Bing, Microsoft's search engine, is widely used to find information online. Search results can also cause problems: illegal content, sites spreading disinformation, links to harmful or misleading material, non-transparent advertising, or indexed images and videos that infringe rights or contain material shared without permission.
You report this content to Microsoft first. If Microsoft does not act on your notice, or removes your content from the results or reduces its visibility, and Microsoft's internal complaint system did not change the decision, Article 21 of the Digital Services Act (DSA) lets you ask ADR Center, a body certified by AGCOM, for a free independent review through its ODS service. Independent experts examine Microsoft's decision and issue a non-binding decision.
