Request removal of customer photos

If you notice that a photo uploaded by a customer violates the Google Maps photo policies, you can request its removal. The photo is then reviewed and may possibly be removed from your Business Profile. It can take several days for a photo to be reviewed.

Tip: If you notice content on Google that may violate the law, you can let us know. After we review the material, we consider whether to block, remove, or restrict its public availability.
