How to remove yourself from Intelius, Instant Checkmate and TruthFinder

These sites share one owner, PeopleConnect, and one free opt-out page.

Updated October 14, 2026

Nope is not affiliated with PeopleConnect or the sites it owns. If a step looks different, follow the site's own instructions.

What Intelius and its sister sites show

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

PeopleConnect says its Suppression Center covers the people-search sites it owns. Intelius, Instant Checkmate and TruthFinder are among them.

How to opt out of Intelius and its sister sites

  1. Go to PeopleConnect's Suppression Center: suppression.peopleconnect.us (opens in a new tab)

  2. Enter your email address and tick the box to agree to its terms. Open the email PeopleConnect sends and click the link to sign in.

  3. Enter your date of birth and your legal name. Type the date carefully: you can't change it later.

  4. Find the record that matches you and choose to suppress it.

  5. If it texts a code to a phone number on your record, enter the code to finish.

How long does it take?

When it's done, the record shows as suppressed in the Suppression Center. Search for yourself on these sites again after 7 days.

Will my Intelius 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. It's free. You sign in with a link sent to your email, with no password or payment.
