DATA REMOVAL FAQs
Where Does the Information Come From?
We obtain public records from official public records custodians or repositories such as state and local offices, agencies, courts, and departments. These custodians make records available upon request to the general public. If you want to correct or remove your official public record or make your official public record unavailable for public access, you will need to contact the relevant state or local office, agency, court, or department to make your request. The process by which you may request for your official public record to be corrected, removed, or made non-public may vary, so please check with the relevant state or local office, agency, court, or department for details.

Will My Information Be Removed Forever?
Once we have processed your Data Removal Request, the information you have provided will no longer appear in our databases. Although most information is usually removed or blocked permanently, we do not guarantee the information will not be available again in the future in some other form, as we are not in direct control of the information distributed and obtained from official public records/government or third party sources. It is for this reason that we recommend you contact the custodian of the original record to request that it be removed or corrected.
In addition, we have no control over any information displayed by other online public records vendors, and your Data Removal Request will not remove information from third party websites or search engines.
What Can I Do About My Information Appearing in Search Engines?
Even after we have removed a record in response to your request, that record may continue to appear in search engine search results until the search engines (Google, Bing) re-index our site. We have no control over how quickly that re-indexing takes place. You may wish to request that those search engines remove the outdated results.
