Slintel 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 Slintel?
Slintel (a 6sense company) is a sales-intelligence and technographic data provider that compiles company and contact data plus buying-intent signals for B2B prospecting.
What data Slintel has on you
Slintel 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
- phone number, 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, Slintel has enough to paint a detailed picture.
How to opt out of Slintel: step by step
- Open the Slintel OneTrust privacy opt-out web form
- Enter your identifying details (name, email, request type)
- Submit and complete any email verification step
- Also submit a request through 6sense's Privacy Center since Slintel data may also reside in 6sense systems
Slintel is one site. Delist scans for your personal information across the internet and shows exactly where you are exposed, in minutes.

After you complete the opt-out, Slintel typically processes removals within GDPR/CCPA: typically up to 30-45 days. By broker standards, that is relatively fast — many sites take 7 to 45 days.
The catch: your data comes back
The most important thing to understand about Slintel removal: it is temporary.
As a 6sense-owned dataset, removal is subject to the same legitimate-interest basis and re-collection dynamics; data may persist in parent 6sense systems unless separately requested.
This is not unique to Slintel. Every data broker works this way. Your opt-out removes one listing. It does not stop the data pipeline. The only way to stay off permanently is to repeat the process every few months yourself, or use a service that detects re-listings and re-submits automatically.
What Slintel's opt-out does not cover
- Other brokers are not affected. Removing yourself from Slintel does nothing to 6sense, 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 Slintel 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, Slintel 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 Slintel'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.
Or skip the manual work entirely
You are likely listed on dozens of professional data brokers like Slintel, each with its own opt-out process. Delist scans for your personal information across B2B, marketing, and people-search sites, and handles removal in one place.
