GladIKnow Opt Out Guide

GladIKnow can show a people search listing with your name, address, and phone number, which can increase exposure and raise privacy concerns. As a data broker, it may aggregate information from public records and commercial sources into a searchable database.

Checklist:

• Open the official form
• Enter identifiers
• Complete verification
• Confirm via code/link
• Save the receipt email

GladIKnow is a publicly available people search service. Its directory uses public records and other lawful sources to make consumer results accessible on its website. 

Common data you may find:

• Names and known aliases
• Phone numbers
• Current and past addresses
• Relatives or household links
• Property and real-estate records (if available)
• Court or civil filings (if available)
• Professional credentials (if available)

Step-by-Step Guide

Open the official opt-out form

Go to the homepage and scroll to the footer. Click “Opt Out” to open the Privacy portal. On the next screen, look for basic fields like First Name, Last Name, State, and Email. If you came from a listing page, you can also use that page’s footer link to reach the same portal. Before saving any screenshot, blur or redact personal information, including your address. Tip: If the portal loops or loads blank, refresh once and try a different browser window.

Submit your identifiers (email/phone + CAPTCHA)

Enter the identifiers. Solve the CAPTCHA to finish in one attempt. Avoid typos and extra spaces. If you capture a screenshot for your records, redact names and numbers. Tip: If you see an error message, wait a minute and try again rather than repeating rapidly.

Verify via code or link (email)

After the form is accepted, watch for a verification message sent to your email. Open it and follow the instructions. Do this soon after it arrives, since codes can expire. If you don’t see the message, check Spam and Promotions. Tip: Copy the date and time into your notes so you can follow up later.

Confirm deletion/Do Not Sell request

See an on-page note that your submission was received. Look for checkboxes, a “Continue” button, and a final review screen. If something looks stuck, use the Contact Us link in the footer.

Track confirmation & timeline

Create a small tracking note with the date you started, the listing URL, and a screenshot with sensitive fields blurred. Save the receipt email in a folder so you can find it later. After 7-14 days, search again on the website to check whether the profile page is gone. If you still see it, wait a day and repeat the same form flow one time, using the same identifiers. Tip: Keep your notes in one place, since multiple services may show similar listings, and you may want to repeat removals every few months.

Timelines, Verification & What to Expect

You may see an on-page notice right away and an email receipt soon after you complete the form. Most updates show within 7-14 days, depending on record matching and support volume. Some flows send a second message that asks you to verify a link or code. Keep the receipt email and the listing URL so you can compare later. If nothing changes after 14 days, use the Contact Us page and include all the data to complete the process.

Edge Cases & Troubleshooting

• No access to the original email/phone: use the form with your best match, then contact customer care for options.
• “Record not found”: broaden your search and try nearby cities, then open the closest listing.
• Form submission errors: refresh, clear cookies, and try again later.
• Verification message not arriving: check Spam, wait 10 minutes, then retry once.
• Form rejects the form by region (EU/UK/CA): email [email protected] and ask what’s available.
• Account deletion vs. public listing takedown confusion: cancel a subscription separately; use opt out of gladiknow.com for listing takedown.

Will my data reappear?

Re-listing can happen when data brokers continuously refresh their database, when aggregators update partner feeds, or when resellers republish entries across the data on the internet. To reduce repeat exposure, keep receipt emails, set a 3–6 month reminder, and remove your info again quickly if you see it return. If it reappears, repeat the same form flow and save your dates. A quick re-check every season is usually enough. It also helps to check information from other directories, because data broker sites like GladIKnow may share similar records.

Manual vs Assisted Removal

Manual:

• Pros: More control over each step; clear record of what you shared; easy to repeat every 3–6 months.
• Cons: Time-consuming, especially across many websites; you must track receipts and re-check pages; higher chance of missing a re-listed record.

Assisted:

• Pros: Faster, less manual work; central tracking and reminders.
• Cons: Paid service; you still review results for accuracy.
