How to Opt Out of PublicRecordReports

PublicRecordReports.com is a people search website that compiles personal information from public records and makes it available to anyone online. Your name, home address, phone number, age, and known associates could all be listed on this site without your knowledge. Here is how to remove your information from PublicRecordReports.

What Does PublicRecordReports Show About You?

PublicRecordReports builds detailed profiles by pulling data from public records databases, including:

  • Full legal name and any known aliases
  • Current and previous home addresses
  • Landline and mobile phone numbers
  • Email addresses
  • Date of birth and age
  • Known relatives and associates
  • Property ownership records
  • Court records and legal filings

This information is aggregated from government databases, court systems, property records, and commercial data providers. PublicRecordReports makes it easy for anyone — including scammers, stalkers, and data miners — to look you up in seconds.

How to Opt Out of PublicRecordReports: Step-by-Step

Step 1: Find the Removal Page

Visit PublicRecordReports.com and scroll to the bottom of the homepage. Click on Remove Me From Website. This will take you to the privacy request page. You can also navigate directly to publicrecordreports.com/help-center/privacy-requests.

Step 2: Start the Process

Click Get Started to begin the removal process. You will be asked to enter identifying information so the system can locate your records.

Step 3: Search for Your Listing

Enter the following information:

  1. Your full name
  2. Your age
  3. Your state of residence

Click Continue to search the database. Review the results to find the listing that matches your details.

Step 4: Request Removal

Click Remove next to the profile that matches your information. If multiple listings appear with your name, you will need to submit removal requests for each one individually.

Step 5: Verify Your Email

Enter a valid email address and click Continue. Check your email inbox for a verification message from PublicRecordReports. Click the confirmation link in the email to finalize your removal request.

Check Spam and Promotions Folders

Verification emails sometimes end up in spam or promotions folders. If you do not receive an email within a few minutes, check these folders before resubmitting your request.

Step 6: Wait for Confirmation

After clicking the verification link, your record will be removed the next time the database updates — typically within 24 hours. You will receive a confirmation email once the removal is complete.

Re-listing Is Common

PublicRecordReports refreshes its database regularly from public records sources. Your information may reappear after removal. Set a calendar reminder to check back every 3 to 6 months and repeat the opt-out process if needed.

Additional Options

Phone Support

If you encounter issues with the online opt-out process, PublicRecordReports offers phone support at 1-800-326-2283. You do not need to be a paid member to request removal.

Cost

The opt-out process is completely free. You do not need to create an account or pay any fees to have your records removed from PublicRecordReports.

Why This Matters

Having your personal information on PublicRecordReports creates several risks:

  • Privacy erosion: Anyone can find your home address and contact details
  • Targeted scams: Scammers use personal details from people search sites to craft convincing phishing messages
  • Harassment: Ex-partners, online trolls, or other bad actors can use this information to find and harass you
  • Data aggregation: Each piece of exposed data makes it easier for criminals to build a complete profile of you for identity theft

PublicRecordReports Is One of Many

Removing your data from PublicRecordReports is a good first step, but your information likely exists on dozens of other people search sites as well. Sites like Spokeo, BeenVerified, Whitepages, PeopleFinder, Radaris, and many others also expose your data.
