Anti-Piracy

HFA is the foremost mechanical licensing, collections, and distribution agency for U.S. music publishers. Our processes, culture, and technology are client-driven and results-oriented. We continually strive to add value and strength to the music rights industry.

The Harry Fox Agency, Inc. maintains an active Anti-Piracy Program under the supervision of our Legal Department. Through this service, HFA collects information regarding unauthorized mechanical uses of musical compositions owned and controlled by our publishers and affiliated societies (both online and physical). After researching and confirming the information we receive, we send appropriate notification to the unauthorized user. HFA's intervention frequently results in the removal of unauthorized product from the distribution channels or, if the publishers or society so desires, settlement of the matter through a licensing arrangement.
