FAQ

Indeed opt-out FAQ

Can I get something removed from Indeed if I don’t have an account?

Often, yes. Indeed accepts privacy, copyright, and abuse reports through its help or contact pages.

Will Indeed remove content just because it’s negative?

Usually not. Platforms remove content that breaks their rules or the law, such as private information, harassment, impersonation, or copyright infringement.
