AFTER STALKING

Your address is still exposed. See every site showing it, free.

By Delist.ai · Last updated June 2026

Data brokers still publish whatever the stalker knew: your address, family connections, workplace, and daily patterns. Closing that off, and keeping it closed, is the privacy work after a stalking incident.

WHY THIS MATTERS

The information they had hasn't gone anywhere

Recovery from stalking takes many forms. The privacy piece is real and worth doing. Even with a protective order in place, your broker-published data is still searchable by anyone, including the person you don't want finding you.

If you've moved, brokers will find the new address

Voter rolls, vehicle registrations, utility records, and lease records feed broker databases on a rolling basis. A new address typically becomes searchable on people-search sites within weeks of a move unless the broker side is addressed.

Family members can bridge to you

Brokers link records by shared addresses and family relationships. If a parent or sibling's profile lists you as "associated," your address comes through that bridge regardless of your own privacy work.

Old records persist

Broker databases retain address history going back many years. Old jointly-held addresses, old workplaces, and old emergency contacts stay searchable. Each becomes a potential bridge.

Re-listing is the rule, not the exception

Brokers refresh databases continuously. A one-time removal lapses within 30–90 days as new records flow in. Monthly full scans are what keep the closure durable.

Legal steps are their own process. The data-broker work is separate, and you can start it right now.

HOW DELIST HELPS

Closing the broker layer, durably

1

Scan the brokers

Our scan searches the open internet for data brokers, people-search sites, and aggregators publishing your information. You see exactly what's still searchable about you.

2

Remove current and historical records

We file removal requests across the brokers in our coverage, addressing your current address, address history, family-relationship records, and old workplace records.

3

Keep your account isolated

Single-person plan by default. Family plans are opt-in only when household members are aligned with your safety plan.

4

Scan monthly

Brokers re-add data from new public records within weeks. We run a full scan every month and re-submit without you having to remember.

FAQ

Common questions

Assume yes. Whatever they knew before, including your address, employer, family, and daily patterns, is still searchable on broker sites. If you've moved, they may not have your new address yet. That's the window the privacy work tries to keep closed. Search yourself on the major people-search sites to see what's currently published.
No. Removal requests are between you and the broker. If the stalker is watching a specific broker profile, they'll see it disappear within 24–72 hours. That's not a notification to them. It's the same thing they'd see if anyone else asked that broker to remove their data. Most brokers receive thousands of removal requests, and one more isn't a trackable signal.
If you haven't already, yes, usually before everything else. A protective order is the legal foundation that other privacy tools build on. Your state's bar association, courthouse, or domestic-violence advocate can walk you through filing. WomensLaw.org has state-specific guides at womenslaw.org.
Protective orders themselves are public records in most states, which can be a complication: they may include your address. Many states allow address-confidentiality requests as part of the protective-order filing or through an Address Confidentiality Program. Your state's victim advocate or family-law attorney can advise.
Most brokers process within 24–72 hours of submission, some take 30–45 days. Data wholesalers take the full FCRA 30 days. The fastest brokers clear within days. The slower wholesalers take longer, but they matter because they're upstream of much of the broker layer.
