The 2026 guide to removing your data from people-search brokers

Info Remover Editorial·May 2, 2026· 11 min read

If you have ever searched your own name and seen a site offering your home address for $4.99, you have met a data broker. There are more than sixty active in the United States alone, and most refresh their records every 30 to 90 days.

Why one-time removal does not work

Brokers re-scrape public records on a rolling basis. A removal request you submit today is often undone within a quarter. Continuous monitoring is the only durable answer.

What a proper program covers

A serious data broker removal program covers identity records, court records aggregators, real estate sites that expose ownership history, and lesser-known international brokers that quietly resell the same data.
