Thanks Bethanny, 

I appreciate your reply. I agree that being listed as part of crew or cast as a factual event is fine. What I don't agree with is a full profile that uses an image that I haven't given IMDB permission to use. A third party has set this account up, I'm just trying to work out how to remove this information that's all. I'm okay with being listed in credits I just don't want a page that shows up in Google Searches with my name on it as it is misleading to my current work / community. I believe it's within my right to request the image at least to be taken down do as the data pertains to my personal brand and records. 

Let me know if you can help in this regard, IMDB does great work thank you! I no longer work in this space and don't want my image attached to this site. Thankyou.

How do I delete an IMDB page or image? An actor profile page was created for me without my permission including a photo that has not been given permission for this use. I need to take the image down. Happy to be listed on IMDB for the film work i've done but don't want this image or profile appearing in google searches? Any ideas? Agree IMDB does great work and lists factual events but in terms of data privacy and relation to imagery that can no longer be used it would be great to have some guidance for a positive outcome. Thanks.

Hi there IMDB,

I seem to have 3 different IMDB profiles? How do I merge or delete ones that aren't me?

Thanks again

Giles

Giles: Please post the links to all three profiles here. Also, please tell us which one has your real name, and tell us what data on each of the three pages pertains to you and what data does not pertain to you. This will make it easier to explain how to solve your problem.

I may have more questions once I see your three pages, but this will help get us started.
