Privacy Monitor
Your address and phone number can be easily found on the web. We scan common people-search sites to find your information, and help you request to opt-out.

What is a data broker?
Data brokers gather information about consumers from a variety of sources, and people-search sites (a type of data broker) like Whitepages or Spokeo make that information searchable on their websites.
Sources for the information can include:
Public records
Public information about you on the Web
Warranty registration information
Online activity
Web browsing activity
Social media profiles
Purchase history (many stores sell this data)
This data is all put together, or aggregated, and connected to individuals’ profiles on the site. Depending on the site, visitors may be able to look up some information for free, and pay for additional information.

How can I remove my personal information from people search sites?
Privacy Monitor can help
With Privacy Monitor, popular data broker sites are scanned for personal info, so members can request to opt-out.
All in one place, you can see a list of sites where your information is displayed, find out how to opt-out, review your opt-out requests, and re-visit where your information is found every three months.
Privacy Monitor Assistant
Let us do the work for you.
Removing your personal information from many sites can be time consuming. The add-on Privacy Monitor Assistant service will submit opt-out requests on your behalf. Learn more.
How Privacy Monitor works:
- View a list of sites where your information is displayed
- See what types of information is being displayed on those sites
- Access quick links to see how to request to opt-out
- Track which sites you’ve requested to opt-out of
- Visit Privacy Monitor every 3 months to re-run the scan to determine what information is available.
- Why re-visit every 3 months? Data can be re-aggregated and re-posted on data broker and people search sites, so re-scanning regularly can help you find data that has been added back in.
