About this service
Personal Information Removal in Australia
Personal information removal covers exposed phone numbers, addresses, email addresses, family details and other private information appearing on search results, directories and public pages. Search Cleanup Australia helps individuals and families across Australia review these exposures and submit removal requests through the right channels where one is available.
Where exposed personal information typically appears
Personal information ends up online through directories, leaked databases, old profiles, doxxing, harvested social posts and people-search style sites. Sometimes it is also exposed by an old employer page, a forgotten subscription site or a community forum.
Each source has its own takedown or deindexing path. Some sites have clear opt-out forms, some require a formal request, and some sit behind Google's personal-information removal policies. We identify the right route per item so each submission has the best chance of being accepted.
What we can and cannot influence
We can review exposed items in scope, submit removal or deindexing requests where a route exists, and follow up in writing. We cannot force a publisher or platform to act, and we cannot guarantee that information will not re-appear on another site in the future.
Where information re-emerges, it is usually republished by a different data source. Long-term protection often requires a combination of removal, monitoring and minor changes to where your details appear online.
Doxxing and urgent personal-safety cases
If you are dealing with active doxxing, threats or a personal-safety risk, we can review the case quickly and identify the most appropriate Google and platform routes. We do not provide legal advice, and we always recommend involving Australian law enforcement or a solicitor when there is a safety concern.
Our role is the platform and search-side work. The legal and policing side is separate, and the two often work best in parallel.
