Frequently asked questions
Can my ex keep re-posting if I find the images?
Re-posting discovered NCII is a separate issue. Each re-post may create new exposure that you can find with ScanErase.
Do I need to prove my ex posted the images?
No. ScanErase targets the platform hosting the content, not the person who posted it. You can initiate your search without identifying the poster.
Can I take legal action against my ex for posting intimate images?
In most US states, you may have a civil cause of action for NCII distribution. Your exposure report can be essential for any civil lawsuit. Consult a civil rights attorney.
