What CheckPeople 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

CheckPeople says its Suppression Center manages what people-search websites owned by CheckPeople show about you.

How to opt out of CheckPeople

  1. Go to CheckPeople's Suppression Center: checkpeople.com/opt-out (opens in a new tab)

  2. Enter your email address, tick the box to agree to its terms and to emails about the request, and tap Continue.

  3. Open the verification email from CheckPeople and click the link inside.

  4. Follow the steps on the page the link opens to find your record and ask for it to be hidden.

How long does it take?

Search CheckPeople for your name again after 7 days.

Will my CheckPeople 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?

The first screen asks only for your email address, with no payment. We did not go past it, so if a later step asks you to pay, stop.
