How to remove yourself from BeenVerified

BeenVerified's opt-out is free. You search for your record, pick it and confirm by email.

Updated October 14, 2026

Nope is not affiliated with BeenVerified. If a step looks different, follow the site's own instructions.

What BeenVerified shows

  • Your name, age and the places you have lived
  • Relatives and other people linked to you
  • Phone numbers, email addresses and address history, in its paid reports

BeenVerified sells background reports. Its sister sites, such as PeopleLooker, keep their own opt-out lists.

How to opt out of BeenVerified

  1. Go to BeenVerified's opt-out page. Tick the box if it asks you to prove you are human: beenverified.com/app/optout/search (opens in a new tab)

  2. Enter your first and last name, pick your state and search.

  3. Find your record in the list and select it.

  4. Enter your email address and send the request.

  5. Open the email from BeenVerified and click the link to confirm. The opt-out is not finished until you do.

  6. More than one record? Use a different email address for each one. BeenVerified takes one opt-out per email address.

  7. BeenVerified has separate opt-outs for its Property Search and Contact Search. Find them on the same opt-out page: beenverified.com/app/optout/search (opens in a new tab)

How long does it take?

Search BeenVerified's opt-out page again after 3 days. If your record still shows, send the request again.

Will my BeenVerified listing come back?

It can. People-search sites keep adding new records, so a new record can appear, for example after you move. Search your name, phone number and email again in about a month, then every few months, and after you move or change numbers.

Does it cost anything?

No. The opt-out is free, and you don't need an account.
