Remove your personal information from the internet
Your phone number, address, ID or GCash details were posted online without your consent? NetClearer removes your personal information from the internet: we report each post to the platform or website that hosts it, then ask Google to drop the pages from its results. Free assessment first, then from ₱2,050 per link, taxes included.

What we remove
Personal information is anything that lets a stranger find, call, impersonate or rob you. In the Philippines it usually ends up online through a Facebook post, a screenshot of a chat, a lending app collector or a leaked database. We handle:
- Mobile numbers posted in call-out posts, groups, comment threads and directory sites
- Home addresses, barangay and building details, and photos of your house or gate
- Email addresses and social media handles linked to your real name
- Government IDs: photos of your UMID, driver’s license, passport, PhilSys ID or company ID, and ID numbers typed in a post
- GCash, Maya and bank details: account numbers, QR codes and screenshots of transfers that show your name
- Signatures, login details and medical records shared without your consent
- Doxxing posts that combine several of these items to expose or threaten you

Learn morePersonal information cases compared
Each type of data has its own route. In every case we report the source first, then ask Google; the platform or Google decides.
| Case | What we do | Rule we rely on | Honest limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Phone number | Report the posts, then file Google’s personal information request | Meta privacy rules; Google personal information policy | Calls and texts you already receive cannot be stopped |
| Home address | Report the posts, Google request, Street View blur with you | Meta privacy rules; Data Privacy Act (RA 10173) | Government and court records follow their own rules |
| Your name on Google | Free audit, source requests, de-indexing where Google’s policies allow | Platform rules; Data Privacy Act; Google policies | Google rarely removes a result only because it is untrue |
| Lending app posts | Report posts, accounts and group copies; de-index copies | SEC MC No. 18 s. 2019; RA 11765; RA 10173 | We do not negotiate, reduce or cancel debts |
| Doxxing and “scammer” call-outs | Ask removal of the post or the data; de-index copies | Meta privacy rules; Google personal information policy | Private chats and closed groups cannot be cleaned from outside |
| Data breach re-posts | Request removal of public copies; ask Google to remove results | Data Privacy Act (RA 10173); Google personal information policy | Dark web and private group copies cannot be reached |
How we remove personal information from Google and the web
- Free assessment. Send us the links on Messenger or through the contact form. We check each one and tell you what can be removed, by which route, and the price, before you pay anything.
- Removal at the source. We report the post under the platform’s own privacy rules. Meta’s Community Standards on privacy violations, for example, cover the phone numbers, home addresses and ID numbers of private persons. For websites, we write to the owner and, if needed, to the host.
- Removal from Google. Google accepts requests to remove results that show your phone number, address, email, ID numbers, bank or card numbers, signature, login details or medical records, and results that dox you. We file one request per URL with the right evidence. More on Google routes: remove links from Google.
- Follow-up. We check every link until the decision is made, and file a second request on another ground when the first is refused. The larger packs include monitoring for new copies.
We act within 48 hours of your order with a single link, faster with the 3 and 10 link packs. Platforms and Google make the final decision: we request, they decide. See our content removal prices for every pack.
Doxxing and “scammer” call-out posts
The most common case we see in the Philippines is the call-out post: someone accuses you of being a scammer and adds your photo, full name, mobile number, address or GCash number so that others can “find” you. True or not, publishing that data exposes you to threats, prank calls and identity fraud.
We ask the platform to remove the post, or at least the personal data in it, and ask Google to de-index any copy. When the post is on Facebook, see how we remove Facebook posts about you. When your data circulates in public channels or reposts, we also handle Telegram channels and posts on X. If someone created an account in your name, that is a different procedure: remove a fake account.
Lending-app shaming posts
Some online lending apps and their collectors post a borrower’s photo, ID or contact list on Facebook, or message their family and friends. The SEC and the National Privacy Commission treat this as unlawful. We have a dedicated page to remove lending app shaming posts: we take down the posts, while you keep dealing with the loan itself.
Data breach re-posts: what is possible
When a database leaks, as with the PhilHealth breach, parts of it are often re-posted on forums, file-sharing sites and Facebook groups. We can request removal of the copies that are public on the open web and ask Google to remove the results that show your data. Copies sold or traded on the dark web or in private groups cannot be reached by anyone: we say so in the assessment instead of charging you for it.
Your rights under the Data Privacy Act (RA 10173)
The Data Privacy Act of 2012 gives you, as a data subject, the right to ask that your personal data be blocked or erased when it is false, outdated, unlawfully obtained or used without your consent. The National Privacy Commission (NPC) states that this right also covers data published online, and that the publisher should ask other sites and search engines to remove or de-list copies.
We use these rules, together with the platforms’ own policies, to write requests that you sign. We are not a law firm and do not give legal advice. If you want to file a complaint with the NPC, a police report with the PNP Anti-Cybercrime Group or the NBI Cybercrime Division, or a case in court, we prepare a clean evidence file (links, dated screenshots) that you can bring to them or to your lawyer.
What we cannot remove, and what we do instead
- Private chats and closed groups (Messenger, Viber, private Telegram groups) cannot be cleaned from the outside. We remove everything public and indexed.
- Public records and news reporting are usually protected. Courts, government registries and journalists have their own rules; we tell you honestly when a request has no chance.
- Information you published yourself is best deleted from your own accounts. We show you where it still appears and handle copies made by others.
- Your number or address itself cannot be changed by us. Removing the posts stops strangers from finding it; if you are in danger, contact the police first.
Frequently asked questions
Is my request confidential?
Yes. Platforms and Google do not tell the person who posted your data who reported it. We only use your name in a request when a policy requires the affected person to be identified, and we tell you before. Your files are deleted when your case is closed.
Can Google remove my personal information from its results?
Yes, for many types of data. Google’s policy covers phone numbers, home and email addresses, ID numbers, bank and card numbers, signatures, login details and doxxing. Removal from Google only hides the result: that is why we also report the post to the site that publishes it.
How long does it take?
We act within 48 hours of your order, faster with larger packs. Facebook, X and Google often decide within days; small websites can take a few weeks. We follow up on every link until there is a decision, and try another route when a request is refused.
What if my request is refused?
A refusal is often not final. We look for another ground (privacy, harassment, doxxing, the Data Privacy Act), go to the website’s host, or ask Google to de-index the page even when the site keeps it online. We explain each outcome so you know what is still possible.
How much does it cost?
From ₱2,050 for one link, ₱4,900 for three and ₱14,100 for ten, taxes included. A link is one URL: one post, one page or one search result. The assessment is free, so you know the price and the chances before paying anything.
