We find every data broker, people-search site, and public record holding your personal information — and force them to remove it.
You sign up once. We handle everything — scanning, submitting removal requests, and monitoring for new listings — continuously.
We collect your name, address history, and key details — only what's needed to find your records across databases.
Our system searches every major people-finder, data broker, and public records site that holds personal information.
Each site has its own opt-out process. We handle every request on your behalf — no forms for you to fill out.
Once removals are complete, we send you a full report of every site we cleared. Your fresh start, documented.
We target all the places your personal information lives — and wipe it clean.
Spokeo, WhitePages, Intelius, BeenVerified, and 150+ others publish your name, address, relatives, and phone numbers. We remove them.
Commercial data brokers sell your information to marketers, insurers, and background check companies. We opt you out at the source.
Court filings, property records, and voter registration data are scraped and republished. We target every aggregator republishing yours.
When your removal is done, you receive a full report listing every site we cleared — so you know exactly what changed.
Protect your whole household. Add a spouse, parents, or adult children to a single plan at a discounted rate.
Pay once for a full clean slate. Optionally add ongoing monitoring to stay protected.
Control & Delete was created after our founder's personal data was breached — not once, but repeatedly. Addresses, phone numbers, family members, financial details: exposed across dozens of sites with no clear way to fight back. Frustrated by how broken and overwhelming the removal process was, they decided to take an active approach rather than wait for the next breach.
Over years of hands-on work, they developed a systematic process and deep knowledge of how data brokers operate — how they collect data, how to navigate each site's unique opt-out process, and how to stay ahead of listings that keep coming back. What started as a personal project became a service built for everyone in the same situation.
We will never sell, share, or monetize the personal information you give us. We collect only what's necessary to execute your removal — nothing more.
When we tell you your data will be removed, we remove it. When we say you'll get a report, you get a report. No vague promises — just documented results.
We take proactive measures to keep your information secure at every step — encrypted storage, strict data handling, and a team that has lived the consequences of doing this wrong.
"I Googled my name and found my home address, phone number, and the names of my family members on at least 20 different sites. After about three weeks with Control & Delete, nearly all of them were gone. The completion report showed exactly which sites were cleared. Worth every penny."Sarah M. Houston, TX — One-time cleanup plan
"I tried doing this myself for an hour and gave up — every site has a different opt-out process and half of them require a notarized ID. Control & Delete handled all of it and sent me a detailed report. The monitoring add-on is a no-brainer given how fast this data reappears."James K. Austin, TX — Cleanup + Monitoring plan
"I got the family plan for my retired parents and myself. My mom had her full address, daily routine, and estimated income published on multiple sites. It's all gone now. I check every month and nothing has come back. This service is legitimately important."Priya D. Dallas, TX — Family plan
We typically need your full name, current and past addresses (the more history the better), date of birth, and email address. This is the minimum required to locate your records across data broker databases. We never use your information for anything other than executing your removal — and we don't store it beyond the duration of your service.
First removals begin within 48 hours of your signup. A full sweep across all 200+ sites typically takes 2–4 weeks, as each data broker has its own processing time. Some process opt-outs in 24 hours; others take up to 30 days by law. You'll receive a full completion report once everything is done.
Data brokers regularly re-scrape public records, so your information can reappear — sometimes within weeks of removal. That's exactly what the ongoing monitoring add-on ($25/mo) is designed for. We re-scan every month and automatically re-submit removal requests for any listings that reappear. Without monitoring, a one-time cleanup is still highly effective — it just won't catch new listings that come up later.
Yes, entirely legal. Most data brokers are legally required to honor opt-out requests — many U.S. states have consumer privacy laws that mandate removal upon request. We follow each site's official opt-out procedure. We can't guarantee 100% removal across every site (a small number have no legal opt-out mechanism), but we'll document every site we've cleared in your completion report.
Each of the 200+ data brokers has its own opt-out process — many require email verification, identity confirmation, or phone calls. Doing it yourself typically takes 20–40 hours across all sites, and you'd need to repeat the process every few months. We handle all of it and monitor for re-listings so you never have to think about it again.
The family plan covers up to 4 people — any combination of adults in your household. Each person gets a full individual sweep across 200+ data brokers, and each receives their own completion report. The monitoring add-on can be added to a family plan at a discounted rate.
We'll get back to you at the email you provided within 24 hours — usually faster.
