How long does Spokeo take to remove my information?

Spokeo typically processes opt-out requests within 24-48 hours after email verification.

Do I need to search by email only to opt out of Spokeo?

No. You must first search for your profile on Spokeo.com (by name, phone, email, or address), copy the profile URL, and submit it on the opt-out page.

Will my data reappear on Spokeo after opt-out?

Yes, it can reappear due to updates from public records sources. You may have multiple listings (each with a unique URL) that need separate opt-outs. Periodic checks are recommended.

Is the Spokeo opt-out permanent?
