Removing yourself, step by step

0 of 3 done
  1. Open https://lookups.io/data-claim (footer link "Data Claim") and follow the form there
  2. Do not use email for removal: the privacy policy says removal requests sent to support@lookups.io are ignored (that address is for technical support only)
  3. Because the policy states Lookups.io only aggregates, also file opt-outs with the underlying people-search sources that show your record
