Remove Your Data from
People Search Sites

PrivacyCat uses advanced web scraping technology to search through 25+ people search sites across the web. We search using the personal information you provide (name, location, age) to find exact matches of your data. Our system mimics manual searches but does it automatically and continuously. Takes about 8 minutes for the initial scan.

We can't automatically scan premium background check sites like BeenVerified because they paywall their data. However, Premium users get unlimited custom removal requests—if you find your data on BeenVerified, TruthFinder, Instant Checkmate, or any other site we don't scan, submit up to 10 URLs per request and we'll handle the opt-out process for you. This feature is especially useful if you have expunged records or sensitive information on these premium sites.

The initial scan takes just 8 minutes. Once we submit removal requests, most data brokers process them within 7-45 days, though some can take up to 90 days. We handle all the follow-ups and verification steps for you. You'll see sites being removed from your dashboard as they complete the opt-out process, and we'll keep monitoring to ensure your data doesn't reappear.

Probably not all of them. Spam calls come from many sources—data breaches, companies you've signed up with, random dialers. We can only fix one piece: people search sites selling your number to telemarketers. After using PrivacyCat, my spam calls dropped from 8 per day to 1-2 per week. Your results will depend on where your number originally leaked from.

It can. Data brokers sometimes re-scrape public records or get updated information. That's why Premium includes continuous monitoring—we keep checking and automatically resubmit removal requests if your data reappears.

You'll get screenshots showing your listing before removal, and we track each site's status in your dashboard. You can see exactly what was there and when it was removed. You can also Google yourself to verify.

It can help with some situations. We remove your data from people search sites, which can show up in basic background checks and Google searches. This includes old addresses, outdated info, and public records. For comprehensive background check sites like BeenVerified or TruthFinder that we don't automatically scan, Premium users can use our custom removal feature to submit those specific URLs for removal. This is particularly useful if you have expunged records that shouldn't be showing up.

A few things: (1) We show you actual screenshots of your exposures—most services don't. (2) We're transparent about exactly which 25+ sites we cover. (3) Our pricing is more straightforward with a lifetime option. (4) Premium users get unlimited custom removals for sites we don't scan, like BeenVerified or TruthFinder. (5) Our scans are way faster—8 minutes vs hours or days with competitors.

Absolutely. We use bank-level 256-bit AES encryption to protect all your personal information. Your data is only used to search for and remove your information from data broker sites - we never sell or share it with third parties. We're also fully GDPR and CCPA compliant, and you can delete your account and all associated data at any time.
