How to remove yourself from yellowbook.com
For the People Search product (yellowbook.com/people/): known aliases, current/previous addresses, phone numbers, marital status, birth month/year, family members, plus BeenVerified-sourced records such as bankruptcy, driving, and criminal record indicators. (The rest of yellowbook.com is a conventional local-business directory, which is a separate, non-personal-data product.)
Owner / network: Hibu Inc. (corporate parent of Yellowbook); the "People Search" vertical specifically is powered by BeenVerified, Inc. as a named third-party partner
Removing yourself, step by step
- 01
Go to https://www.yellowbook.com/people/ and search your name to find your profile URL.
- 02
Copy the profile URL/details.
- 03
Go to https://www.beenverified.com/svc/optout/search/optouts (the link Yellowbook itself designates for this).
- 04
Search for and select your record in BeenVerified's opt-out tool, then follow their verification steps (typically email-based).
- 05
Confirm via any email link BeenVerified sends.
- 06
This suppresses the underlying BeenVerified record, which should also remove/prevent the yellowbook.com People Search listing.
Data brokers re-list. Check again in 30–60 days.
Re-listing risk for this site: Medium — since Yellowbook mirrors the BeenVerified index for this feature, a listing can reappear if BeenVerified re-aggregates from public records after the opt-out window.
