RemoveMe

Data brokers are companies that collect, compile, and sell personal information about consumers. They gather data from public records, social media, online purchases, surveys, and other sources to create detailed profiles. These profiles are then sold to marketers, employers, insurance companies, and anyone willing to pay for access to your personal information.

Your exposed personal information can be used for identity theft, fraud, stalking, harassment, unwanted marketing, employment discrimination, insurance premium increases, and targeted scams. Removing this information reduces these risks and gives you control over your digital privacy and personal safety.

RemoveMe’s service works in three phases: (1) Discovery: our technology scans 115 data broker sites to find your information, (2) Removal: our experts submit opt-out requests and verify successful removal, and (3) Monitoring: we continuously scan for your information reappearing and automatically remove it, while you receive regular reports throughout the process.

We remove all personally identifiable, publicly available information, including names, addresses (current and historical), phone numbers, email addresses, age, family member information, property values, occupation details, court records, photos, and other items that could compromise your privacy and safety.

We actively monitor and remove information from 115 data broker websites, people search engines, and specialized databases. This includes major sites like Spokeo, WhitePages, and BeenVerified, plus hundreds of smaller specialized brokers.

Most removals begin within 48 hours of enrollment, with 70% of sites removing your information within the first 30 days. Complex cases may take up to 90 days. You’ll receive regular updates throughout the process.

Yes! You’ll receive detailed status showing exactly what information was found on which sites, removal status, and ongoing monitoring results. Our transparent process lets you track progress every step of the way.

Data brokers often create inaccurate profiles by combining information from multiple sources incorrectly. They may merge data from people with similar names, addresses, or family connections. We remove these incorrect records because they still contain some of your real information and could be used to piece together your actual details.

Data brokers continuously collect new information, so removed data may reappear. That’s why RemoveMe provides continuous monitoring and automatic re-removal to keep your information private long-term.

Our monitoring system adds new sites and data brokers all the time to our service. If you are a subscriber to our service, once we discover a site, we immediately begin removal processes on your behalf.

There can be a delay between when we receive removal confirmation and when the information actually disappears from search results due to caching, different database systems, or the site’s update schedule. Additionally, some sites may have multiple records for the same person. If you continue seeing information after 30 days, please contact us for manual verification and re-submission.

RemoveMe focuses on US data brokers, which represent the vast majority of English-language data broker activity.

Manual removal is time-intensive (200+ hours initially, with ongoing effort required), often ineffective due to tricky opt-out processes, and impossible to maintain long-term. RemoveMe automates the entire process with expert-level effectiveness you can’t achieve individually.

We use bank-level encryption and security protocols to protect your information. We only collect the minimum data necessary for removals and never share your information with third parties. All data is securely stored and handled by vetted privacy professionals.
