15 data brokers · every opt-out free
See what the internet knows about you. Then take it back.
People-search sites build a profile of you from public records and sell it. Each one has an opt-out. Each one hides it. These guides go straight to the form, tell you what to expect, and are honest about the part nobody mentions: it comes back.

Start with the four that share one form. Intelius, TruthFinder, Instant Checkmate and US Search are all PeopleConnect. One suppression request clears all four. Do that first - it is the best return on five minutes you will get.
Or hand it off
Every opt-out on this site is free. The catch is there are hundreds of these sites, most of them re-list you within months, and each one wants its own form and its own email confirmation. If you would rather not do it yourself, Online Reputation Repair does the broker cleanup for you.
RepCheckr is affiliated with Online Reputation Repair, a paid removal service. Every manual opt-out on this site is free and works without it.
