While many individuals find it beneficial for their information to be accessible through Google search results, others prioritise privacy and prefer to keep their details confidential. 

    Unfortunately, our increasingly interconnected world can lead to inadvertent exposure of sensitive data such as social media profiles, contact numbers, residential addresses, and even financial information.

    Google has launched a  feature called “Results About You” for users. This feature is designed to help users remove their personal information from Google. With it, you can easily delete your own personal details from search results.

    Step 1 : Visit the Google Support Page: Start by going to the Google support page.

    Step 2: Fill Out the Form: Complete the form by mentioning the URL(s) you want to be removed from search results.

    Step 3: Add Multiple URLs: You can include several URLs in the form at once.

    Step 4: Verification by Google: Google will verify the pages. If the information provided is correct, Google will remove the URLs.

    Step 5: Allow Some Time: The process may take a little time, so be patient.

    How to Remove Your Personal Information Directly from a Website?

    Step 2: Click the Three Dots: Click on the three dots next to the URL.

    Step 3: Go to ‘About this result’: Select the “About this result” page.

To do this, open the Google app and go to “Results About You.” Click on your profile photo, and you’ll be able to see the status of your requests. Further, you can add new removal requests and monitor their status from this section.
