How to opt out of BeenVerified
To remove your personal information from BeenVerified, use its official opt-out page and follow the form+email confirm process. Filing yourself is free. Check the site's current verification requirements. Keep confirmation and check the result afterward. Removal can take time, and listings may return.
Steps
- Search BeenVerified for your name and city and open the result that matches you. Copy its URL; most opt-out forms ask for it.
- Open the official opt-out page at beenverified.com.
- Paste your listing URL (or search inside the form) and fill in the details it asks for.
- Check your inbox (and spam) for a confirmation email and click the link. Many requests aren't processed until you do.
- Save the confirmation number or email, and take a dated screenshot of the listing before and after.
- Re-check in a few weeks, and again every few months. Listings often come back when the site buys fresh data.
Things to know
- This site blocks automated traffic, so the opt-out page may show a bot check before it loads.

Common questions
Is it free to opt out of BeenVerified?
Yes. BeenVerified's opt-out is free. You don't need to pay anyone to file it, including us; this guide walks through it.
Will my BeenVerified listing come back?
It can. People-search sites rebuild profiles from new public records and data purchases. Re-check every few months and re-file if it reappears.
Does removing myself from BeenVerified remove me from other sites?
BeenVerified is part of the BeenVerified family, along with PeopleLooker. Some family sites share opt-out systems, but check each one separately.
Does California's DROP cover BeenVerified?
DROP only reaches brokers registered with California. BeenVerified's registration status in our records: probably registered (unverified). Check the CPPA data broker registry for the current list. Even registered brokers may claim exemptions for public-record data.
Keep proof
Whether you file yourself or have someone do it, keep a dated screenshot of the listing before and after, and the confirmation email or number. If the listing comes back, that record is what you'll point to. That's the whole idea behind Quietname's proof records.
