How to Remove Your Data from LiveRampStep-by-Step Guide 2026
To request action from LiveRamp, open its current US privacy-choices route and choose the request that matches your goal: opt out of processing, sale, or sharing, or submit a covered access, correction, or deletion request. Provide only the identifiers and verification details the live route asks for, save the response, and handle browser-cookie or device-identifier controls separately. The current catalog does not record a routine government-ID requirement for LiveRamp; that is not a promise that the live route will never ask for verification. The catalog records a source-bounded estimate of Varies by provider, request, and current route; it is not an SLA or proof of completion. The identity graph that stitches your hashed email and device IDs across thousands of ad-tech partners.

What is LiveRamp?
LiveRamp is an identity-resolution and data-connectivity company that was spun out of Acxiom in 2018. Unlike people-search sites, LiveRamp does not publish consumer profiles, instead, it operates a behind-the-scenes "identity graph" that links hashed email addresses, mobile advertising IDs, cookies, and postal addresses into a single "RampID" that advertisers use to target you across the web. Because LiveRamp is upstream of thousands of advertisers and publishers, a removal here propagates your opt-out across a large portion of the US ad-tech ecosystem.
Catalog-described data types for LiveRamp
- •Hashed email addresses (used as identity anchors)
- •Mobile advertising IDs (Apple IDFA, Google GAID)
- •Third-party browser cookies
- •Postal addresses (household-level linkage)
- •Behavioral segments (interests, demographics, purchase categories)
- •Device graph (links between your phones, tablets, laptops)
- •Authenticated Traffic Solution (ATS) pseudonymous IDs
Why Your Data Appears on LiveRamp
Your data entered LiveRamp's identity graph because a publisher, retailer, app, or email provider you transacted with shared your hashed email or mobile advertising ID with LiveRamp. LiveRamp then matches that identifier against its existing graph and associates it with your RampID. Unlike people-search brokers, you did not appear here because of a single public record, you were added through commercial data-sharing relationships between LiveRamp and its thousands of enterprise clients.
Where LiveRamp gets your data
- →Publisher and retailer partners (via hashed email sign-ins)
- →Mobile app SDKs (for device ID collection)
- →Email service providers (for hashed email matching)
- →Loyalty program and CRM exports from enterprise clients
- →Acxiom consumer data (pre-2018 legacy)
- →Third-party data broker partnerships
- →Authenticated Traffic Solution publisher integrations
Step-by-Step: How to Remove Your Data from LiveRamp
The provider may offer a no-charge request route, but terms can change. Current catalog reference: Varies by provider, request, and current route — not a provider SLA; verify the route and result after submitting.
Go to LiveRamp's My Privacy Choices page
Navigate to liveramp.com/privacy/my-privacy-choices. This is LiveRamp's US consumer privacy portal. Choose the request that matches your goal: the current page distinguishes opt-out requests, access, correction, and deletion, and says the opt-out route is available to all US residents while other rights depend on state coverage.
Choose the request that matches your goal
LiveRamp distinguishes opt-out, access, correction, and deletion requests. Use the opt-out route when your goal is to limit processing, disclosure, sale, or sharing; use the deletion route when you are exercising a covered deletion right. The current portal explains the different scopes.
Enter the identifiers LiveRamp may have for you
For a comprehensive opt-out, the current portal says first name, last name, and email are required. Follow the live form for any additional identifier or verification fields; do not assume that every historical address or identifier is required.
Verify your email
Complete the verification and any identity or residency checks shown by the current portal for the request type you selected. Access and deletion requests can require more verification than an opt-out request.
Save the provider response
For step 5, use the provider's current acknowledgement as a follow-up reference, then search liveramp.com in a private window and record whether the exact listing changed. A search-result change is separate from source deletion.
Opt out of mobile and cookie identifiers separately
The main request and device-specific controls have separate scopes. To also address the browser cookie and mobile identifier, use optout.liveramp.com/opt_out_cookies and optout.liveramp.com/device_opt_out, then follow the current fields on each route.
Re-check the exact request scope
After the current response period for your request type, re-check the exact account, identifier, or report scope named in the provider response. A provider response does not establish that every publisher, advertiser, cookie, device, or downstream copy changed.
How Long Does LiveRamp Removal Take?
What Documents LiveRamp May Request
No routine ID requirement recorded
- •First name, last name, and an active email for a comprehensive opt-out
- •Only the additional identifiers or verification details requested by the selected route
- •For access or deletion, be prepared for the current portal's identity and residency checks
⚠️ Safety note on ID uploads
The current LiveRamp portal distinguishes request types. It describes name and email for a comprehensive opt-out, while access and deletion can require identity and residency verification, including an identity document or alternate proof. Use the least-disclosive request that matches your goal and provide only what the live route requires.

What to Do If LiveRamp Removal Fails
If the standard opt-out process does not work, follow these escalation steps in order:
If LiveRamp does not respond within the current period for your request type, use the portal's current support route or call the consumer-care number listed in its US privacy FAQ, keeping the submission or case details available.
If the relevant data or request remains unresolved after the current response period, reply to the original case or use LiveRamp's current appeal route, keeping the exact request scope and evidence available.
If LiveRamp does not respond within the period stated by its current notice or the law that applies to you, keep the request and any acknowledgement, then use the relevant regulator or complaint channel.
Alternative Options
🔧 Manual removal
The manual opt-out above works and may be available at no provider charge under the current route. The catch is that LiveRamp is keyed on hashed email, so a request only deletes the email addresses you explicitly list. If you have ever used 10+ email addresses with retailers or newsletters (most people have), missing one leaves that branch of your identity graph intact. A thorough manual opt-out requires listing every historical email address, which most people cannot readily recall.
⚡ Request drafting (OfflistMe)
OfflistMe's public catalog contains 1,034 recorded US/global workflow profiles, including LiveRamp where a route is recorded. It can prepare a reviewable request using the identifiers you choose to provide; you decide what to send and handle any separate cookie or mobile-ID controls and provider response yourself.
Generate the LiveRamp opt-out email →Frequently Asked Questions
LiveRamp's business model is "data connectivity" , they do not sell raw personal data in the way a people-search site does. Instead, advertisers upload their own customer lists to LiveRamp, LiveRamp matches those lists against its RampID graph, and returns a set of pseudonymous RampIDs that the advertiser can then use to target you on partner sites. Under CCPA this still counts as "sharing" for cross-context behavioral advertising, which is why you have the right to opt out.
A RampID is LiveRamp's persistent pseudonymous identifier for you. It is not your real name or email, but because it links your hashed email, cookies, mobile ad IDs, and postal address into one bundle, advertisers can re-identify you across the open web even if you block third-party cookies. Deleting your data from LiveRamp breaks the RampID linkage for the identifiers you submit.
Yes, you will still see ads. An opt-out changes the LiveRamp processing scope described by the provider; it does not guarantee that ads from LiveRamp customers, other providers, or unrelated advertising systems will stop or become contextual.
No. LiveRamp and Acxiom are now separate companies (LiveRamp spun out in 2018). Acxiom still operates a traditional consumer data broker business and maintains its own profiles. To remove your data from Acxiom, submit a separate request at isapps.acxiom.com/opt-out/opt-out.aspx or email askprivacy@acxiom.com.
The linked portal is LiveRamp's US consumer privacy route. For a request outside the US, use LiveRamp's current privacy page and follow the notice and route for your country or region; do not assume the US form or a US response period applies.
