Want to find out if Google is displaying your information? It will let you know.
A new dashboard that notifies users when their personal information emerges online or in a new search result is being rolled out by the corporation. Users will then have the option to promptly delete their personal information from the internet.
The company is introducing a brand-new dashboard that will notify users whenever their personal information appears online or whenever a new search result is displayed, providing customers the opportunity to promptly remove personal information.
The tool is currently only accessible in the United States and only in English, and removing a Google result would not remove it from the internet.
How do I remove personal information from Google?
If your email address, home address, or phone number appears in a link in the Google search results, click the three vertical dots next to the result and choose "Remove result.
By responding to inquiries on a thorough removal request form, you may also eliminate results that displa erroneous contact information or are probably infringing on third parties' copyrights.
Users can check the status of their removal requests in the Google app, browser, or "Results about you" page, which displays whether the request has been authorized, denied, or been undone.
Users of Google can also request the removal of personally identifying data that might be used for doxxing, such as their Social Security number, bank account number, pictures of their identification documents, pictures of their handwriting, images of their medical records, and private login information.

The SafeSearch feature, which is activated by default for users under 18, blurs explicit images, such as adult or graphic violent content, when it shows in the Google search results. This setting was introduced by the business earlier this year. This month, it will go global. Unless a parent or network administrator at the school locks the setting, it can be disabled at any time.
