How to remove your personal information from Google?s search results
How to remove your personal information from Google?s search results
There’s a good chance that if you Google yourself, your name and information like social media links might pop out, especially if you’re someone who posts publicly on platforms like Facebook, Twitter, or Medium quite often. But sometimes you might appear in Google search results for the wrong reasons, maybe you have been hacked or doxxed and now your personal and private information has been posted in forums that can be easily searched for, now what? The best way to go about it would be to reach out to the website that published your information and ask them to take it down, but if they don’t respond or refuse to for whatever reason, your next best bet would be Google where you can actually request to have your personal information removed from search, and here’s how you can go about doing it. Request to remove personal information from Google Search
Each request will then be reviewed and according to Google, in some instances they might reach out for additional information in case what you submitted wasn’t enough. Once the review is complete, users will then be notified of the outcome. Keep in mind that not every request submitted will be processed successfully, so even if you submit a request, it might not necessarily be granted. Google says that even if your request is denied, they will provide a brief explanation as to why. Users are free to resubmit their requests later if they have additional materials that might better support their case.
