Online Content Removal – EU Platform Regulation Compliance

We have extensive experience in removing content that infringes personality rights, data protection rights (especially rights under the GDPR), and intellectual property rights from Google and other search engine results, as well as from social media platforms and other online services (e.g., Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, etc.).

Removing Google search results

Among search engines, Google plays a prominent role, as most online searches take place on this platform. Therefore, the publication of unlawful, misleading, or certain personal data-containing or sensitive content in Google search results can have a particularly severe impact on reputation and privacy.

Our law firm provides effective legal assistance in cases such as:
  • Removal of personal data, outdated, or inaccurate information from search results
  • De-indexing of defamatory or injurious content
  • Preparing and submitting legal requests in cases of infringement of image rights or privacy
  • Full legal support throughout Google’s data removal request process.
It is important to note that Google search results themselves do not store content; therefore, it is often necessary to:
  • Request removal of the content from the source website, and simultaneously
  • Request deletion (de-indexing) of the corresponding Google search results.

Content removal from platforms other than Google

We also act to remove content from various other platforms, including:

  • Social media platforms: Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, etc.
  • Websites, blogs, forums
  • Online news portals: in cases of unlawful, outdated, or misleading information.

Platform Regulation

Our firm provides comprehensive legal advice on European Union platform regulation, with special emphasis on the Digital Services Act (DSA) and the Digital Markets Act (DMA). We help clients navigate the continuously evolving legal environment governing digital ecosystems, including regulations affecting online platforms, social media, and other digital service providers.

We advise on matters such as account suspensions, making online content inaccessible or restricted, including moderation measures, and disputes arising from unlawful content, suspension of influencer accounts or limiting accessibility to online content. We assist clients in enforcing remedies against platforms and ensuring compliance, enabling both businesses and users to operate within regulatory frameworks. Additionally, we support digital businesses in achieving compliance with European platform regulations.

How can we help?

Our services include:

  • Legal advice on content classification, removal options, platform regulation, and related rights and obligations
  • Preparation and submission of official requests to service providers and platforms
  • Legal representation in litigation and out-of-court proceedings
  • Enforcement of rights at the source of the content
  • Enforcement of data protection and personality rights claims.

It is important to understand that not all information can be removed from the internet. The right to privacy and personal data protection may be overridden by other fundamental rights, including the right to information and freedom of expression.

If online content violates your personality rights, reputation, or legitimate data protection interests, contact us confidently. We offer fast, discreet, and effective legal solutions with personalized strategies.

FAQ – Frequently asked questions on Internet content removal

  1. When can content removal from Google search results be requested?

    Removal can be requested if the displayed data or information violates personality rights, data protection rights under the GDPR, or other legal provisions. Removal of outdated or inaccurate content can also be initiated.

  2. How is content removed from Google search results?

    An official request is submitted to Google to remove the unlawful link from search results. Where appropriate, we also coordinate with the client to seek removal of the content at its original source (e.g., the website operator). Note that content may remain accessible in non-Hungarian language versions of Google or other search engines, and prior consultation is advisable regarding removal from those.

  3. How long does it take to remove unlawful content from search results?

    The removal time varies depending on the nature of the content, response times of service providers, and whether litigation is required.

  4. What types of content removal can you assist with?

    We help remove content infringing personality rights, defamatory statements, unauthorized personal data, copyright-infringing works, and outdated or inaccurate information, including sensitive data related to private life or past criminal proceedings where applicable.

  5. What legal steps can be taken to remove content?

    Our law firm prepares and submits official requests to platforms displaying the content, provides legal representation in both litigation and alternative dispute resolution, and offers legal advice on enforcing data subject rights.

  6. My social media account was suspended — what should I do?

    Under the DSA rules, transparent information must be provided to users about such decisions, who have the right to appeal and use online dispute resolution mechanisms. Our experts can provide effective assistance in these matters.
