Step-by-step privacy guide
BeenVerified’s removal tool starts with a name-and-state search. Select the exact record, provide a working confirmation inbox, pass the CAPTCHA, and finish the verification email.
Step 1
Use the dedicated app route rather than the paid report flow.
Open the opt-out search and confirm that it asks for first name, last name, and state.
You do not need a BeenVerified membership to submit this request.
Step 2
Use the state connected to the listing you want removed.
Enter your first and last name, choose the state, and run the search.
Try a former state or former name only when the first search does not find the record.
Step 3
Check age, cities, and relatives before selecting a profile.
Open or inspect each likely result and compare it with your history.
Select every distinct record that belongs to you one at a time.
Step 4
BeenVerified sends the final removal link to this inbox.
Enter an email alias or separate inbox that you can open immediately.
Complete the CAPTCHA and choose Send Verification Email.
Step 5
Email confirmation completes the submission.
Check the inbox and spam folder, then open the verification link in the message.
Save the confirmed email until you have verified that the listing is gone.
Step 6
Use the same name and state after processing.
Repeat the search in a private window and confirm that the selected result no longer appears.
If a duplicate remains, repeat the process for that separate listing.
Yes. The manual removal route described here is free. You should not need to buy a report or membership to submit a BeenVerified opt-out request.
Use a separate inbox or alias when the form accepts one, but keep it active until the request is complete. Some brokers require a working email because the confirmation link is the final step.
Treat each distinct profile as a separate record unless the removal page says otherwise. Save every profile URL and submit a request for each listing that clearly belongs to you.
Yes. People-search sites refresh their databases from public records and commercial sources. Keep the confirmation message and check the site again after several weeks.
No. An opt-out limits display on the broker’s site. It does not erase court, property, licensing, or other records held by the original public agency.
