BeenVerified Operates Multiple Sites
BeenVerified also operates PeopleLooker and other white-label people search sites. Opting out of BeenVerified’s main site does not automatically remove you from all affiliated properties. Each may require a separate removal request, meaning one “company” can require multiple opt-outs. This multi-brand strategy is unique to BeenVerified among the major people search sites and makes it one of the most time-consuming to fully remove yourself from.
Combined with regular data refreshes, a single BeenVerified opt out only addresses one site at one point in time.
