Step-by-Step: How to Remove Your Data from AddressSearch
The opt-out process is free. Estimated time: 24–48 hours for removal to take effect after completing these steps.
Find your property listing on AddressSearch
Open addresssearch.com in a private/incognito window and search your name and any address you own or have lived at. AddressSearch can tie several addresses, owners and residents to your name — identify each property listing that is actually you before you start.
Copy the exact property listing URL
Open your property listing and copy the full URL from the address bar. AddressSearch's opt-out form matches on the exact property listing, so the precise URL for each one is what you paste in.
Open the opt-out / suppression page
Go to https://www.addresssearch.com/remove-info.php. If that link has moved, scroll to the addresssearch.com footer and look for "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information", "Opt Out", "Privacy" or "Suppress My Listing" — every broker operating in the US is required to expose one. Paste your property listing URL into the form.
Confirm by email and submit
AddressSearch emails you a confirmation link to prove the request is yours. Use a real inbox you control and click the link — the removal is not queued until you confirm, and you do not need to create an account.
Re-check and repeat for every property listing
Removals here typically take 24–48 hours. After that window, search addresssearch.com again in a private window. Submit a separate request for each remaining property listing, and use Google's "Remove Outdated Content" tool if a cached copy lingers in search results.
How Long Does AddressSearch Removal Take?
What Documents AddressSearch May Request
No government ID required
- •The listing URL or the exact data point they index
- •An email address for the confirmation link
⚠️ Safety note on ID uploads
You should not need to upload an ID for a standard people-search opt-out here. If they ask for one, redact everything except your name and address, and never send your Social Security number.
What to Do If AddressSearch Removal Fails
If the standard opt-out process does not work, follow these escalation steps in order:
If your AddressSearch listing reappears within 30–60 days, simply re-submit the opt-out. Re-listing after a new public record is normal and does not mean your first request failed.
If the opt-out form is broken or the link has moved, email privacy@addresssearch.com with the subject "Do Not Sell / Delete — Personal Information" and a clear statement of your request plus your listing URL.
If AddressSearch still does not comply within 45 days, file a complaint with your state Attorney General and the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov. California residents can additionally report non-compliance to the CPPA at cppa.ca.gov.
Alternative Options
🔧 Manual removal (free)
The opt-out above is free and works for AddressSearch specifically. The catch is that AddressSearch is only one of 500+ data brokers — to actually disappear you would repeat a similar process for each site, which is typically 20–40 hours of research and follow-up.
