Removal Process
How Erasiq handles your case
Search Audit & Mapping
We conduct a comprehensive audit of your Google search footprint — identifying every harmful result, its source URL, ranking position, and removal eligibility.
Source Content Takedown
Where possible, we remove harmful content at the source first — eliminating the underlying page before requesting search de-indexing for permanent results.
Legal Removal Requests
We submit Google Legal Removal Requests citing defamation, privacy violations, outdated personal data, and applicable right-to-be-forgotten regulations.
Ongoing SERP Monitoring
We monitor search results for re-indexing, new harmful content, and ranking changes — taking proactive action to maintain a clean search presence.
Client Experiences
What clients say
"Erasiq removed three harmful search results that had followed me for years. They never disclosed my identity to any platform during the process."
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Yes, when content meets Google's legal removal criteria — including defamation, privacy violations, outdated personal data, and DMCA-eligible material. We also remove harmful content at the source when possible for permanent results.
De-indexing removes a URL from Google results while the source page may still exist. Source removal eliminates the underlying content entirely. We pursue both pathways, prioritizing permanent resolution wherever feasible.
Removal eligibility varies by jurisdiction. We assess applicable frameworks — including right-to-be-forgotten regulations where relevant — and submit legally supported requests tailored to your location and the hosting jurisdiction.
We monitor SERPs for re-indexing, new harmful content, and ranking shifts. When content resurfaces, we take proactive enforcement action before it regains visibility.
