Why we recommend this

Data brokers quietly sell your home address, phone number, and relatives' names to anyone willing to pay, which fuels scams and harassment. DeleteMe handles the tedious opt-out process for you across 750+ sites and keeps re-removing your data every quarter.

Do's and Don'ts

Do

  • Add all your past addresses and names for best results
  • Review your reports every quarter
  • Share the service with family members on the couple plan

Don't

  • Don't expect instant removal — it takes 7-30 days per site
  • Don't cancel after one year — brokers re-add data and you need ongoing coverage
  • Don't expect 100% removal — some data is legally required to remain public, like government records
