Read the sector pageHow Google policies show up in different industries
Google applies the same content policies to every business. These examples show how each ground tends to appear in practice. A possible policy issue does not guarantee removal — Google evaluates reports and makes the final decision.
Fake engagement
A restaurant review describing a meal on a night the venue was closed, or a dental review from someone with no appointment history. The claim has to be checked against booking, POS or practice records before it is worth reporting.
Conflict of interest
A trades review posted by someone connected to a rival business, or a real-estate review written by a competing agency's staff. A documented connection matters far more than a suspicion.
Harassment and personal attacks
Reviews that name a hairdresser, practitioner or childcare educator and attack them personally rather than describing the service. Criticism of the service itself is generally allowed.
Personal information
A review that publishes a staff member's phone number, a tenant's address or details about a patient or child. Privacy-sensitive sectors should never add more private detail when reporting it.
Off-topic content
A hotel review that is really about a booking platform, a gym review about a neighbouring car park, or a review left on the wrong branch or the wrong business entirely.
Spam and repeated content
The same wording posted across several locations, or a burst of near-identical one-star reviews after a public dispute. These are assessed as a pattern rather than one at a time.

The same honest test, whatever the industry
Evelon Digital helps Australian businesses assess and pursue the removal of negative Google reviews. Every review is considered individually based on its content, context and available evidence — whether it was written by a customer, a competitor, a former employee or someone who cannot be identified at all.
We do not rule a review out because a genuine customer wrote it, and we do not pretend every negative customer review can be taken down. Honest feedback about a real experience usually stays published. What can be reported is content that engages a Google policy — false factual claims, personal attacks, private information, conflicts of interest, spam or content about a different business.
The initial assessment is free, there is no upfront removal payment, and any fee is agreed in writing before work begins. And because Google evaluates every report on its own platform, our promise covers the fee: if an accepted review is not successfully removed, you don't pay the removal fee.
