Step-by-Step: How to Remove Your Data from RocketReach
The opt-out process is free. Estimated time: up to 30 days for removal to take effect after completing these steps.
Find your listing on RocketReach
Open rocketreach.co in a private/incognito window and search your full name together with your city or state. RocketReach often shows several listings if you have lived at more than one address — identify each listing that is actually you before you start.
Copy the exact listing URL
Open your listing and copy the full URL from the address bar. RocketReach's opt-out form matches on the exact listing, so the precise URL for each one is what you paste in.
Open the opt-out / suppression page
Go to https://rocketreach.co/opt-out. If that link has moved, scroll to the rocketreach.co 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 listing URL into the form.
Confirm by email and submit
RocketReach 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 listing
Removals here typically take up to 30 days. After that window, search rocketreach.co again in a private window. Submit a separate request for each remaining listing, and use Google's "Remove Outdated Content" tool if a cached copy lingers in search results.
How Long Does RocketReach Removal Take?
What Documents RocketReach May Request
No government ID required
- •The email address(es) RocketReach lists for you
- •Your full name and employer
- •An email address for confirmation
⚠️ Safety note on ID uploads
RocketReach's opt-out is keyed to the email it already shows — that is all it needs. Do not provide a government ID, SSN or home address to a B2B lookup service.
What to Do If RocketReach Removal Fails
If the standard opt-out process does not work, follow these escalation steps in order:
If your RocketReach 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@rocketreach.co with the subject "Do Not Sell / Delete — Personal Information" and a clear statement of your request plus your listing URL.
If RocketReach 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 RocketReach specifically. The catch is that RocketReach 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.
⚡ Automated removal (OfflistMe)
OfflistMe covers 500+ data brokers including RocketReach for a single one-time payment. Instead of hunting down each broker's opt-out page, OfflistMe surfaces the correct opt-out link or privacy email and pre-generates a properly worded removal request for each one.
