How to Remove Yourself from USSearch

Data collected: name, phone, address, email, relatives, criminal, mugshots, property, vehicle. Last verified: Sat Mar 28 2026 19:00:00 GMT-0500 (Central Daylight Time)

What USSearch Collects

USSearch is one of the more invasive people search brokers, collecting not just basic contact information but also mugshots, vehicle records, and criminal history. It's part of the PeopleConnect network (alongside Intelius, TruthFinder, and InstantCheckmate) and is protected by Cloudflare, which makes the site resistant to automated scraping.

What Data They Have on You

  • 📧 Email addresses
  • 📱 Phone numbers
  • 🏠 Home address (current and former)
  • 👤 Full name and aliases
  • 🔗 Relatives and associates
  • 📋 Criminal records and arrest history
  • 📸 Mugshots (if applicable)
  • 🏡 Property ownership records
  • 🚗 Vehicle registration records

How to Remove Yourself

Step 1: Navigate to the PeopleConnect Privacy Center

USSearch is handled through the PeopleConnect Suppression Center. Go to: USSearch / PeopleConnect Privacy Center →

Step 2: Email Verification

  1. Enter your email address
  2. Check your inbox for a verification email
  3. Click the link within 15 minutes — it expires quickly

Step 3: Complete the Suppression Form

After clicking the email link:

  1. Enter your full name
  2. Enter your date of birth
  3. Complete the phone-based identity verification (they'll send a code via SMS)
  4. Submit the form

Step 4: Wait for Processing

Suppression takes 7–14 days. Your profile will be hidden from name searches during this window.

⏱️ Time required: ~15 minutes

Important Notes

  • ⚠️ Your data WILL repopulate. Repeat every 90 days.
  • USSearch uses Cloudflare — the site blocks automated access. Don't try to bypass it; use the PeopleConnect suppression center instead.
  • The opt-out process requires email + phone verification. Have your mobile handy.
  • Multiple records require separate suppression requests. If your data appears under multiple cities or addresses, repeat for each.
  • Suppression is not deletion — your data stays in their system, just hidden from name searches.
