SITUATION

Someone published your personal information. The source is still live.

Doxxing relies on data broker sites as the supply chain. The screenshots, forum posts, or social media shares are the distribution — the broker listings are the source. Removing broker listings doesn't undo what's already been shared, but it cuts off the supply for the next person who searches your name. We remove your data from 1,000+ broker sites simultaneously.

The screenshots came from somewhere. That somewhere is still online.

Doxxers don't hack databases. They search people-search sites, copy what they find, and share it. The broker listing is the original source — and it's still live.

The broker listing is the original source

Doxxers don't hack databases. They search people-search sites, copy your address, phone number, and family names, and share them. As long as the broker listing is live, anyone can do it again — a second doxxer, a copycat, or someone who sees the original post months later and decides to look you up themselves.

Removing one listing isn't enough

Your information appears on dozens to hundreds of broker sites. Even if the doxxer used one specific site, anyone following up can find the same data — and more — on the others. A name search returns results from sites you've never heard of, each with your address, phone, age, and relatives listed.

Your household is in the same listing

Broker profiles include "associated people" — spouse, children, parents, roommates. A doxxing incident targeting you exposes everyone at your address. Their names, ages, and the shared address all appear on your profile, making them collateral targets without ever being searched directly.

Remove the source, not just the symptoms

1

Scan your exposure immediately

We scan 1,000+ data broker and people-search sites to find every listing with your name, address, phone, and family details. You see exactly what a doxxer sees — and which sites it came from.

2

Submit removal requests at scale

Removal requests go out across all identified sites simultaneously. Automated opt-out forms, legal deletion requests under CCPA/GDPR, and operator-group resolution for networks of sites that share the same database. Every site gets a request, not just the one that was used against you.

3

Verify and escalate

Each removal is verified by revisiting the listing. Brokers that don't comply receive legal escalation. You don't need to follow up — we track every submission and confirm when the listing is actually gone.

4

Monitor for re-listings

Brokers rebuild profiles from public records. After the initial cleanup, continuous monitoring catches re-listings before anyone can use them. If your data reappears, we re-submit removal requests automatically.

Common questions after being doxxed

No. We remove the source material from data broker sites. We can't delete social media posts, forum threads, or screenshots shared by others. But removing the broker listings means the next person who searches your name won't find the same information.
If you feel physically threatened, yes. Doxxing is a crime in many jurisdictions. Data broker removal and law enforcement serve different purposes — we handle the data supply chain, law enforcement handles the criminal behavior.
Scanning is immediate. Removal requests go out within hours. Broker processing times vary (hours to weeks per site), but we submit to all simultaneously. The fastest brokers process within 24-48 hours.
Continuous monitoring. Brokers re-list from public records regularly. We detect re-listings automatically and re-submit removal requests without you needing to check.
