These features won’t erase your online footprint completely, but Google hopes that they will give you more control over your private information on Search.

The update is similar to a feature that Google One introduced earlier this year. It can scan the wider web for your information and notify you if it has been compromised in a data breach. The “results about you” tool works proactively to find and remove your personal info from Search, which can help you protect your privacy.app by tapping your profile photo and selecting “results about you”. You can also visit a dedicated webpage that Google has created for this purpose.

For example, if you have uploaded explicit content of yourself to a website but later decided to delete it. In that case, you can now ask Google to remove it from search results if it has been reposted elsewhere without your permission. The policy does not apply to content you are still selling or monetizing.

Removing explicit content from Google Search does not mean it will disappear entirely from the web, but it may make it harder for people to find it. You can search for “request removals” in the Google help center to learn how to use this feature.In addition, Google is rolling out some parental controls and SafeSearch updates. Starting this month, Google will blur explicit imagery in search results by default, as it announced earlier this year.

Finally, Google is making it easier to access parental controls from Search. If you type in queries like “Google parental controls” or “Google family link”, you will see an information box explaining how to adjust your account's settings or your child’s account.
