Find your listing
Search searchpeoplefree.com by name, then by phone number, address and email. Each search can surface a different record.
Copy the profile URL
Copy the address of each listing from your browser bar. Each listing usually needs its own request.
Open the opt-out page
Go to the SearchPeopleFree opt-out page and paste the URL or pick your record.
Confirm the request
Submit the opt-out for each record and keep a screenshot.
Search again later
Check after a few days, and again every few months, because listings can come back.
Official page: SearchPeopleFree opt-out ↗
SearchPeopleFree can show your home address, phone number, email, relatives and associates. Free people-search sites like this one often hold several records per person. Searching by every phone and email you've used catches the duplicates.
Finds every listing
We search SearchPeopleFree 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 SearchPeopleFree 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 SearchPeopleFree.
Yes. SearchPeopleFree's opt-out is free. You never need to buy a report or a subscription to remove your information.
SearchPeopleFree 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. SearchPeopleFree 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 SearchPeopleFree page is gone, you can ask Google to refresh the result. See our Google removal guide.
