Did you know Google Makes New Changes To Search Including Option to Remove Personal Information Online

 

Google’s Results About You feature has been up and running since the year 2022.

The initiative allows users to look for more personal data online and also enables requests to get that information removed.

Today, the company is sharing a series of changes such as a new and improved redesigned hub and the chance to update outdated results on search that reflect such changes greatly.

The redesign is not only for display purposes but gives users the chance to enable removal requests directly through Search with limited actions. All users need to do is press or tap on the three dots located near the search result.

If do get the information about you deleted or altered from a certain page but Google has yet to notice the change, you can also refresh your search. This enables recrawling on pages and getting the latest data. So simply, you’ll witness the latest search results for you.

We agree that this feature will be so much more useful, they’re nothing major in terms of change. The update from 2023 was bigger and more relevant which rolled out proactive searches entailing information and the chance to delete consensual explicit pictures as a whole.

While the Android maker railed to roll out any major changes to the results about you feature in 2024, it did go live in places like Australia and South Africa last year in the summer. However, we have to add that this useful privacy endeavor still is inaccessible in so many nations such as Malaysia.

For now, Google is yet to share where it is located so you need to keep on checking the Google account to see what works for you right now.
