Learn how personal information becomes searchable and what steps reduce exposure risk over time.

Understanding the problem

Brokers aggregate records from public and commercial sources, then republish profile data at scale.

Name, address history, phone numbers, relative associations, and household-level identifiers.

Re-ingestion cycles and partner feeds can republish records after previous removals.

Start with a baseline. Use the free exposure scan to identify high-level public visibility.

Submit verified opt-outs across priority brokers and record each request path.

Re-check and re-submit as listings reappear through broker refresh cycles.

Limit future data leakage through account settings and registration hygiene.
