Frequently Asked Questions
How is Personal Data Remover different from the Digital Footprint Portal?
- The Digital Footprint scan shows which sensitive information, such as passwords, SSNs, and infected devices, you have publicly exposed across the dark web, social media, data brokers, and more. It is a tool for evaluating your risk based on your data exposure.
- Personal Data Remover enhances privacy protection by telling you which specific people search sites and data brokers are selling your information and helps you remove those details from their databases. Removing your information reduces your risk of stalking, relentless spam and robocalls, and even identity theft.
Should I have both Personal Data Remover and Identity Theft Protection?
- Yes! The services work together.
- Personal Data Remover removes your data from publicly available people search sites and data brokers’ databases.
- Identity Theft Protection services alert you when your data has been found in the dark web, exposed in data breaches, or misused to impersonate you. Identity theft protection also includes insurance for when an identity thief has financially impacted you. For the most comprehensive protection, we encourage you to get our Ultimate plan, which is the best value.
Can I entirely erase my online data and opt out of data brokers?
There is no way to fully erase your online data. New data brokers emerge all the time and existing ones continue to harvest your data over time. Personal Data Remover helps you stay ahead of the data sellers by monitoring and automatically removing your information from their databases. In addition, we are continually refreshing our data broker list as they emerge. Read more here about what your digital footprint is and how to manage it.
