Online content removal services that actually work.
Harmful content online is not a permanent sentence. We permanently delete defamatory articles, outdated records, leaked images, false complaints, and damaging search results. You only pay once the content is gone.
Deletion at the source. A permanent fix, not a temporary patch.
Suppression and reputation building have their place, but removal is the most permanent solution when it is achievable. We pursue deletion at the source first, and search engine de-indexing second, so the content does not just move — it disappears.
Source takedown
We contact the publisher directly and secure removal of the original post, article, or listing from the hosting website.
Google de-indexing
Once the source is removed, we submit de-indexing requests directly to Google so the URL disappears from search results.
Lifetime protection
Every removal is protected forever. If the content ever reappears, we take it down again at no cost to you.
Pay only on success
No upfront fees. No retainers. You are billed only after the link is confirmed gone. Zero risk.
Every type of harmful content, across every platform.
After 15+ years and 15,000+ cases, we have seen (and removed) virtually every form of damaging online content. Here is what we handle most often.
Negative Google search results
When someone searches your name or business, the first page shapes every first impression you will never get to make in person. A single outdated article or false complaint in position 3 can cost you clients, jobs, and relationships for years.
We audit your search results, identify the highest-priority URLs, and pursue removal or de-indexing through publisher outreach, legal documentation, and Google's own removal tools.
Learn about Google removalNews articles and press coverage
News from 2012 about a lawsuit that was dismissed. A local paper story written with one side of the story. A tabloid item that was never retracted. These results often rank highly and follow people for decades.
Our team has established relationships with publishers and knows which removal arguments succeed with editors, legal teams, and content platforms. We have removed content from thousands of outlets including regional newspapers, national publications, and independent blogs.
Learn about news article removalPersonal information and data broker listings
Hundreds of websites scrape public records and display your home address, phone number, relatives, email, and employer without your consent. These profiles enable harassment, stalking, and identity theft, and they are refreshed automatically.
We identify every listing across major data broker networks and submit removal requests in bulk, then monitor for re-population.
Learn about personal info removalSocial media posts and profiles
Defamatory posts on Facebook, X (Twitter), Reddit, TikTok, and YouTube can spread rapidly and appear prominently in search results for your name. Once shared, they are difficult to contain through platform reporting alone.
We escalate directly through platform legal and trust-and-safety channels, pursuing takedowns through policy violations, defamation notices, and copyright claims where applicable.
Learn about social media removalUnauthorized images and videos
Leaked intimate images, unauthorized use of your likeness, embarrassing photos from years ago, and pirated or stolen video content can appear on hundreds of sites within hours of being posted.
We pursue takedowns through DMCA notices, platform abuse policies, and legal escalation. We track syndication across multiple domains so removal is thorough, not partial.

Mugshot sites profit from republishing arrest records and booking photos, including for charges that were dropped, dismissed, or expunged. These listings rank high for full names and are indexed by Google for years after the fact.
We work directly with mugshot aggregators, court record sites, and law enforcement database syndication networks to pursue removal, then request Google de-indexing once the source is gone.

How we determine what can be removed, and how.
Not every piece of content is removable through the same channel. We evaluate each case individually and recommend the most direct, most permanent path to removal.
Platform policy review
We assess whether the content violates the hosting platform's own terms of service. Defamatory content, harassment, privacy violations, and false claims often qualify for direct platform removal without legal action.
Publisher outreach
For news articles, blogs, and forums, we contact editors, webmasters, and legal contacts directly. We build structured outreach cases that address the publisher's concerns, not just assert our client's preferences.
Legal and DMCA routes
Where platform policy and outreach are not sufficient, we pursue DMCA takedown notices for copyright violations, and escalate through legal channels for defamation, privacy law breaches, and court-ordered removals.
Google direct removal
For certain content categories (personal information, doxxing, non-consensual images, court records), Google offers direct removal tools. We submit and manage these requests on your behalf.
De-indexing requests
Once content is removed from the source, we submit URL removal requests to Google, Bing, and other search engines to accelerate de-indexing and stop cached versions from continuing to appear.
Monitoring and re-removal
Some content reappears on mirror sites or through re-publication. We monitor every successful removal case and handle any reappearance under the lifetime guarantee at no additional cost.
We have been doing this since 2009. This is all we do.
Guaranteed Removals is a division of Erase Technologies, LLC, headquartered in Burlington, Ontario with offices in Miami, FL. Content removal is our core focus.

Our team's core focus is permanent content removal. That singular focus, built since 2009, is what separates a specialist's success rate from what you get from a generalist marketing agency with a removal service bolted on.
Named, dedicated account managers
Every client is assigned a named specialist who handles their case from initial review to confirmed removal. You communicate directly with the person doing the work, not a support queue.

Everything you want to know before getting started.
What exactly is online content removal?
Online content removal is the process of getting a specific URL or post permanently deleted from the hosting website and removed from search engine indexes. It is different from SEO suppression (which pushes content down in rankings) or reputation monitoring (which tracks what exists). Removal means the content is gone from the internet, not just harder to find.
Is it legal to remove content from the internet?
Yes. Every removal method we use is fully legal. This includes requesting removal under platform policies, issuing DMCA takedown notices for copyright-protected material, submitting requests under defamation law, invoking privacy rights under applicable legislation, and using Google's own removal tools for categories like personal information and non-consensual images. We never pursue removal through deceptive or unauthorized means.
Can you remove content that has been online for years?
Yes. The age of content does not determine whether it can be removed. Some of our most common cases involve news articles from 2010 to 2016, court records from closed legal matters, and mugshot listings that have been indexed for a decade. In many cases, older content is easier to address because the publisher has changed ownership, their policies have evolved, or legal arguments around harm have strengthened over time.
How long does content removal take?
Timelines vary by platform and removal method. Review removals and social media takedowns can complete in 24 to 72 hours. Data broker removals typically clear within 7 to 14 days. News articles and complaint site removals often take 4 to 8 weeks depending on publisher response times. Court and legal record removals vary most widely, from a few weeks to 90 days. Your specialist gives you a specific timeline estimate before any work begins.
How much does content removal cost?
Pricing is custom to each case. It depends on the number of URLs, the hosting platforms, and the removal method required. All pricing is provided upfront in your case assessment before any work begins. You are never billed for a removal that did not succeed. To get a specific quote, submit your case through the form below and your specialist will respond within one business day.
Will the content stay gone permanently?
In the overwhelming majority of cases, yes. When content is removed at the source and de-indexed by Google, the vast majority of removals are permanent. In cases where content reappears (typically through automated re-publishing or mirror sites), our lifetime guarantee covers it. We monitor all completed cases and handle any reappearance at no cost to you, indefinitely.
Do you work with individuals and businesses?
Yes, both. We handle personal cases (news articles mentioning individuals, mugshot listings, personal data exposure, leaked images, defamatory forum posts) and business cases (fake reviews, competitor attacks, negative press, employee complaint posts). Executives, public figures, and private individuals are all common client types. Every case is treated with full confidentiality.
What if the content cannot be removed?
We assess removability before you commit to anything. If we believe a piece of content cannot be removed through available channels, we tell you upfront and do not charge. For content that cannot be deleted, our sister brand Erase.com specializes in reputation building and content suppression strategies that reduce the visibility of content that cannot come down. You only pay us for successful, confirmed removals.
Tell us what needs to come down. We will tell you if we can do it.
