Takedown request
Use this page to ask us to remove a business or product listing from pasal.biz — whether you're the shop owner, a copyright holder, or someone reporting incorrect or illegal content.
Updated 2026-05-22
Email [email protected] with the URL you want removed and one sentence explaining why. We respond to every takedown email and act on legitimate requests as quickly as we can.
I'm the shop owner of an auto-listed business
pasal.biz may have added your shop to the index from a public business directory or by crawling your sitemap. If you don't want to be listed:
- Email [email protected] from the email address published on your shop's website.
- Include either (a) a link to your pasal.biz business page or (b) your shop's website URL.
- Optionally, add
User-agent: PasalBot/Disallow: /to yourrobots.txtso we stop crawling on future passes — see the crawler policy page for recipes.
There's no fee, no minimum notice period, and no negotiation — if the email comes from your shop's domain, we remove the listing.
Alternative: if you'd rather keep the listing but control it yourself (set sync cadence, hide individual products, edit the profile), see the claim a listing section on the PasalBot page. Claiming and delisting are both free.
I'm a copyright or trademark holder
If a pasal.biz listing infringes your copyright or trademark — most commonly photos that were taken from your site or product titles that copy your registered brand — email [email protected] with:
- The pasal.biz URL(s) you want removed.
- The original work or registered mark — link or attachment.
- A short statement that you are the rights holder or authorized to act on their behalf, and that you believe the listed use is not authorized.
- Your name, organization (if applicable), and email for follow-up.
We act on good-faith takedown requests for indexed third-party content the same way a search engine does — we remove the pasal.biz listing and decline to relist. We are not party to any dispute between you and the operator of the source shop; that remains between you and them on their own site.
I'm reporting incorrect, harmful, or illegal content
For listings that are:
- Counterfeit or knockoffs.
- Regulated items being sold without a licence (alcohol, tobacco, pharmaceuticals, weapons).
- Scams, fake shops, or shops that take money and don't deliver.
- Sexually explicit content, content involving minors, hate content, or anything illegal under Nepali law.
Email [email protected] with the URL and a short description. For criminal matters we will also cooperate with Nepali law enforcement requests properly served on us.
What we cannot do
- Mediate transactions. If a shop took your payment and didn't deliver, pasal.biz never received the money — we are a search engine, not a marketplace, for indexed listings. We can delist the shop after a report; we can't refund you. See Pasal is the index, not the seller for why.
- Remove content from the source site. A delisting on pasal.biz removes the listing from our index; it has no effect on the original product page on the shop's own website. You'd need to contact the shop directly for that.
- Guarantee a specific turnaround time. We aim to respond promptly and act on legitimate requests as soon as we reasonably can. Complex disputes (counter-notice, contested ownership) take longer.
What we will reply with
A short confirmation when we act on the request, including which URLs were removed. If we decline (rare — usually because the request is from a third party who isn't the shop owner or rights holder), we'll explain why.
