AI model removal

Someone trained an AI model on you. Remove it, free.

A LoRA, a checkpoint, or a voice clone of your likeness can generate endless new content of you, and every download spreads it further. The hosts have removal doors for exactly this, and they are on this page.

You do not need a lawyer to file either claim. You need the model's link.

Why this works

1
One model, thousands of images
Removing one model prevents thousands of downstream generations. It is the highest-leverage takedown you can file, so file it first.
Civitai
A purpose-built likeness claim
Civitai's Real People rules let the person depicted, or their legal representative, claim their likeness and remove every model and image that uses it.
$0
Every claim is free
The Civitai form, the Hugging Face email, and our takedown tool cost nothing. You never pay to stop a model of yourself.

Three steps, all free

The removal, step by step.

Step one

File Civitai's Likeness Claim Request

Civitai's own form for a real person to claim their likeness. It covers models trained on you, LoRAs and checkpoints, and the images that depict you. Choose 'Remove all content depicting the likeness', say the model uses your likeness without consent, and add anything that shows you are this person, like links to your real profiles. The embedded form takes up to 30 seconds to appear; if it fails, email digital-likeness@civitai.com or use the flag icon on the model page.

Step two

Email Hugging Face

Hugging Face has no webform for this, the door is email. Write to dmca@huggingface.co with the model's link, say you are the person depicted and consent was never given, and ask for the repository's removal. Every model page also has a Report button that flags it to their moderation team, so use both.

Email dmca@huggingface.co →
Step three

Take down what the model already made

Images generated from the model spread to other platforms, and each platform has its own takedown lane: identity forms, privacy forms, host abuse. Our free takedown tool routes each link to the right door, pre-fills the forms, and files with you, in your name.

Before you file

What to say, and what counts.

What to say in any claim

Two sentences do the work: you are the person depicted, and consent was never given. Add the model's link and something that shows you are this person. You never have to explain why you want it gone.

If the model makes intimate content of you

Civitai's rules ban sexualized depictions of real people outright, so the same likeness claim covers it. Then register the images with StopNCII: it fingerprints them on your own device, and partner platforms block matching uploads before they appear.

A fictional character is different

This page is for models of you, a real person, made without your consent. Models of fictional characters, or a model you licensed yourself, are a different question, and these forms are not for them.

The model came from somewhere

A model is trained from photos of you that were already collected, and the images it generates spread past the site that hosts it. Our free face scan searches by your face, not your name, and shows every page where it appears, so you can work through the doors above with the whole list in hand. Your original photo never leaves your device.
