How to Remove Yourself from Radaris (2026 Step-by-Step Guide)

Radaris is one of the most detailed people-search sites operating in the United States. If someone searches your name, they can find your home address, phone number, relatives, past addresses, and even property records — all for free. The good news is you can remove your listing at no cost. The bad news is it will likely come back.

This guide walks you through the exact steps to opt out of Radaris in 2026, what to expect after you submit your request, and why removal alone is never enough.

What Is Radaris?

Radaris is a data broker that collects personal information from public records, social media platforms, court documents, and other data sources. It then organizes that information into detailed profiles and makes them searchable by anyone.

A typical Radaris profile includes your full name, current and past addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, relatives and associates, age range, property records, and employment history. Over 2 million people search Radaris every month — which means your profile is getting views whether you know it or not.

Radaris is completely legal. It operates by aggregating publicly available data. But that does not mean you have to stay listed.

What Radaris Shows About You

Before you opt out, it helps to understand exactly what Radaris may be showing about you:

• Full name and age range
• Current and previous home addresses
• Phone numbers — mobile and landline
• Email addresses
• Relatives and associates linked to your profile
• Property ownership records
• Employment and education history
• Social media profile links
• Court and public records

Radaris also has a separate section called Mentions — which aggregates web content mentioning your name. This requires a separate removal request from your main profile.

How to Remove Yourself from Radaris — Step by Step

The removal process is free and takes about 10 to 15 minutes. Here is exactly what to do.

Step 1: Search for Your Profile on Radaris

Go to radaris.com and search your full name. Add your city and state to narrow down the results if your name is common. Browse through the search results and find the listing that matches you — there may be multiple profiles if you have lived in different states or used different name variations.

Click on the correct profile to open the full listing page.

Important: copy the full URL from your browser address bar while you are on your profile page — not from the search results page. The opt-out form requires the specific profile URL, not the search page link.

Step 2: Go to the Radaris Opt-Out Page

Scroll to the very bottom of any Radaris page and look for a link labeled "Remove My Information" or "Do Not Sell My Info." Click it.

Alternatively, go directly to the privacy control page. If you cannot find the footer link, look for a "Control Info" option on your profile page itself.

Step 3: Submit Your Removal Request

On the opt-out page, paste the profile URL you copied in Step 1 into the form field. Enter your email address — use a secondary email if you prefer not to submit your primary address to the form. Solve the CAPTCHA and click Submit.

Tip: if you see an option labeled "opt" in the form, select the choice that suppresses the listing rather than a marketing preference option. These are different things.

Step 4: Confirm via Email

Check your inbox for a confirmation email from Radaris. Open it and click the confirmation link. You may be asked to solve another CAPTCHA and click Confirm on the page that loads.

Check your spam folder if the email does not arrive within a few minutes. Save the confirmation email as proof that you submitted the request — you will need it if you have to follow up.

Step 5: Wait and Verify

Radaris typically processes removal requests within 24 to 48 hours, though some requests take up to 7 to 14 business days depending on whether you have multiple listings or verification steps are required.

After waiting, search for your name on Radaris again to confirm your profile has been removed. If it still appears after 14 days, resubmit the request using the same profile URL.

What About the Mentions Section?

Radaris has a separate area called Mentions that aggregates web content referencing your name — news articles, forum posts, directory listings, and similar content. Your main profile opt-out does not automatically remove your Mentions listings.

To remove Mentions content, you need to contact Radaris directly via their help center or customer support email and request removal of specific Mentions entries. This process is separate from the main opt-out form.

What Happens After You Opt Out

Once your removal is processed, your profile will no longer appear in public searches on Radaris. However, this removal is not permanent.

Radaris continuously pulls new data from public records, social media platforms, and third-party data feeds. Your information can reappear within weeks or months — sometimes faster if you appear in new public records activity such as a property transaction, court filing, or voter registration update.

This is why setting a reminder to check and re-opt out every 3 to 4 months is essential if you are managing this manually.

Why One Site Is Never Enough

Radaris is one site. There are over 1,000 data broker and people-search sites operating in the United States right now — all collecting, selling, and sharing your personal information independently of each other.

Removing yourself from Radaris does nothing about your listings on WhitePages, Spokeo, BeenVerified, Intelius, MyLife, TruthFinder, and hundreds more. Each site has its own opt-out process, each takes 10 to 20 minutes, and each will re-list your data within months.

Doing this manually across all sites would take dozens of hours — and you would need to repeat the entire process every few months indefinitely.

The Easier Option

Privoria handles the entire process for you. Our team submits removal requests to 1,000+ data broker sites on your behalf, monitors your listings every month, and follows up whenever your data reappears.

You do not have to track down opt-out pages, solve CAPTCHAs, or manage confirmation emails. We handle everything and send you a monthly report showing exactly what was removed and what is still being processed.

What is the difference between my profile and Mentions on Radaris?

Your main profile is the listing showing your address, phone number, and personal details. Mentions is a separate section showing web content that references your name. Both require separate removal requests — the main opt-out form only removes your profile, not your Mentions entries.

Resubmit the opt-out request using the same profile URL. If the problem persists, contact Radaris customer support directly and reference your original confirmation email as proof of your prior removal request.
