The BRs Section 4.9.3 say "The CA SHALL provide a process for Subscribers
to request revocation of their own Certificates. The process MUST be
described in the CA's Certificate Policy or Certification Practice
Statement. The CA SHALL maintain a continuous 24x7 ability to accept and
respond to revocation requests and Certificate Problem Reports." This
remains true no matter how many Subordinate CAs sit between the Subscriber
Certificate and the Root Certificate; the requirement applies to all
Subscriber Certificates.

Sectigo's Certificate Problem Reporting mechanisms can be found by locating
their CPS (https://www.sectigo.com/cps-repository), seeing that their
Section 4.9.3 points at their Section 1.5.2.1, and selecting any of the
three methods (revocation portal, ACME endpoint, or email) listed there.
