OptOutTracker

My opt-out list

Saved only in this browser. Nothing you enter is sent anywhere. Closing a private window, clearing your browser data, or a week of using Safari without a visit erases it, so keep a backup. Why lists disappear

Have a backup?

How this works
  1. Enter your name below. The Check now buttons use it to search each site for you through Google.
  2. Press Check now on each site. No results, or none that are you? Mark it Not listed.
  3. Opt out where you're listed. Press Open opt-out page, send the request, then mark it Requested. Each site's Steps say what to do.
  4. Back up your list. It's saved only in this browser. Back up and Restore are at the bottom of the page.

Name to look for

Used for the Check now buttons, which search Google for this name on each site. Saved only in this browser, and sent to Google only when you press Check now. If you're signed in to Google, it's saved in your Google activity.

Reminders, backup and other devices

The calendar file has one all-day reminder for each follow-up and re-check. Download it again after you update the list. Back up to a file you can find later, such as one in your email or cloud drive.

On iPhone or iPad: Safari erases a site's saved data after about a week of using Safari without visiting it. Add OptOutTracker to your Home Screen (Share, then Add to Home Screen) and open your list from there. The Home Screen app keeps its own copy, so if you started in Safari, back up there and restore in the app.

On a shared computer, anyone using this browser can open your list. Back it up, then clear it when you're done.
