Report a Violation of your Privacy on Instagram

Please note that this channel is reserved for people to report potential violations of their privacy concerning their image on Instagram and Threads. If you're writing in about something else, please return to our Help Center to find the appropriate help or contact form.
If you need help because someone is threatening to share something you want to keep private, follow the steps outlined here.
We are unable to further process your report without a relevant link (URL) to the specific content (example: post, photo, video) you wish to report. Please locate the URL leading to the content you wish to report and return to this form to submit your request.

Thank you for reaching out to us regarding the image/video of your child that you would like removed from our platform. We understand your concern for your child's privacy and well-being online.
For privacy reasons, we require children 13 years or older to submit the request through this form themselves. We can then review the request.
Since you're an adult writing in from the US, we won't be able to remove this content for you using this form. For more information, please see our Community Guidelines.
Please review the following resources:
  • Learn how to report abuse on Instagram here.
  • Report violations and/or infringements of intellectual property here.
    • We are unable to remove content based on the request of someone who is not the legal guardian or parent of the child. The right to request removal of an image/video of a child lies solely with the child's legal guardian or parent.
    If you believe that the image/video of the child is in violation of the child's privacy, the child’s legal guardian or parent can use this form to submit a request. We may request documentation that establishes this status.
    We can investigate further if we receive a request from the child’s legal guardian or parent.
