False Online Record Removal 12 Step Program
New Policy on Images
Do not upload images containing what appears to small children even if such third parties are in the background and not mentioned in the report. Any picture that appears to contain a minor child will be deleted and the owner might get banned depending on the circumstances. When reporting a midget please state that the person is a midget and not a kid. Posting kids will be considered a TOU violation as of March 11, 2012.
An Easy 12 Step Program for Removing STD Carrier Reports
*NEW Option: STD Carriers is Part of the Post Almost Anything Reputation Improvement Services (PAARIS)
If you see a
STD Carrier Report on this website that you would like removed follow
these twelve (12) steps in the order that they appear:
1. Take the time to learn what STD Carriers is and how it operates. STD Carriers is
an event based real time business intelligence system that services a
network of online users. Users who
sign up for a free membership can use the service in accordance with the terms they
agree to at sign up. They can then publish a report(s) just as easily as you can
post an ad on a classified ad site and post comments about reports just as easily
as you can post comments on friend's Facebook wall. The site itself is a automated
program that stores and distributes information 24 hours a day and is administered
using a decentralized command structure in which each member operates as an independent
unit in full control of their activities. A member can only be suspended if found
to be in violation of the website Terms of Use (TOU).
2. Ask yourself, is the information posted in such a way that a reasonable person
could believe it to be true? If the answer is no
contact us and if we believe that
no reasonable person could possible believe the information reported then it will
be removed as soon as possible. A past example of this would be a Mr. "Snacks Jackson"
that included the picture of a vending machine. If the information is presented
in a way that a reasonable person could believe to be true continue to step 3.
3. Go to the International STD Carrier Registry
and find the profile in question. This can be done easily using the search engine
for the database located between the disclaimer and the data grid. The engine allows
you to query the list by country, state, city, last name, and first name. After
hitting search you will get the results (if any) of your query. You can also sort
the data in the grid by clicking on the column headers and see different pages using
the paging controls at the top and bottom of the grid. Click on the Details Link
to view the profile in details
4. Post a comment about the report. This can be done easily by scrolling down to
the bottom of the details view just below the video field. The video field contains
either an embedded video or previews for movies about contagious diseases. If logged
in you will see text that says "Post Comment" just above comments that have been
made or text explaining that comments can be made. If you are not logged in you
will see a login control. Click on "Post Comment" text and a form will open up allowing
you to post a comment. When the comment is posted it will immediately appear on
the top of the comment grid. This comment system is designed to encourage an open
dialog about reports and to provide people listed with a place to express their side of the story.
5. Contact the publisher. Any report made after June 4, 2009 requires that the publisher
be a registered member of STDCarriers.com. At the top of the report beneath the
"Carrier Report Number" you will see "Created By" followed by the user name of the
publisher. Click on the user name and you will be linked to the Member Information
Page that contains a link to a form for contacting the publisher. If your attempt to
contact the poster is unsuccessful because the email address provided does not exist
contact us. If we determine that the user
signed up with a fake email address that user would have already violated the Terms of Use(TOU) when they signed up by providing
false information. Accounts found to be in violation of the
TOU will be suspened. All comments and posting of a suspended account will
be blocked from view with all infomation about the user of the suspended account
including I.P. addresses used by that user will be provided to anyone listed by
that user upon request. This same rule applies to unauthorized use of someone elses
email address if we receive a reply that they did not create that account. If the
users email address is valid then proceed to step 6.
6. Are you the subject of the report? If not your role in the record removal process
is over. Please do not email us with personal stories regarding the subject of the
report (ex: "I've known subject X for Y amount of years and they don't have Z").
We do not know them personally and cannot pass judgment of their character. It the
report is about you proceed to step 7.
7. Go to a doctor’s office and get tested for the Sexually Transmitted Disease (or
Diseases) in some cases that you were reported for having. For Genital Herpes (Herpes
Simplex Virus 2 - HSV2), Hepatitis C, Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), and Acquired
Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) this can be done with a simple blood test that
will detect antibodies if you are infected, if your results are clean then the profile
will be removed. For HPV and Genital Warts there is no blood test, but they can
be frequently detected by other means, clean screening results for either will be
satisfactory for the removal of a profile. The results MUST come from a doctor's office and NOT from any type of at home testing service. If you need help finding a lab you can use the Lab Locator at Health Testing Centers.
8. Have your doctor send your clean test results in an official sealed envelope
to:
STDCarriers.com
P.O. Box 86653
Portland, OR 97286
*Special option for attorneys. Licensed bar members are now allowed to submit results
electronically on behalf of their client they provide proof of their identity
and that they are licensed to practice law.
*Special option for people whose providers use MyChart. If your doctor uses MyChart you can elect to share the record with us via the MyChart Share Everywhere feature. Share Everywhere lets patients choose to share a record once with anyone. It works by giving you a code that you give us that lets us view the record just once. To learn more please read Patients Control Sharing Their Medical Records.
DO NOT USE CERTIFIED MAIL: STD Carriers does not answer certified mail notices. Everything sent via certified mail is automatically returned to sender.
DO NOT REMOVE FROM ORIGINAL ENVELOPE: All documents must be sent in an original
sealed envelope. This means do not open results you receive and do not put them
in a new envelope before sending them to us. If you must have the results sent to
you first have an original copy sent to us second.
DO NOT USE AT HOME TESTING: For chain of custody reasons we will not accept at home STD tests. There are businesses that advertise services where you can send them a sample to be tested. Obviously that sample could be from anyone so that is not sufficient. That is not to say that at home testing is useless because it could provide a way to know if you should even bother going to a physical testing location.
9. Contact us to let us know that test results
are on their way. This will cause the post office box to be checked more frequently.
10. When we receive and review the test results the report will be removed as soon
as possible and you will receive the I.P. Address information necessary to help
you track down the person responsible. Delays may occur for reasons including, but
not necessarily limited to the following:
- Any technical difficulties that prevent us from being able to access the internet.
- Bad weather that prevents us from being able to reach the post office box or a
lag between when results arrive and the box is checked.
- Holidays both traditional and organization specific in which no member is
available to perform site maintenance.
- Emergencies involving members of the organization or the community such as serious
accidents, illnesses, terrorist attacks, natural disasters, global thermonuclear
war, etc.
11. Wait a few days and don’t panic if you still see links to the report show up
on Google, Yahoo, Bing, and other search engines. The search engine bots will attempt
to recrawl the report and will be redirected to Celebrities with STDs at which point they will automatically delete the old record.
We do not control the rate at which the site is crawled.
12. (Optional) Find whoever listed you and do to them as you would like. You can
file a lawsuit for defamation, have them arrested for criminal harassment, and turn
the tables on them by listing their deeds online using the Cyber Bullies Exposed! Anti-Cyberbullying Harassment Reporting System.
