Remove my profile photos

I have requested, several times that the photos on my imdb page (Melanie Nute) be removed. They are my intellectual property, being my photos but were not added by myself. Someone has grabbed them from my Facebook profile, put a very poor background blur around them and uploaded them to imdb without my permission.

The suggestion I received by email that imdb staff are unable to do this themselves is just not believable.

It was suggested by a rep that I can remove these from the images page on my pro account (which I only registered for expressly to remove these photos and some unwanted credits) however the website states photos can only be edited in the imdb Pro app and on the app images page there is no delete button.

If you cannot delete them please can I have an email address for your legal department? I will make a formal request.

Have you claimed your page? This is required for adding or editing images for your own page.

But you should also be able to report images by clicking "Report this" after clicking on an image.

You should be able to do all of it on the website, not just the app.

Also see Manage your images

I have claimed my page yes, i have also reported the photos, though this feature is not available on the app, despite what they say, only on the website.

I see one photo has bern removed since last night (possibly the one i reported before i found out how to contact their copyright dept? Im not sure) . I await to see if the others will be too.

Hi Melanie -

 

Can you confirm which of these images you are wanting to remove?

@Michelle all of them please.

I'd also like all the credits down as 'actress' to be removed as well as this is incorrect. I was not an actress on any of these.

Hi Melanie -

 

The images have now been removed. 

 

Regarding the "Actress" credits, if these are incorrect you will need to request the removal of those credits through our online Update form by clicking on the "Edit Page" button at the bottom of your name page.  Once submitted our editors will review your request.

 

For more information on how to submit corrections/deletions, please see our Help Guide.
