Executives and founders
Leaders whose name is searched by investors, journalists and activists, and whose home address should not be part of that search.
Data broker removal service for executives, families and leadership teams
Home addresses, phone numbers and relatives of your executives sit on dozens of people search sites, one search away from anyone. Most sites offer a free opt-out, and you can do it yourself with our data broker opt-out directory. We do it at scale: dozens of sites, every listing we find and every family member in scope, then we keep checking for new listings.

Who this is for.
We remove personal information from data brokers for organizations and the people they protect, not for private individuals acting alone.
Companies protecting their leadership
Security, legal and HR teams that want the home details of the board and the senior team off people search sites, as one program.
Family offices
Offices that cover the principal, the spouse, adult children and household staff, where one profile lists all of them as relatives.
Public figures
Talent, creators and public speakers with an audience that includes people who should never know where they live.
Why opting out once is rarely enough.
People search sites build profiles from phone directories, property records, court records and other sources, and each profile links to relatives, past addresses and phone numbers. For an executive, one listing is enough to turn a public role into a home visit. Read what data brokers are and how they work for the background.
Each site has its own form, its own verification and its own rules. Spokeo removes one listing URL at a time, BeenVerified handles one record online and the rest by email, and several sites warn that new public records can create a new listing later. Our guide on how to opt out of data brokers covers the manual route. When the list runs to dozens of sites and several people, a data broker removal service saves the time and keeps the record.
- Every listing found, removed through the site’s own opt-out and documented
- Sister sites and related networks covered, not just the best-known names
- Spouses, children and household members included in the same program
- Regular rescans, with new listings sent for removal as they appear
What people search sites expose.
These are the listings our clients most often ask us to remove, and why they matter more for people in a visible role.
Home addresses and address history
Current and past addresses, often with property details, that let anyone find where an executive or a principal sleeps.
Phone numbers and personal email
Mobile numbers and private email addresses that open the door to harassment, impersonation and targeted phishing.
Relatives and household members
Profiles that list a spouse, children or parents as possible relatives, exposing people who never chose a public role.
Listings that come back
Sites that receive new public records can create a fresh listing after an opt-out, so a profile removed in spring can return by autumn.
Aggregated profiles used for doxxing
A single page that joins address, phone, relatives and photos, ready to be posted in a forum or a thread aimed at your leadership.

The US privacy rules behind data broker removal.
No single federal law makes people search sites delete a profile. A few state laws do give real leverage, and each has a narrow scope. This is general information, not legal advice.
The California right to delete has limits
Under the CCPA, a consumer can ask a business to delete personal information the business collected from the consumer, and the business must also notify its service providers and the third parties it sold the data to. Personal information does not include publicly available information, such as data lawfully made available from government records, which is why sites like Spokeo describe their listing removal as voluntary. [1] [2] [3]
The Delete Act and DROP for California residents
Since August 1, 2026, a data broker must access the state’s deletion mechanism at least once every 45 days, delete the personal information of the consumers who used it, and then keep deleting it every 45 days without selling or sharing new information about them. DROP, the state’s platform, is free, covers over 600 registered data brokers and lets a California resident submit a request for another resident. The agency says a status update can take up to 90 days. [4] [5]
Data brokers must register in four states
California requires every business that meets the definition of a data broker to register each year between January 1 and 31, and the state agency says Oregon, Texas and Vermont also require registration. A registry shows who is a data broker, but it does not cover every site that publishes personal details. [6] [7]
Daniel’s Law for judges, prosecutors and officers in New Jersey
New Jersey law bars a person or business from disclosing the home address or unpublished home telephone number of a covered person on the Internet within 10 business days of a written notice. Covered persons include active, former and retired judicial officers, law enforcement officers, child protective investigators and prosecutors, and immediate family members in the same household. [8]

How our data broker removal process works.
A confidential program for each person you want covered, from the first search to ongoing checks.
- 01
Exposure scan
We search the people search sites for every person in scope, with name variants, past addresses and relatives, and send you a written list of the listings we find.
- 02
Opt-out requests on every site
We file each removal through the site’s own opt-out route, including the separate forms for sister sites and related services, and handle the email and phone verification steps with you.
- 03
Confirmation
We check that each listing is gone from the site and record the date, so you have a clear record of what was removed and what is still pending.
- 04
Rescans and new listings
We search again on a regular schedule and send new listings for removal, because many sites say a fresh public record can create a new profile.

Questions about our Data broker removal service for executives, families and leadership teams service.
Cannot find what you are looking for? Send us your question and we answer within one business day.
Send your questionCan we remove personal information from data brokers ourselves?
Yes. Most people search sites offer an opt-out, and several of them, such as BeenVerified and PeopleFinders, say it is free. Our data broker opt-out directory links to each official page and explains what it asks for. A service makes sense when you need to cover many sites, several people and the listings that appear after the first round.
Will removed listings stay off people search sites?
Not always, and no honest provider can promise it. Spokeo, PeopleFinders, FastPeopleSearch and TruePeopleSearch each say new public records can bring your information back in a new listing. That is why we rescan on a schedule and send each new listing for removal.
What is a sister site, and why does it matter for opt-outs?
Many people search sites belong to the same company and share data. The PeopleConnect suppression tool covers several sites at once, including TruthFinder, Intelius and USSearch, while Spokeo says Thatsthem.com needs its own opt-out. Knowing which removal covers which site is a large part of the work.
Can you cover the executive’s spouse, children and household staff?
Yes, with their consent. People search profiles list relatives next to each other, so removing only the executive often leaves the address visible through a family member’s listing. We scope each engagement by the people the company or family office wants covered.
Does data broker removal also clean up Google results?
Partly. Removing a listing takes away the page a search result points to, but Whitepages notes that search engines may keep showing cached data for up to 30 days in some cases. Pages outside people search sites, such as posts or threads that repeat an address, need a separate removal request.
How is a data broker removal engagement priced?
It depends on the number of people in scope and how often you want us to rescan. Content removal is billed only when the URL is verified offline, every client signs an NDA, and so do we. Send us the names and we answer within one business day.
Take your leadership off people search sites.
Tell us who you want covered and we review their exposure for free: which sites list them, what each opt-out needs and a clear plan for the removals and rescans.
