Auction Site Management Service
Service which assists ongoing management of rights violation on auction sites. This includes the ‘survey’, ‘evaluation’ and ‘monitoring’ of auction sites, as well as obtaining the counterfeit goods and shutting down the website concerned.
Background

The amount of trade via Internet auction sites has increased rapidly in recent years; the market is predicted to exceed 1 trillion yen in the next few years. It is very difficult for customers and distributors to determine whether the website they visit as well as the goods or information offered on that website are legitimate or not.
Internet auction site management is an important management tool for combating counterfeiting, eliminating counterfeit goods and supplying safer products.

- Obtain counterfeit goods by bidding in auction
- Request the auction site to remove the goods
