Unclaimed Profile Removal Notice

Version 0.2 · 2 August 2026. This page is linked from the banner shown on every unclaimed creator profile. The unclaimed-profile ingestion feature is not yet live; today all unclaimed profiles are synthetic demonstration data about fictional people.

Is there a NicheCollab profile about you that you didn't create?

NicheCollab includes "unclaimed" creator profiles compiled from publicly available information — public social-media pages and similar public sources. These profiles are clearly labeled, are excluded from search-engine indexing, and do not mean you have joined or endorsed NicheCollab. Offers sent to an unclaimed profile are never delivered to you; they are held privately and only become visible if you claim the profile.

If a profile is about you, you have three options — none of them require creating an account:

Remove it. We will take the profile down.
Correct it. We will fix inaccurate information. A person checks every requested correction against the public source the information came from — corrections are never applied automatically. If you would rather fix it yourself, claiming the profile (option 3) is usually the fastest route; the form and email routes below always remain open and need no account.
Claim it. Verify that you control the linked social account(s) and take over the profile — you then manage it, edit it directly, and see any held offers.

How to request removal or correction

The fastest route is the request form — it is on every unclaimed profile page ("Request removal or a correction now") and on this page. The form asks for:

whether you want removal or correction (for corrections: what is wrong, and what it should say instead);
the link (URL) to the profile — only on the form on this page; the form on a profile page already knows which profile you are on;
an email address we can send a confirmation link to (never shown publicly);
whether you are the person the profile is about, or are acting for them (agents/representatives: say so — we may ask for evidence of authority);
an optional tick to tell us the profile is about someone under 18 — we treat those requests as urgent and a person reviews them;
your confirmation of this statement: "I confirm this profile is about me, or I am authorised to act for the person it is about."

Email works too. Send the same details, plus the link (URL) to the profile, to [email protected].

Verification

We only ask you to confirm your email address: we send a single-use confirmation link (it expires in 72 hours), and your request is processed once you use it. Confirming shows us the email address is yours — it is not an identity check. If the link expires before you use it, the unconfirmed request and the email address on it are deleted, and you can simply submit again.

We ask for more only where there is genuine doubt — for example, requests made on someone else's behalf, requests stating the profile is about someone under 18 (treated as urgent), or unusual patterns of requests. Those requests are reviewed by a person instead of being processed automatically. We will not ask for government ID unless there is a genuine doubt we cannot resolve otherwise, and we will delete any verification material once the request is resolved.

What happens next

You receive an acknowledgment email the moment you confirm your email address — always within our 3-business-day acknowledgment promise. Removal requests for unclaimed profiles are normally executed automatically once you confirm, and we email you when the removal is complete. Requests that need a person's review, we aim to resolve within 7 business days — and in all cases within the legal deadline that applies to you (one month under the EU/UK GDPR; 45 days under the CCPA).
Removal: the profile is removed from public view immediately when your request is executed, and any held (undelivered) offers attached to it are voided. Residual copies of the profile data are permanently deleted from our systems within 30 days of removal; during that period the data is not publicly visible anywhere and is retained solely so we can detect and reverse fraudulent or mistaken removal requests. In the rare case that a payment connected to the profile has not finished settling when deletion is due, deletion waits until that payment completes — the profile stays out of public view throughout, and the data is deleted as soon as the payment is done. We keep a minimal suppression record — the profile's page name on NicheCollab, plus keyed, non-readable codes derived from that name and from the profile's platform handles — whose only purpose is to stop the profile from being re-created by future data ingestion. If you prefer no suppression record, reply to the completion email or tell us at [email protected] — but the profile could then reappear.
If the profile has been claimed by an account holder, we notify that account holder before acting. They have 14 days to confirm or contest the removal; if they confirm, or do not respond within 14 days, the removal is executed. If they contest it, the request is reviewed by a human. Because of this notice period, claimed-profile requests may take longer than our 7-business-day aim, but we will always respond within the legal deadline that applies to you (one month under the EU/UK GDPR, extendable with notice for contested cases; 45 days under the CCPA).
Correction: a person checks the requested correction against the public source the profile information came from and updates the profile if it checks out — corrections are never applied automatically. We email you the outcome.
We do not charge for removal or correction requests, and making a request has no negative consequences.

Your legal rights

This process implements, and does not replace, your legal rights. If you are in the EU/UK, a removal request is treated as an objection under Article 21 GDPR and/or an erasure request under Article 17 GDPR; you also have rights of access, rectification, and restriction, and the right to complain to your data protection authority (your local supervisory authority; in the UK, the ICO). If you are a California resident, you may exercise your CCPA rights to know, delete, and correct. Full details: Privacy Policy, Sections 6 and 12.

Our default is to honor removal requests for unclaimed profiles without argument.

Submit a removal or correction request online

The fastest route — no account needed. Paste the profile link, leave your email, and confirm your email address from the link we send you. Emailing [email protected] works too. Requested corrections are checked against the public source the profile information came from and applied by a person — never automatically.
