Take your name off people-search sites.
Free, step-by-step opt-outs for the sites that publish your address, phone number and relatives, and a private tracker that remembers what you've done and tells you when to check again.
No account. Your list stays in your browser; we never see it.
How it works
Find where you're listed.
Enter your name in the tracker and its Check now buttons search each site for you, so you only do the opt-outs you need.
Opt out site by site, in order.
The list starts with the sites that cover the most others: 14 opt-outs reach about 20 people-search sites. Then a few that work behind the scenes: a marketing broker, LexisNexis, credit offers and Google results.
Check again every few months.
These sites re-list people when new records arrive. The tracker shows what's due and can add reminders to your calendar.
In California? Also send one request through the state's free DROP platform: it asks hundreds of registered data brokers to delete your data at once. It doesn't reach every people-search listing, so do the list too.
The list
Work from the top. Opt-out links were last checked between September 11 and November 11, 2026. Each guide gives its own date and where its link comes from.

Why do it yourself?
Paid services such as DeleteMe, Incogni and Optery send these same opt-outs for a yearly fee. They save time, but they can't do anything you can't do yourself for free. OptOutTracker doesn't sell a service or take a cut from anyone, so the list is ordered by what helps you most. If you'd rather pay someone, compare the paid services.
