Datanyze compiles professional contact data (work emails, direct dials, job titles) and sells it to sales teams, recruiters, and marketers. Your work identity is the product.
What is Datanyze?
Datanyze (a ZoomInfo company, acquired 2018) is a B2B data broker providing 84M+ email addresses, 63M+ direct dials, and 120M+ people profiles plus technographic data, primarily for marketing prospecting.
What data Datanyze has on you
Datanyze compiles professional contact data that sales teams, recruiters, and marketers buy access to. Here is what a typical profile includes:
- full name
- work email, personal and work where available
- direct dial/phone, landline and mobile, sourced from commercial providers and public records
- job title
- employer
- technographic data
- company data
- location
Not every profile contains all categories. Depth depends on what public records exist in your jurisdiction and how much commercial data has been linked to your identity. For most adults with any public record history, Datanyze has enough to paint a detailed picture.

The catch: your data comes back
The most important thing to understand about Datanyze removal: it is temporary.
Removal also opts you out of the sale of profile info. Datanyze does not remove company information, and it shares ZoomInfo's continuous re-scraping and contributory dynamics. Daniel's Law and state-employee protected persons can email stateremoval@datanyze.com.
Data can return after an opt-out if the broker later ingests a new record. Whether and when that happens varies by company and source. Periodic checks can catch re-listings; a monitoring service can re-file when supported.
This is the part Delist handles. Datanyze is one of dozens of sites holding your information, and removals do not stay removed on their own. Delist finds where you are exposed, files each opt-out, and re-checks for re-listings — re-filing when your data comes back.

- Other brokers are not affected. Removing yourself from Datanyze does nothing to ZoomInfo, Comparably, RingLead, or the dozens of other sites where your data is exposed. Each requires its own opt-out.
- Cached copies may persist. Google and other search engines may cache your Datanyze profile for days or weeks after it is removed. Use Google's content removal tool to request de-indexing.
- Multiple profiles may exist. If you have lived in multiple states, changed your name, or have multiple phone numbers, Datanyze may have built separate profiles for each variation. Search and opt out of each.
Tips for a successful opt-out
Use a dedicated email. Use an alias or a separate account for removal requests. Keeps your primary inbox out of Datanyze's system and keeps confirmation emails organized.
Search every angle. Do not just search by name. Try phone number and email too. You may have more than one listing.
Document the request. Screenshot the confirmation page and save the confirmation email. Useful if you ever need to prove you requested removal.
