How to request Google to remove my personal info

[gourav]

Hi folks. A disgruntled business owner has put my personally identifiable info online because I gave them a bad review. How do I request Google to remove it? There is no option to report the review reply on Google.

Firstly, do a Police case against him and teach him a lesson that customers and reviews shouldn't be taken lightly.
Secondly, what do you mean by personally identifiable info online? What exact info is leaked?

You can't file a police complaint on a review made and / or reply made by that disgruntled business owner.

It will take months to get to Google to remove it.

unless your personal information like photo, address, mobile or other documents are leaked.
This can be removed easily in above case, take your issue to Google product forums.

You can try filling a DMCA takedown request : https://support.google.com/legal/answer/3110420?visit_id=637715066007409279-2587285243&rd=1

Mainly it is for copyrighted content, but corporations and people in the know use it for lots of other stuff as well. It is worth a try.

Difficult to see it work in this case, there's probably a much better chance of Google support coming to the rescue
