What CEMU Does
CEMU is committed to restoring fairness in the digital music space. We provide the tools, knowledge, and advocacy needed to protect musicians, producers, and rightsholders from exploitation.
1. Monitoring & Enforcement
We identify, track, and report copyright infringements across streaming services, YouTube, social media, and other platforms.
Our team actively works to take down unauthorized uploads and reclaim lost revenue for artists.
2. Legal Support & Guidance
Many musicians are unaware of their rights or how to fight back against infringement.
We provide legal resources, education, and guidance to help artists and rightsholders protect their intellectual property.
3. Advocacy & Policy Reform
We work with policymakers, music industry leaders, and digital platforms to strengthen copyright laws and push for stricter enforcement against music piracy and fraud.
