Users under 18 can now request Google to remove their images from Google Search 

Users under 18 can now request Google to remove their images from Google Search

Google does not allow kids under the age of 13 to create an account in Google as of now. However, it does not have an algorithm to detect whether an underaged user has faked his age or not.

Google is ramping up its policies to make the internet a safe place for young users. The search giant has announced that it will give minors more control over their digital footprint. In simple terms, Google will now let users under the age of 18 request the removal of their images from Google Search results. If the young user is not able to file the application, their parents or guardian can request Google on their behalf. Google, however, made it clear that it would not remove the images from the web. “In the coming weeks, we’ll introduce a new policy that enables anyone under the age of 18, or their parent or guardian, to request the removal of their images from Google Image results. Of course, removing an image from Search doesn’t remove it from the web, but we believe this change will help give young people more control of their images online,” the search giant said in the blog post.
