CClustal·People-search site
You can opt out of Clustal for free on its Privacy Control page at clustal.org/privacy-control. Search yourself, click 'view full record' to get the right URL, paste it in, enter an email address and confirm the link Clustal sends. Each listing needs its own email address.

Search yourself
Use the search bar on clustal.org to find your listing.
Open the full record
Click 'view full record' and copy that URL. The URL from the results page won't work in the form.
Submit the removal
On the Privacy Control page, paste the URL, click 'remove my info', enter an email and click 'remove my info' again.
Confirm by email
Click the opt-out link in the email Clustal sends.
One email per listing
If you have several listings, each one needs a different email address.
Official page: Clustal Privacy Control ↗
Clustal can show your home address, phone number, relatives and age. Clustal's one-email-per-listing rule is the main snag. Email aliases or masked addresses make it easier if you have duplicate listings.
Finds every listing
We search Clustal for every profile tied to your name, phone, email and past addresses, including duplicates and family listings the opt-out form won't show you.
Files and confirms the opt-out
We submit the removal, handle the verification steps, and check that the listing is actually gone.
Watches for it coming back
People-search sites re-add records from public data. We recheck Clustal and file again whenever your listing returns.
Covers the copycat sites
The same records show up on other people-search sites. One scan covers them along with Clustal.
Yes. Clustal's opt-out is free. You never need to buy a report or a subscription to remove your information.
Clustal doesn't publish a timeframe. Search again after a few days, and follow up if your information is still there after two weeks.
It can. Clustal keeps adding records from public and commercial sources, so a new listing can appear after a move, a new phone number or a data refresh. Check again every few months.
Not right away. Google can show an old snippet until it recrawls the page. Once the Clustal page is gone, you can ask Google to refresh the result. See our Google removal guide.
