Personal data removal request form

* Required field

If you believe that your personal data is displayed on a Google product in violation of data protection and privacy laws such as the EU General Data Protection Regulation, you can use this form to request Google to remove it.

This form is for requesting the removal of specific personal data from display on the Google product you have selected. If you want to request removal of personal data from another Google product, please submit a request through that other product’s form, which you can reach at our Report Content on Google page. For example, if you want to request removal of specific results in Google Search for queries that include your name, please submit a request on the relevant Google Search form.

When you make your request, we will balance your privacy and data protection rights with the public interest in having access to the information, as well as the right of others to distribute the information — for example, we may decline to remove certain information about financial scams, professional malpractice, criminal convictions, or public conduct of government officials.

We do not share any details about your requests with Lumen. Instead, a default notice appears on Lumen that only indicates that we have received a content removal request on privacy grounds.

Legal removal requests are subject to automated processing. For more information, see the Legal Help Center.
