Removing yourself, step by step

  1. 01

    Members: sign in at classmates.com, footer "Do Not Sell My Personal Information," then Privacy section 3 "Updating or Removing Your Information" → select reason → "REMOVE REGISTRATION."

  2. 02

    Non-members: browse state → city → your high school → find your profile/yearbook page; copy the URL.

  3. 03

    Email privacy@classmates.com with the URL, your name, grad year, and a removal/redaction request.

  4. 04

    For yearbook photos, explicitly request redaction of your image/name from the scanned pages.

  5. 05

    Confirm removal and request search-engine cache refresh (Google Refresh Outdated Content tool).

Data brokers re-list. Check again in 30–60 days.

Re-listing risk for this site: Low for deleted accounts; Medium for yearbook content (new scans re-add you)
