How to remove yourself from BeenVerified
BeenVerified is a people-search site. Here is exactly how to ask them to take your listing down. It is free, it takes a few minutes, and you do not need us to do it.
The steps
- Visit beenverified.com/faq/opt-out/
- Enter your first name, last name, and state
- Find your record in the results
- Click "opt out" next to your record
- Verify your email address
- Wait for confirmation email
What BeenVerified publishes about you
- Your full name
- Your home address
- Your phone number
- Your email address
- Criminal records with your name on them
- What you own
Then it happens again
Opting out of BeenVerified does not stop the next company, and it does not stop BeenVerified rebuilding your listing from a fresh property record or voter file later. That is not a trick; it is how the industry works. We have catalogued 710 of these companies, and being removed from one of them is one of 710.
Doing it by hand is genuinely possible. Keeping it done is the part almost nobody sustains, and that is the only honest reason to pay anyone for this.
Not sure which of them have you?
That is the part worth doing first, and it is free. One email address, about 15 seconds, no account and no card. You see which of your details have leaked and where they are published, and you can decide about everything else afterwards.
Or keep going by hand. Everything on this page works without paying us, and it is written so that it does.
