Heads up: We couldn't reach the opt-out page when we checked. The steps below may be out of date. Search the site's footer for "privacy", "do not sell", or "opt out" links.

Steps

  1. Check whether you're listed. Search governmentregistry.org for your name, city, and state. Note any listings that match you, including older addresses.
  2. Open the opt-out form. Go to GovernmentRegistry.org's opt-out page and fill in the form with the details that match your listing.
  3. Or send an email. You can also email privacy@governmentregistry.org and ask them to remove your record. Include your full name, the address shown on the listing, and a link to it if there is one. Don't send anything they don't already have.
  4. Check again later. Search for yourself again in a few days. Brokers often re-add people from new public records, so put a reminder on your calendar to check again in 6 months.

FAQ

Is it free to opt out of GovernmentRegistry.org?

Submitting an opt-out request yourself is normally free. You don't need to buy a report or a membership to ask for removal.

How long does it take?

It varies. Some sites remove a listing within a day or two, others take several weeks. Search again after a few days and again later.

Will my information come back?

It can. Brokers rebuild profiles from new public records, so plan to check again about every 6 months.
