Step-by-Step Guide

Open the privacy page

To begin the procedure, go to the BeenVerified homepage and use the link in the footer labeled “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information.” Then, open the opt-out page. Look for a simple search box and a button that starts the flow. Tip: If you save screenshots, blur identifiers and remove your personal information before sharing.

Search for your record and proceed

On the opt-out page, search for your name and state. Locate the right listing in the BeenVerified database. Review the results and compare the age range, city, and known relatives. When you find the closest match, click “Proceed to Opt Out.” This is one of the simple steps to remove your info from the search results. Tip: If you see multiple close matches, pick the one with the most accurate location history. 

Submit your email and complete CAPTCHA verification

Reach the opt-out form. Enter your email address and complete the CAPTCHA. You can provide an email address you control or a disposable email address. If the page shows a checkbox, tick it only after you read it. Next, fill out an opt-out form, then click the “Send Verification Email” button. Tip: If CAPTCHA fails, reload once and try again before changing devices.

Confirm deletion

Next, you should receive a verification email from BeenVerified. Open it and verify opt-out to confirm deletion. Tip: Check your email inbox before you request an opt-out again. You may be redirected to a confirmation page. 

Track confirmation & timeline

You’ll receive a final confirmation email. Save it as proof that you were able to remove your data from BeenVerified. Write down the date you confirmed. Tip: Store your proof in a folder so it’s easy to find later. 

Timelines, Verification & What to Expect

Most BeenVerified opt-out request updates arrive within 1–3 days. A follow-up message will indicate that your opt-out request is in progress. If nothing changes after 3 days, check your email. Then, contact BeenVerified and resubmit. If you still do not get a response, use the site’s help options and try again after a short wait. 

Edge Cases & Troubleshooting

• No access to the original inbox: use a different address. However, keep notes so you can repeat opt-outs later.
• “Record not found”: broaden your search and try again later.
• CAPTCHA errors: reload the page, clear cache, and try a different browser.
• Link expired: repeat the confirmation step from the email and try again once.
• Region issues (EU/UK/CA): some forms may block access; use available privacy contact options.
• Account vs listing confusion: remove yourself from BeenVerified listings without deleting a BeenVerified account.
• Subscription help: if you need to cancel, follow the account “Cancel My Account” flow.
• Do-not-sell wording: you can opt out of BeenVerified by using the “Do Not Sell/Share” flow via the footer link.

Will my data reappear?

Listings can reappear when data broker sites refresh from partner feeds, aggregators, resellers, or new crawls across online sources. The re-listing risk is usually medium. Keep your proof emails, set a 3–6 month reminder for opt-outs, and monitor and remove repeats to improve your online presence and protect your privacy. If a record returns, repeat the same steps quickly and save your new confirmation.
