Get your home address off people-search sites.
Sites like Spokeo, Whitepages and BeenVerified sell your address, phone number and relatives' names to anyone who searches for you. StrikeMyData finds where you're listed, sends legal removal requests in your name, and tracks every one until it's gone.

How it works
- 1
See where you're listed
We walk you through each major people-search site, one at a time, with the search already filled in. You mark what you find.
- 2
We send the requests
One click sends a deletion and opt-out request to every site that lists you, under California and other state privacy laws, with your signed permission.
- 3
We track it to the end
Every request has a 45-day legal deadline. We read the brokers' replies, flag what needs you, and remind you to recheck, because listings often come back.

Simple pricing
StrikeMyData is free while we're testing.
Start with the free checkYour information stays yours
Your profile (your name, addresses, phone numbers, birth year, notes and brokers' replies) is encrypted with a key only your password unlocks. Not even we can read it. A copy of our database alone wouldn't reveal it. If you turn on email reminders, we also keep your contact email, encrypted with our own key, so we can send them. We never sell or share anything, and there are no ads.
Questions
California has a free deletion tool. Why pay?
California's Delete Request and Opt-out Platform (DROP) lets California residents send one deletion request to registered data brokers, and we recommend using it. StrikeMyData adds what it doesn't: a check of which people-search sites actually list you, requests you can see and prove, the brokers' replies sorted for you, 45-day deadline tracking, guides for sites that need a web form, rechecks when listings come back, and coverage for people in every state.
Is this legal? Do sites have to comply?
Yes. California and a growing number of states give you the right to have businesses delete your personal information and stop selling it, and to use an authorized agent to ask for you. Businesses generally must respond within 45 days. Laws differ by state, and some sites are slower or harder than others; we track each one and tell you when something needs you.
What can't you remove?
Public records such as court filings and property records, news articles, and anything you posted yourself. Some sites also insist on a web form or a confirmation email from you; for those we give you a step-by-step guide.
How long does it take?
Many sites remove listings within a few days to a few weeks. The legal deadline is usually 45 days. Listings can reappear when sites buy new data, which is why rechecks matter.
What if I forget my password?
When you sign up, you save a recovery key. It lets you set a new password without losing anything. Because your information is encrypted, nobody else can reset your password for you, including us.
How do I cancel?
On the Billing page, in two clicks. Your plan stays active until the end of the year you paid for. In your first 30 days, ask for a refund and you'll get one.
