Step-by-Step: How to Remove Your Data from ZS Associates
The opt-out process is free. Estimated time: 14–30 days for removal to take effect after completing these steps.
Confirm what ZS Associates holds on you
Search zs.com for your full name together with your city or state. Note the URL of any listing and the exact identifiers shown, so your request is specific enough to action without you having to volunteer extra data.
Write your removal email to dataprivacy@zs.com
Email dataprivacy@zs.com with the subject "Privacy / Do Not Sell: Personal Information Removal Request". State clearly: "Remove my personal information from ZS Associates." Cite your rights under the CCPA/CPRA and your state privacy law, and ask ZS Associates to both delete your record and suppress future re-listing.
Include just enough to be matched, and no more
Give your full name, city/state and any listing URL so ZS Associates can locate your record. Only add a phone or email if it is already the identifier they index. Do not volunteer your SSN or a full ID.
Request written confirmation
Ask ZS Associates to reply in writing once your data is removed, and to confirm the date. Keep the email thread: it is your evidence if you later need to escalate to a regulator.
Follow up and verify
ZS Associates states requests take 14–30 days. If you have not had confirmation by the end of that window, reply on the same thread asking for a status update. Re-check zs.com once the change is confirmed.

What to Do If ZS Associates Removal Fails
If the standard opt-out process does not work, follow these escalation steps in order:
If your ZS Associates 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 email goes unanswered, re-send to dataprivacy@zs.com and CC any "privacy" or "legal" alias on the site with the subject "Do Not Sell / Delete: Personal Information" and a clear statement of your request plus your listing URL.
If ZS Associates 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.
