To remove your name from Bizapedia, open your company profile, copy its URL, then go to bizapedia.com/contact.aspx, choose Hide company private information, paste the URL, and confirm the request through the email Bizapedia sends. Bizapedia hides names and addresses on request; it deletes whole company pages only when the business is closed and the state no longer publishes it.
What Bizapedia Publishes About You
Bizapedia is a free business directory built from Secretary of State filings, trademark records and other public business registries. If you have ever formed an LLC, registered a corporation, filed a DBA, acted as a registered agent or applied for a trademark, there is a good chance Bizapedia has a page that names you. A typical company profile shows:
- The company name, entity type, filing number and status (active, dissolved, inactive)
- Officers, members, managers and organizers listed by full name
- The principal and mailing addresses on the filing — often a home address for sole-member LLCs and side businesses
- The registered agent's name and address
- Filing dates and links to related companies and people pages
Bizapedia also builds people pages and address pages that cross-link every company tied to a name or location. That is what turns a one-off state filing into a searchable profile showing where you live and every business you are involved with.
Why This Matters for Small Business Owners
Freelancers, landlords and side-hustlers frequently list their home address when they form an LLC. Bizapedia republishes that address next to your name, and people-search sites and business identity thieves mine directories like it. Hiding the address on Bizapedia is a quick win.
Step 1: Find Your Bizapedia Listing
Go to bizapedia.com, choose the search category (Company, People, Address or Trademark), and search your name or business name. Open each result that mentions you. Note that the removal form only accepts a company page URL or trademark page URL — not a people page or address page — so for every person or address page that shows your details, click through to the underlying company profile.
Step 2: Copy the Company Page URL
Copy the full URL of each company profile that lists your name or address. If you are tied to several companies, you will submit one request per company page. Keep the list in a note so you can re-check each one later.
Step 3: Open the Contact Form
Scroll to the bottom of any Bizapedia page and click Contact Us, or go straight to bizapedia.com/contact.aspx. Bizapedia does not run a separate opt-out page; this form handles every privacy request.
Step 4: Choose the Right Reason
The form asks why you are contacting Bizapedia. Pick the option that fits:
- Hide company private information — hides people's names and addresses on a company profile. This is the right choice for most people.
- Dissolved or inactive company — asks Bizapedia to remove the whole page for a closed or converted company. Bizapedia first checks whether the state agency still publishes the record; if it does, the page stays, but you can still have your private information hidden.
- Protected professionals — law enforcement officers, military members, prosecutors, public defenders and judges can submit a declaration to hide their names and addresses.
- Hide trademark private information — the same name-and-address hiding for trademark profiles.

Step 5: Complete and Submit the Form
Fill in your email address, first and last name (middle name is optional), the company page URL and a short comment such as "Please hide my name and home address on this profile." Tick the Terms of Use box and the declaration, then click Submit Request.
Read the Declaration Before You Tick It
The form asks you to declare, under penalty of perjury, that you are an owner or authorized representative of the company, and to accept responsibility for false statements. Only submit requests for companies you actually own or represent. If a page lists you but you have no authority over the company — say, a former employer — use the Other reason and explain your situation instead.
Step 6: Verify by Email and Re-Check
Bizapedia sends a verification email to the address you entered. Click the link inside — unverified requests are not processed. You will land on a confirmation page. Check the profile again after about a week, and re-check whenever you file an annual report, since a fresh filing can update the page.
Fix the Source: Your State Filing
Bizapedia mirrors what your state publishes, so the most durable fix is changing the filing itself. On your next annual report or amendment, replace your home address with a registered agent service or a virtual mailbox address, and in states that allow it, list a manager or organizer service instead of yourself. Once the state record changes, Bizapedia's next refresh carries the new address. Our guide to protecting your privacy when starting a business covers which states allow anonymous LLCs.
Bizapedia Is One of Many Business Data Sites
Hiding your details on Bizapedia does not touch OpenCorporates, Corporation Wiki, Buzzfile or the B2B contact databases that sell owner details to sales teams, such as ZoomInfo and RocketReach. And the home address that leaked through your LLC filing is very likely already on consumer people-search sites as well.
That long tail is where a service saves real time.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I remove my name from Bizapedia?
Copy the URL of the company profile that lists you, open bizapedia.com/contact.aspx, choose "Hide company private information," paste the URL, submit, and click the verification link Bizapedia emails you. Bizapedia then hides your name and address on that profile. Repeat for each company page that names you.
Can I delete my company from Bizapedia completely?
Only if the company is dissolved, converted or inactive and the state agency no longer publishes its record. Bizapedia checks the government source first. If the state still shows the company, the page stays live, but you can still ask Bizapedia to hide the personal names and addresses on it.
Is Bizapedia legit and where does it get its data?
Yes, Bizapedia is a real business directory. It compiles public records from Secretary of State business filings, trademark registrations and similar government sources. The information is generally accurate as of the last filing, which is why changing your state filing is the most reliable long-term fix.
How long does a Bizapedia removal take?
Bizapedia does not publish a fixed timeline. Most verified requests to hide private information are handled within about a week. If your details are still visible after two weeks, submit the form again under "Other" and reference your earlier request.
Does removing myself from Bizapedia remove me from Google?
Not immediately. Google can show a cached snippet of the old page for days or weeks after Bizapedia updates it. Once the page changes, you can use Google's Refresh Outdated Content tool to speed things up, and Google's "Results about you" tool can help with results that show your home address.
What is the easiest way to keep my business address private?
Use a registered agent or virtual mailbox address on state filings, hide your details on Bizapedia, and then deal with the people-search sites that already have your home address. PrivacyOn handles that last step across 100+ data brokers with continuous monitoring, starting with a free scan.
