How to report sensitive personal details, privacy concerns, and requests involving content on our website.
Independent information: We are not a government agency, and an arrest is not proof of guilt.
What we can review
We can assess information appearing on pages controlled by recentarrestrecords.org/, including unnecessary personal details, inaccurate context, exposed protected data and URLs reported by affected individuals.
What we cannot remove
We do not control source material held by police, courts, county jails, state repositories, search engines or independent third-party databases. Removal or sealing of an official record requires contacting the custodian or following the legal process.
Submit a request safely
Email [email protected] with the exact URL, the specific information at issue, the requested outcome and a short explanation. Do not send full ID scans or Social Security numbers in an initial message.
Considerations during review
Reviewers may consider factual accuracy, current public availability, whether the record was restricted, identification mistakes, personal safety, applicable legal requirements and whether correction or contextualization would solve the concern.
Possible outcomes
Depending on circumstances, we may correct text, reduce unnecessary details, add context, remove information from a page we control or explain why the request cannot be completed. We do not guarantee search-engine deindexing or deletion of independent copies.
Security and verification
If identity verification is necessary, our team should explain the minimum evidence needed and provide an appropriate way to transmit it. Never post private evidence publicly.
