    Hello,

    All of the information on our website is from public record databases. Every person aged 18 and older can have a public record. This information is collected on a County, City, State and federal level and can also come from reporting information during normal every day activities such as grocery store club cards, magazine subscriptions, voter registration, warranty cards, even fishing licenses, and forms you fill out when browsing the internet. There are thousands of ways this information gets reported.

    If you would like your records removed, please submit your request by using our online removal tool, linked below. We will also endeavor to block future public records that belong to the same person, but identifying these future records is not 100% accurate and cannot be guaranteed.

    Im attempting to opt-out of my information being sold and listed on this website. I attempted to call the number listed on their opt-out page: ************** which takes me to an automated system. It claims press 1 to opt out, when this is selected the machine states invalid selection when pressing 0 in an attempt to contact a operator it states no one is available its 10:30am pst on a Monday. Ive submitted my email on their opt-out page and then received a motivation stating they do not have my email listed in their records, yet is was displayed when attempting to see what information they have on me. All very sketchy and making it too difficult to opt-out.
