2) It tells you which of your URLs were refined by Google SafeSearch’s adult filter.

3) It shows you which content is not in Google as a consequence of it signifying as an ‘Outdated Content.’

Temporary removals

Here is where you can request temporary removals of specific URLs on sites you have verified. Google said there are two types of removal requests available. 

(1) Temporary remove URL will cover the URL from Google Search results for around six months and clean the cached copy of the page. 

(2) Clear cache URL removes the cached page and clears out the page information snippet in Search results until the page is dragged again.

Outdated content

The Outdated content section shows the data on removal requests initiated through the public Remove Outdated Content tool. This tool can be utilized by anyone (not just site owners) to update search results giving information that is no longer existing on a page.

Google said, “The SafeSearch filtering section in Search Console shows a history of pages on your site that was reported by Google users as adult content using the SafeSearch Suggestion tool.
