How To Remove Content From Google?

Need to remove copyrighted images, videos, or links from Google search results? Here's a friendly, step-by-step guide with insider tips to help you through the process!

Step 1: Identify the Infringing Content

Search Google for your copyrighted content—whether it’s an image, video, or link—and take note of the URLs where it appears.

Pro Tip: Always save URLs and take screenshots as proof!

Step 2: Access Google’s Copyright Removal Form

Visit Google’s Legal Help Center or head directly to their copyright removal request form here

Step 3: Complete the Copyright Removal Form

• Select the type of content (e.g., image, video, link).
• Provide the URLs of the infringing content.
• Pro Tip: You must collect the URL to the website page with infringing material.
• Describe your copyrighted work and explain why it should be removed.
• Add your contact details and submit an electronic signature.

Insider Tip: Google’s removal process only delists content from search results—it doesn’t remove it from the original site!

Step 4: Submit and Monitor

Submit your request and monitor its progress.

Insider Tip: Google receives many requests, so it might take time for them to review yours.

Important Considerations

• Each request is reviewed individually, and removal isn’t guaranteed.
• Even after Google delists content, it may still be available on the source site and listed on Google’s Transparency Lumen Report.
