Remove an intimate image

If a nude, sexual or otherwise intimate photo or video of you is on this service and you did not agree to it being shared, you can ask us to remove it. You do not need an account. Under the US TAKE IT DOWN Act we remove it, and identical copies we can find, within 48 hours of a complete request.

In the app: press and hold the message (or open the update or live), choose Report, then Intimate image of me shared without consent. It is taken out of view straight away.

Or send a request here

What happens next

If the image shows someone under 18, report it to the NCMEC CyberTipline as well; NCMEC's Take It Down helps with images taken before you were 18. For adults, StopNCII.org helps block images across services, and the Cyber Civil Rights Initiative runs a helpline (844-878-2274).

Knowingly false requests can be unlawful. See also our Acceptable Use rules and copyright process.
