Important: This document is a product policy and risk-control statement, not personal legal advice. It does not waive non-waivable rights and must not be read as a claim that every listed law applies in every jurisdiction.
What to provide
- Affected URL/content identifier.
- Specific statement, media or data at issue.
- Nature of the concern or right asserted.
- Supporting context and a reliable reply address.
- Authority to act if representing another person.
Triage
Requests may be prioritized by credible risk of imminent harm, privacy exposure, child safety, legal deadlines, impersonation, reputation damage or ongoing infringement. A report is a request for review, not a finding that content is unlawful or false.
Escalation
We may ask for additional information, restrict content while reviewing, preserve relevant audit evidence, or refer a matter for qualified legal review. Do not send unnecessary identity documents, passwords, payment credentials, medical records or other highly sensitive material.
