming to be official representatives.
  • Counterfeit apps — applications distributed outside official stores, often built to steal data.
  • Misleading advertising — ads using our brand name or imagery without permission.
  • Impersonation fraud — fake staff and fake promotions used to defraud customers.

Our process

  1. Intake — the report is logged with its URL and supporting evidence.
  2. Verification — cross-checked against the official channel list to rule out false reports.
  3. Case file — screenshots, domain registration data and timestamps are recorded.
  4. Takedown request — submitted to the platform, domain registrar and hosting provider.
  5. Post-removal monitoring — watching for repeat offences and updating the outcome.

Our commitment

We collect no personal data beyond what is needed to process a report, and reporter identities are kept confidential. We do not promise fixed removal deadlines — the final decision rests with each platform, and in practice this ranges from a few hours to a few days depending on severity and the receiving party.
