AnyWho is a people search website powered by Intelius, which is owned by PeopleConnect. Because of this corporate structure, you cannot opt out directly on AnyWho.com — instead, you need to go through the PeopleConnect Suppression Center. Here's how.
What Information Does AnyWho Display?
AnyWho aggregates data from white pages, yellow pages, and public records to create searchable profiles containing:
- Full name
- Current and past addresses
- Phone numbers (landline and mobile)
- Age and date of birth
- Relatives and associates
- Possible email addresses
One Opt-Out Covers Multiple Sites
Because PeopleConnect also controls TruthFinder, USSearch, and Intelius, suppressing your data through their portal removes it from all of these affiliated sites — not just AnyWho.
Step-by-Step Opt-Out Instructions
-
Confirm your listing exists:
First, visit AnyWho.com and search for yourself to confirm your information is listed. Note the details displayed so you can identify the correct record later.
-
Go to the PeopleConnect Suppression Center:
Visit suppression.peopleconnect.us/login. This is the only official way to remove your listing from AnyWho.
-
Enter your email address:
Use the email most likely associated with your name — typically the one you use for online account registrations.
-
Agree to terms and continue:
Accept the terms and conditions and click "Continue."
-
Verify your email:
Check your inbox for a verification email from PeopleConnect. Click the "Verify Email" button. Note: the verification link expires after 15 minutes, so act quickly.
-
Enter your personal details:
Provide your date of birth, first name, middle name, and last name. Confirm this is your legal name.
-
Select your record:
You may see multiple records. Choose the one that belongs to you and click "Continue." If you have multiple records, you'll need to repeat this step for each one.
-
Set visibility to "Suppressed":
On the "Control" screen, change the Visibility Setting to Suppressed and click Save.
Want Full Deletion Instead of Suppression?
Suppression hides your record from search results, but your data still exists in their system. For full deletion, click "Delete My User Data" on the control page and confirm via the email link you receive.
Verification Link Expires in 15 Minutes
The email verification link from PeopleConnect expires quickly. Check your email immediately after submitting and look in your spam folder if you don't see it right away.
How Long Does Removal Take?
Removal can take as little as 48 hours or as long as 30 days, depending on how quickly PeopleConnect can verify you as the data owner. Check AnyWho.com after about one week to see if your information has been removed.
Important Notes
Your Data Can Reappear
If Intelius acquires new records containing your personal data, they may relist your profile. Check back every 6 months and repeat the opt-out process if your data resurfaces.
No Direct Opt-Out on AnyWho.com
There is no opt-out form on AnyWho itself. The PeopleConnect Suppression Center is the only path to removal. Don't waste time looking for a form on the AnyWho website.
Complete Privacy Protection
AnyWho is just one of many people search sites that may have your personal information. Opting out of each data broker individually is tedious and needs to be repeated regularly. PrivacyOn automates this entire process across 100+ data broker sites, continuously monitoring for your data and re-submitting opt-out requests whenever your information reappears.
