Minors and their parents can now request that photographs of them be removed from Google search results.

In a blog post published Wednesday, the firm announced the launch of a feature that will allow parents and children under the age of 18 to request that photos be removed from the images tab or that thumbnails in search results no longer appear.

Although Google (GOOG) has previously provided options for consumers to request the removal of personal information and photos that fall into categories like "non-consensual explicit" or "financial, medical, and national ID," it is now expanding this to include images of children. 

"We realize that adolescents and teens face specific issues online," the business wrote in the blog post. "Especially when an image of them is unexpectedly visible on the internet." "We hope that this move will provide young people more control over their digital footprint and the locations of their photographs on Search."
