KREMLIN BOT / IN PRACTICE
Information and publication removal: assess the grounds, then act
A request to remove information online may involve an inaccurate article, an outdated page, a copied work or personal information. We begin with the exact URL and content, then identify the appropriate recipient and grounds. The aim is to choose an applicable approach and maintain a verifiable action history.
Reviewing the material and original source
We review the full publication, not just a headline or screenshot. We identify its origin, which facts are supported, what is disputed and which documents are available. Copies, reprints, search results and images are recorded separately, with the date and issue for each item.
Where a publication contains a real complaint, we discuss addressing the underlying issue and giving a substantive response. For an error, we explain the disputed passage, supporting evidence and proposed correction.
Removal, correction or a response
A request may go to an editor, platform administrator or another designated channel. We approve the factual wording, links and attachments. Where removal is not applicable, we consider a correction, clarification, official comment or publication of your position. Different materials may need different actions even when they cover the same topic.
Copyright matters are separated from disputes about content or opinion. Where a legal opinion, litigation or assessment of applicable law is required, specialist involvement is agreed separately.
Checking the source and search results
After a response, we check the original page, copies and search visibility. Website changes and updates in Google or Yandex may happen at different times. Reports separately show completed actions, confirmed changes and requests still under review, so distinct stages are not confused.
Define the issue before requesting removal
A request to remove information may concern an incorrect news report, an old profile, a copied article, an exposed contact or a misleading image. We start with the exact URL and content, then examine the grounds and platform procedures available for that case.
Discovery dates, contextual screenshots and evidence of errors help clarify the issue. We separately identify information that can be corrected on resources you control, keeping technical updates, editorial disputes and rights requests distinct.
When an entire article cannot be removed
An appropriate result may be a corrected name, an updated fact, a reply from the other side or the removal of a specific passage. Considering those options makes the request more focused and easier for its recipient to assess.
We record the publisher’s response and verify the source page. Outdated search copies and republications may need separate attention. Each URL receives its own status: removed, corrected, awaiting a decision or requiring additional evidence.
Questions before we start
Can an article be removed from another website?+
This depends on the content, grounds and the decision of the owner or authorised platform. We propose applicable options after review; unauthorised access to another website is not part of the process.
Does removal from Google delete the publication?+
No. Search results and the source website are separate. A result can disappear from search while the original page remains available by direct link. We check both separately.
What should I send for assessment?+
Exact links, a description of the disputed information, your connection to the material and available evidence. For many links, a spreadsheet with priority publications is useful.
