How long does ZabaSearch take to remove my information?

About 30 days, once they have your request. If nothing has changed after that, send it again — a request that goes unanswered is common and is not a refusal.

Do I have to prove who I am to opt out of ZabaSearch?

Yes. ZabaSearch verifies the request by physical_mail before they will act on it.

Does it cost anything to opt out of ZabaSearch?

No. Opting out is free and you can do it yourself — the steps above are the whole process. Nobody needs to be paid to send this request.

What does ZabaSearch publish about me?

The listing can carry your full name, your home address and your phone number. Not every listing carries all of it.

Will ZabaSearch put my listing back?

It can come back. ZabaSearch rebuilds listings from fresh public records, so a removal is a point in time rather than a permanent state. That is how the industry works, and it is why the request has to be sent again when it happens.

Then it happens again

Opting out of ZabaSearch does not stop the next company, and it does not stop ZabaSearch rebuilding your listing from a fresh property record or voter file later. That is not a trick; it is how the industry works. We have catalogued 712 of these companies, and being removed from one of them is one of 712.

Doing it by hand is genuinely possible. Keeping it done is the part almost nobody sustains, and that is the only honest reason to pay anyone for this.
