Quick Answer

To opt out of Peoplelookup.com, go to suppression.peopleconnect.us/login, enter a disposable email and verify it, then provide your date of birth and legal name. Select your matching record, choose Suppressed from the Desired Behavior dropdown, and click Save. Peoplelookup.com redirects to USSearch, which is part of the PeopleConnect network. One request also removes you from Intelius, TruthFinder, Instant Checkmate, and USSearch. If you have already submitted a suppression through PeopleConnect for any of those sites, you are already covered here too.

Step-by-Step Opt-Out Guide (7 Steps)

1

Go to the PeopleConnect Suppression Center

Peoplelookup.com does not have its own opt-out page. It redirects to USSearch.com, which – like Intelius, TruthFinder, and Instant Checkmate – is owned by PeopleConnect, Inc. All removals are handled through the PeopleConnect Suppression Center. If you have already used this portal to suppress your record on any of those sites, your Peoplelookup record is already hidden and you do not need to repeat the process.

Action Required

Open your browser and go to https://suppression.peopleconnect.us/login

Use incognito or private browsing mode to prevent cached data from interfering with the suppression tool.
2

Enter Your Email Address and Agree to the Terms

The portal requires an email address to send a verification link before it will show any search results or allow any changes. No account is created.

Action Required

Enter a disposable email address, check the box to agree to the terms of service, and click Continue.

Use a service like Guerrilla Mail or SimpleLogin so your main email address is not stored in PeopleConnect's system.
3

Click the Verification Link in the Email

PeopleConnect sends a verification email immediately. You cannot proceed to the name search until this step is complete.

Action Required

Open the email from PeopleConnect and click the verification link. Check your spam folder if it does not arrive within 2 minutes.

The verification link expires after a short period. Open it promptly. If it expires, return to the portal and start again with the same or a different email address.
4

Enter Your Date of Birth

The suppression tool uses your date of birth alongside your name to find your specific record. Enter it exactly as it appears on official documents.

Action Required

Enter your date of birth in the format requested and click Continue.

If no records appear for your date of birth, try the year before or after. Public records sometimes contain incorrect birth year data.
5

Enter Your Legal Name and Any Alternate Names

First and last name are required. Adding previous names or name variations helps the tool surface all records linked to you.

Action Required

Enter your first name and last name. Middle name is optional. Add any alternate names you have been listed under, then click Continue.

Adding alternate names is especially useful if you have changed your name or if records were created before a legal name change.
6

Select Your Record and Set It to "Suppressed"

The tool displays profiles matching your name and date of birth. Select the one that matches you, then change the status to Suppressed and save. This single action removes your data from all five PeopleConnect sites simultaneously.

Action Required

Click on your matching profile. In the Desired Behavior dropdown, select Suppressed, then click Save.

If multiple records appear, suppress the most accurate one first and then email [email protected] to request bulk suppression of the remaining profiles.
7

Confirm Removal After 48 Hours

PeopleConnect does not send a removal confirmation. Check the sites manually after 48 hours to verify your records are no longer visible.

Action Required

After 48 hours, search your name on USSearch.com (where Peoplelookup.com redirects) and on Intelius.com. Your record should not appear on any of the five PeopleConnect sites.

If your record is still visible after 5 business days, log back in to the suppression portal and confirm the status still shows Suppressed. If it does, contact PeopleConnect at [email protected].

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I opt out of Peoplelookup.com?

Go to suppression.peopleconnect.us/login, enter a disposable email and verify it, then provide your date of birth and legal name. Select your matching record and choose Suppressed from the Desired Behavior dropdown, then click Save. Removal takes up to 48 hours. The process is free and no account is required.

Why does Peoplelookup.com redirect to USSearch?

Peoplelookup.com is part of the PeopleConnect, Inc. network and redirects to USSearch.com for its search results. Both sites share the same database and are covered by a single suppression request through the PeopleConnect Suppression Center.

If I already opted out of Intelius or TruthFinder, do I need to do this again?

No. If you have already submitted a suppression through the PeopleConnect Suppression Center for any of the five sites – Peoplelookup, USSearch, Intelius, TruthFinder, or Instant Checkmate – your record is already suppressed across all of them. You do not need to submit a separate request.

What sites does PeopleConnect suppression cover?

One suppression request through the PeopleConnect Suppression Center covers five sites: Peoplelookup.com (via USSearch), USSearch.com, Intelius.com, TruthFinder.com, and Instant Checkmate.

How long does Peoplelookup removal take?

Suppression is typically applied within 48 hours of saving your request. PeopleConnect does not send a removal confirmation, so check the sites manually after 48 hours.

Is the opt-out process free?

Yes, completely free. No account or payment is required. Do not pay any third-party service that claims to remove you from Peoplelookup or USSearch on your behalf.

Will my data reappear after suppression?

Yes, it can. New public records such as a change of address, court filing, or updated voter registration can cause your profile to reappear. Check the sites every 3 to 6 months and resubmit the suppression if needed.

Suppression Set – 5 Sites Protected

Your suppression request has been saved. Your record will be hidden on Peoplelookup.com (USSearch), Intelius, TruthFinder, and Instant Checkmate within 48 hours.

Check Back in 48 Hours

Search your name on USSearch.com and Intelius.com after 48 hours to confirm removal across the PeopleConnect network. If any record is still visible after 5 business days, log back in to the portal to verify the status, or contact [email protected]. New public records can cause your data to reappear, so recheck every few months.
