Child Exploitation and Online Protection

If you need help from CEOP (Child Exploitation and Online Protection Command), you can report concerns about online sexual abuse or exploitation through their online reporting tool. CEOP can provide guidance, investigate reports, and connect you with specialist support.

If you have an explicit photo of yourself or someone you know that you want removed, it’s important to act quickly: contact the platform where the image is hosted to request removal and use CEOP’s reporting service to alert the authorities. You can also get help from The Revenge Porn Helpline for confidential advice and support. You have the right to privacy and to have harmful images removed.
