Frequently asked questions

If Google identifies the image from search, is the problem solved?

Not fully. Identifying a URL in Google Search means the image does not appear in Google results, but it remains on the hosting website and can still be found via direct links, other search engines, and social sharing. ScanErase targets the source so you can act on it.

Does ScanErase also find images on Google?

Yes. In addition to finding images, ScanErase addresses search engine indexing for Google, Bing, and other major search engines as part of the discovery process.

How long does Google's identification process take?

Google's tool typically takes several days to a few weeks to process requests. The response time may vary based on the platform's policies.
