How the process works

  1. 1

    Claim your profile

    You must first claim your profile to file a dispute. Search for your name, find your profile, and complete the identity verification process.

  2. 2

    Find the account

    On your claimed profile page, locate the account you wish to dispute. Each account has a "Contest this account" link visible to the profile subject.

  3. 3

    Submit your dispute

    Select a reason, provide a detailed explanation (minimum 50 characters), and sign a sworn declaration. Your dispute is submitted immediately.

  4. 4

    Review within 48 hours

    Our moderation team assesses the account against our Content Guidelines. We do not remove accounts simply because the subject disagrees — the account must violate our guidelines.

  5. 5

    Outcome notification

    You will be notified of the decision. We may uphold the account, add a correction note, or remove it. The reviewer is notified if the account is removed.
