To opt out of TruthFinder, submit a suppression request through the PeopleConnect Suppression Center. One request covers TruthFinder, Intelius, US Search, and Instant Checkmate. TruthFinder is one of the largest people search sites, a type of data broker that makes personal details like addresses, phone numbers, relatives, and criminal records searchable by anyone.
How to Opt Out of TruthFinder: Step by Step
- Go to the PeopleConnect Suppression Center. Visit suppression.peopleconnect.us directly — or go to truthfinder.com, scroll to the footer, click “Exercise My Data Privacy Rights,” then “View Public Data Tools,” then “Manage My Suppression Rules.”
- Enter your email address. Agree to the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy and click Continue.
- Verify your email. Check your inbox for a confirmation email from PeopleConnect and click the verification link.
- Enter your date of birth. Complete the verification checkbox and click Continue.
- Enter your full legal name. Check the “This is my legal name” box and click Continue.
- Find your record. Browse the results to locate the profile that matches your information.
- Set your record to “Suppressed.” Select “Suppressed” from the “Desired Behavior” dropdown and click Save. This removes your profile from public view on TruthFinder and all PeopleConnect network sites.
- Verify removal. Search your name on TruthFinder after a few days to confirm your listing is gone. Also check Intelius, Instant Checkmate, and US Search: all are covered by the same suppression.
Why TruthFinder Removal Isn’t Permanent
Even after you successfully remove yourself from TruthFinder, your information can reappear. TruthFinder refreshes its database from public records and partner data sources on a regular cycle. Because TruthFinder is part of the PeopleConnect network, re-listing on one network site can cascade: a fresh data import to Intelius or Instant Checkmate may regenerate your TruthFinder profile even if you opted out of TruthFinder directly.
