What it asks you to verify

The form requires your state, name, city, ZIP code, an email address checked with its "Email Validator" and your birth year, plus a human check. MyLife says these details help it remove the correct record when several profiles share the same or a similar name, and that it emails a confirmation when the deletion is complete.

What the opt-out covers

MyLife says any profile listing on its website that matches your information will be permanently removed, and it will unsubscribe your email and delete any accounts registered with that email. Its privacy policy notes that some portions of a removed profile may remain in its backup systems.
