How to remove yourself from TruthFinder (2026)
TruthFinder publishes contact details, address history, relatives, and public records. Here's how to opt out yourself — and how to get it done across every broker at once.
Remove yourself from TruthFinder manually
1. Find TruthFinder's opt-out page
Search "TruthFinder opt out" or look for the Privacy / Do Not Sell My Info link in their footer. Most people-search sites are legally required to offer one.
2. Locate your listing
Search your name (and city) on the site to find the exact profile URL that has your data. You usually need the listing link to submit a removal.
3. Submit the removal request
Paste your listing into their opt-out form and submit. Some sites ask for an email to confirm; give a dedicated address, not your main one.
4. Confirm by email
Click the confirmation link they send. Removals are usually not processed until you verify.
5. Re-check in ~45 days
TruthFinder — like most brokers — quietly re-adds your data as new records come in. A one-time opt-out does not hold; you have to repeat it.
The catch: it's one broker, and it comes back
Opting out of TruthFinder removes one listing. Your data is on hundreds of other brokers, and TruthFinder itself re-adds you as new public records appear. Doing this by hand means repeating the process across every site, every few weeks — indefinitely.

FAQ
Is it free to remove yourself from TruthFinder?
Yes — TruthFinder offers a free opt-out, and you can do it yourself with the steps above. The catch is time: you have to do it for every broker, and repeat it every few weeks when they re-add you.
How long does TruthFinder take to remove my data?
Most people-search sites process a verified opt-out within a few days to a few weeks. Under the California Delete Act, registered brokers must honor deletion requests within 45 days.
Does TruthFinder put my data back?
Often, yes. Brokers refresh their databases from public records and re-list people over time, which is why a single opt-out rarely sticks. Ongoing re-checks are what keep you off.
Can numbi remove me from TruthFinder automatically?
Yes. numbi files deletion requests with all 566 California-registered data brokers (including TruthFinder), re-checks every 45 days, and files a CalPrivacy complaint with a $200/day statutory penalty when a broker ignores you — for $5/mo.
