How to Opt Out of NeighborWho.com

NeighborWho.com offers a manual opt-out process managed by BeenVerified. Parties do not need to have a NeighborWho.com membership, and opting out is free of charge. On the NeighborWho.com site, parties are presented with the opt-out option, and are then redirected to BeenVerified's opt-out page. The opt-out process for NeighborWho.com is fairly straightforward:

Step 1

Visit NeighborWho.com on your web browser.

Step 2

Scroll to the bottom of the page and select the 'Do Not Sell My Personal Information'

Step 3

Once redirected, select the button that reads 'Don't Sell My Info'

Step 4

Search your information on BeenVerified using your current legal first and last name or the number, street, city, and state of one of your property addresses. The search may take a few minutes.

Step 5

Find and select the record or records you want to make unavailable for purchase.

Step 6

Enter your email address in the provided space and select "Send Verification Email", Verify using the link on the verification email.

BeenVerified does not sell or otherwise use email addresses provided in the opt-out process without the consent of the party. Email addresses are provided solely for opting out of having one's public records sold on NeighborWho.com. Typically, opt-out requests take about 24 hours to take effect. To check, parties can search through the People Search and see if their records are still for sale. Although data partners are informed of opt-out requests, it is possible that a party's name could appear in another BeenVerified search. Failing to clear your browser history may be a cause of continuing to see your own information in the search results. Be sure to clear the history after 24 hours have passed from when the request was sent. If you are experiencing issues or have questions, BeenVerified can be contacted by email at privacy@beenverified.com, by telephone at (866) 885-6480, or by mail at:

What Difficulties Exist when Opting Out of NeighborWho.com

The opt-out process for NeighborWho.com is fairly simple and clearly laid out. As NeighborWho.com is a third-party website, their opt-out process is managed by BeenVerified. The process is fully online, so for parties who are not comfortable using the internet, it may be inaccessible. It takes 24 hours after sending the request for the opt-out to process and take effect. Essentially, BeenVerified receives the request and passes the information onto NeighborWho.

After opting out, it is still possible to see one's records if they were added after the opt-out request, or if the opt-out request was not able to match the records correctly. If this happens, parties can contact BeenVerified at privacy@beenverified.com or by phone at 1-866-885-6480. Parties can also contact BeenVerified by mail at:
