    I am vigilant about my personal information, and specifically do not want my home address or phone number visible online for safety reasons. I have tried their opt-out functions to no avail. Despite the instruction that a red box will appear to remove my record, the only red boxes are for a "complete report" or are ads. There is no way to complete this process on my own. I've tried two different browsers, and sent an email that was answer by a bot/autoresponder. I can't include a screenshot without sharing all of the personal information listed on what is supposed to be the opt-out page.I insist that all of my personal information be removed immediately.

    Hello,

    Unfortunately, we do not offer the option to remove another persons listing, as that would require us to remove that persons listing in its entirety. Because the other persons public profile belongs to them, they will need to submit an opt-out request for this information to be removed. We apologize for any inconvenience. They may contact us via email and request to have their information removed.

    My telephone number search pulls up history information on this website. This website does not have legal permission to do this. I am fearful for myself and my family. This puts me in danger and I never gave permission for my personal information to be public. To add, half the relatives that are named are not associated with me. I have people calling me very angry wondering how their information is linked to me. I have tried contacting the website via phone and no one answers. The automated system claims that there is a link at the bottom to opt out and confirm that your information does not be shared, there is no opt out link. I need my information deleted before more sites get my information. I will proceed with legal action if I am harmed due to my personal information being leaked on the fast background check website.

    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.

    When I looked up my phone number all of my information poped up on their website. I did not authorize this information to be shared. I never gave them permission to obtain, share, or publish my information. It has my full name, birthday, complete address and history, it even has everyone that I am related too. I did not authorize this information and this is a threat to my safety.
