Remove Your Name from People Search Sites

Search your name on Google, and chances are you’ll see your phone number, home address, email, or even family members listed on people search sites like Whitepages, Spokeo, or TruePeopleSearch.

These platforms make your personal details available to anyone, sometimes for free, often for just a few dollars.

If you value privacy, getting delisted from these sites is essential.

Why People Search Sites Are a Problem

People search sites are a public-facing branch of the data broker industry.

They scrape personal information from public records, broker databases, and online activity, then publish it in searchable profiles.

That means:

• Anyone can look up your address, relatives, or phone number
• Scammers and spammers can use the info for phishing attacks
• Stalkers or harassers can find where you live
• Employers or strangers can access private details you never agreed to share

The worst part? If you’re listed on one of these sites, you’re probably listed on dozens of others too.

The Manual Removal Process

You can opt out manually, but it’s tedious process and this is by design. These people-search sites (and data brokers in general) like to make everything as difficult as possible.

If you’ve ever tried to do this manually, you’ll know that:

• Whitepages requires you to find your profile, copy the URL, and submit a request, sometimes with ID verification.
• Spokeo has its own opt-out page, but you’ll need to confirm by email, and recheck periodically to ensure your info doesn’t resurface.
• TruePeopleSearch asks you to submit a removal form, wait for review, and verify via email.

Now multiply that by 20, 50, or even 100 similar sites, and you’ll see why most people give up. Even after removals, your details often reappear when databases refresh.

The Smarter Way: Automated Removal

Instead of spending hours hunting for your profiles and filling out forms, an automated data removal service does the heavy lifting.

It scans dozens of people search sites (including Whitepages, Spokeo, and TruePeopleSearch), submits removal requests on your behalf, and monitors continuously to make sure your data stays suppressed.

This is the only way to do it; unless, of course, you plan on hiring a bespoke team of operators to work round the clock for you on your dime? Me? I’d rather just let a tool do all the work.

That way, you can not only monitor what’s happening in real-time and see what’s being removed but you’re also proactively protected from future exposure too.
