This list was started on September 29, 2017 and was most recently updated in September 2023 to update links for Spokeo and SearchQuarry, add Catalog Choice and the Deceased Do Not Contact list for those looking to reduce unwanted media mail, to add ChexSystems for those already freezing their credit, Facecheck ID for people who want to delete data from the reverse image search facial recognition database, and to add info about the free Permission Slip app.
Please send corrections or updates to [yael@yaelwrites.com](mailto:yael@yaelwrites.com), or file a pull request. (You can find other ways to contact me [here](https://yaelwrites.com/contact). Screenshots in emails are incredibly helpful. I will add opt-outs where users can verify that the data broker has their information before providing it, and where removal is not limited to GDPR/CCPA/etc.

_Disclaimers: Some of these opt-outs take a long time to go through. Sometimes, information is pulled from other sources and youll need to opt out multiple times for the same site. Data brokers come and go (and are bought out by others), and they also often change their opt-out pages. I try to update this ~every six months, but its not always current. Finally, even opting out of these sites doesnt mean that your address is secure. In many states, real estate data and voter registration information is public (or easy to obtain). And, of course, location data can be found by physical means (e.g., following you home) and through other people who know it (i.e., social engineering). That said, removing your home address from data broker sites can significantly lower your attack surface and make it harder for people to find it. 💕_
