How to remove yourself from BeenVerified

Steps

1. Open BeenVerified's opt-out search and look up your name and state.
2. Pick your record and enter your email address.
3. Open the confirmation email and click the link. The removal isn't done until you do.
4. If your home also shows up as a property record, use the separate property opt-out at beenverified.com/app/optout/address-search.
5. BeenVerified's company also runs PeopleLooker and PeopleSmart. Some guides say this opt-out removes you from both, but a test in August 2026 found each keeps its own list, so search PeopleLooker and PeopleSmart for your name afterward.

If that doesn't work

BeenVerified allows one opt-out per email address, so a second record may need a different address.

Afterward

Mark it as requested in your tracker. Once it's gone, search beenverified.com for your name again in about 3 months: sites like this re-list people when new records come in.

Still showing in Google?

Once your listing is gone, Google can keep showing the old result, with your details in the preview, until it visits the page again. To speed that up, right-click the result, choose Copy Link Address, and paste the link into Google's free Refresh Outdated Content tool. It works once the page itself is gone.
