You can also request to remove confidential log-in credentials from Search to protect you from identity theft
, Google announced that, from now on, in addition to bank account and credit card numbers, users will be able to request the removal of other types of information, such as phone numbers, email addresses, or physical addresses, from its search results. But Google doesn't stop there. To protect you from identity theft, the company also enables you to remove information, such as confidential log-in credentials, if they appear in Search.
However, don't expect Google to erase all the data straight away. When you send a removal request, the company will first assess all the content on the web page that displays your credentials to ensure that it is not limiting the availability of other broadly useful information, such as news articles.
Google will also check if the content you want to delete isn't part of the public record on government or official sites. If it is, it won't make the removal. It should be noted that removing content from Google's search results doesn't mean that it is gone from the Internet. As the company pointed out, if you want something completely gone, you should speak with the hosting site directly.
