This platform is a directory that aggregates public records and commercial sources and displays a searchable database. It may collect data points as sources refresh, and it can provide in-depth information in one place, which may feel like major data. It may also include information from public sources and information from Ohio.
Common data you may find:
- Names (and known aliases)
- Current and past addresses
- Age or year of birth
- Possible relatives/household links
- Email addresses
- Property and real-estate references
- Voter registrations
- Other personal details
Step-by-Step Guide
Search for your record
Find your name in the provided form. Copy the record link from the browser bar so you can paste it into the opt-out form. If you take screenshots, blur your personal information and any identifiers before saving. Tip: If you see several matches, compare the city or county to pick the right one.



Submit your identifiers (email/phone + CAPTCHA)
Scroll to the footer and select the Opt Out page. Paste the record link into the field. Enter what the form asks for, such as your name and email. If prompted, solve the CAPTCHA and click submit. You should see an on-screen confirmation. If you store proof images, redact personal information before saving. Tip: If you hit an error, clear cookies and try again in another browser once.


Verify via code or link (email/SMS)
Check your inbox. If you receive a code or link, complete it right away. If nothing arrives, check Spam/Promotions and verify that your mailbox is not blocking new senders. Save the confirmation email for later. Tip: A dedicated inbox can help keep things organized.
Confirm deletion / Do-Not-Sell request
Save any receipt or reference number and note the date. Tip: Avoid unrelated marketing unsubscribe controls.

Track confirmation & timeline
Re-check the public entry after a few days. Some third-party write-ups say results can appear within 24 to 48 hours; others mention within 48 hours. However, updates can take longer. Keep your proof. Set a 3–6 month reminder to re-check and re-send if needed.
Timelines, Verification & What to Expect
Most requests show an on-page message right away, and many also send a confirmation email for verification. If your opt-out request needs verification, complete it by code or link, then allow 1–3 days for updates. If nothing changes after 3 days, repeat the online opt-out process once and keep both confirmations. If you see an on-page note like “information removed,” save it as proof.
Edge Cases & Troubleshooting
- No access to the original email/phone: use a current inbox/number and add a short note explaining the mismatch.
- “Record not found”: try a different spelling, nearby city, or search the index instead.
- Verification image or submission errors: disable VPN/ad blockers, refresh, and try again later.
- Verification code not arriving: check Spam/Promotions, then resend once.
- Form rejects the request by region (EU/UK/CA): use the contact option and ask for the correct path.
- Account deletion vs. public listing removal confusion: removing an entry is separate from closing an account.
- Re-submitting after a failed attempt: verify the link and try one more time.
- Inaccurate: prioritize removal first, then ask about corrections; cancel any unrelated email subscriptions separately.
Will my data reappear?
It can. An entry may return when aggregators, partner feeds, or resellers refresh data. The safest approach is to keep your personal confirmation emails and set a reminder every 3–6 months to re-check and re-send your request if needed. If the same entry appears on other data broker sites, handle those too, since data brokers like these may rely on overlapping sources.
