Counted from the Opt-Out Directory on this site. When OptOutHQ has removal results of its own, we'll publish those too.

Two minutes, no signup

How exposed are you?

Six questions. Every “wrong” answer is another list your name is circulating on.

Ever gotten a pre-approved credit card offer in the mail?

Is your address visible on Whitepages or a similar people-search site?

Registered on DoNotCall.gov in the last 5 years?

Ever clicked “unsubscribe” and kept getting emails?

Do catalogs you never signed up for show up addressed to you?

Received a data-breach notification letter in the past two years?

Everything we turn off

The junk doesn't respect category boundaries. Neither do we.

Physical mail

The mailbox goes quiet.

Most junk mail traces back to a handful of industry lists almost nobody has heard of. We line them up in the order that matters, link you straight to each form, and track every renewal date — because these registrations expire, and the mailers are counting on you forgetting.

  • DMAchoice registration, deep-linked and tracked (it covers most promotional mail for 10 years)
  • Prescreened credit-offer opt-out via OptOutPrescreen — guided, because your SSN belongs to you, not us
  • Catalog Choice, Valpak, Vericast and Deceased Do Not Contact — each linked and tracked
Guided, step by stepRenewal reminders

Email

Unsubscribe by forwarding.

Every other email tool wants OAuth access to read your inbox. We give you a personal alias instead: forward any spam to it, and we parse the hidden List-Unsubscribe header and execute the one-click unsubscribe the sender is legally required to honor. We never see your inbox, because we never asked.

  • Your own address — you@unsub.optouthq.com — from day one
  • RFC 8058 one-click unsubscribes, executed and logged with the server's response
  • Sender history, so you can see who actually stopped (and who we escalated)

Phone

Your phone stops performing.

No tool can promise zero scam calls — anyone who does is selling you something dishonest. What works is layers: the federal registry to stop legal telemarketing, your carrier's free screening tools configured properly, and reporting that actually routes to the FTC. We sequence all of it and track what's done.

  • Do Not Call registration walkthrough, with confirmation tracking
  • Carrier tools set up right — AT&T ActiveArmor, T-Mobile Scam Shield, Verizon Call Filter
  • Spam-text reporting (7726) and the FTC complaint form when someone breaks the rules
Guided, 2 minutes eachTracked in your dashboard

Data brokers

Off the people-search sites.

Your name, address, age, and relatives are a cheap lookup on dozens of sites you've never visited. The tracker walks you through the twelve people-search sites that cause most of it, each linked to its own removal form. Paid plans add automated removals through a data-removal partner, with every disclosure logged — because brokers quietly re-list people, and a removal you can't verify is just a promise.

  • Whitepages, Spokeo, BeenVerified, Radaris and eight more — linked, with per-site status
  • A disclosure log: which of your details went to which broker, and when
  • Automated partner removals and re-listing checks with paid plans, at launch

# forward any spam to your alias and this happens automatically

Senders have been legally required to honor one-click unsubscribes since 2024. Almost nobody uses the header — it's invisible in every mail client. We built a product on it.

How it works

You shouldn't need eleven websites to be left alone.

01

Tell us once

The minimum info needed — name, address, email. Every field comes with a “why we ask” link, because you should never wonder.

02

We flip the switches

Your personal unsubscribe alias does the email side on its own. The registries and people-search sites get a guided, linked, two-minute flow each — and paid plans add automated broker removals through a removal partner.

03

It stays off

A tracker for every opt-out, a log of what we disclosed and to whom, and a reminder email before a registration expires. They expire. Nobody remembers. We do.

The command center

Opt-outs are a state, not an event

Other services sell you a cleanup. The dashboard's job is to keep the switches off — and prove it.

Mock data, real layout — this is the product we're building, not a stock illustration of it.

The unsubscribe tool that never asks for your inbox.

Zero inbox access

Unsubscribe from any email by forwarding it to your personal alias. We can't read your inbox — we never asked for it.

100% subscription revenue

We've never sold data, and our Terms prohibit us from starting. If we break that promise, you can sue us with our own contract.

Full deletion, immediately

Type DELETE, press one button, and your account and every record tied to it are gone — immediately, with a confirmation email.

Read our security page — it's written in English

One subscription, four categories

Everyone else covers one silo. The junk doesn't work that way.

Fair questions

Asked by privacy people, answered like we mean it.

How do I remove my information from the internet?

Realistically: opt out of the industry mail lists (DMAchoice, OptOutPrescreen), register on DoNotCall.gov, and file removal requests with each data broker that lists you — there are hundreds, and they re-list people over time. You can do all of it yourself for free (our Opt-Out Directory shows you how), or OptOutHQ does it from one dashboard and keeps re-checking so it stays done.

Does OptOutHQ need access to my email inbox?

No — and that's the whole point. You get a personal forwarding alias; send any spam to it and we execute the unsubscribe using the message's own List-Unsubscribe header. We never connect to your mail provider, never request OAuth scopes, and can't read your inbox even if we wanted to.

How is this different from DeleteMe or Incogni?

Those services do one thing: data broker removal. It's a real problem and they're real products — but your junk doesn't stop at brokers. OptOutHQ covers data brokers and junk mail, spam email, and robocalls in one place, at $79/yr versus DeleteMe's $129, with a log of every disclosure we make on your behalf.

What's a data broker, and why am I on their sites?

Data brokers compile public records, purchase histories, and breached data into profiles — your address, age, phone, relatives — and sell lookups for a couple of dollars. You're on them because the data exists, not because you signed up. U.S. privacy laws give you the right to demand removal; brokers just make exercising it tedious. Tedious is automatable.

Will the Do Not Call Registry actually stop robocalls?

It stops legal telemarketers — which is real but partial, since scammers ignore it by definition. That's why we layer it with your carrier's free screening tools and proper reporting. Anyone promising zero robocalls is lying to you; we promise the full stack of what works, configured correctly and tracked.

How long do removals take?

Email unsubscribes execute in seconds. Guided registrations take a couple of minutes each, and junk mail tapers off over the following months as mailers refresh their lists. Data-broker removals vary by broker — many want an email confirmation first, which lands in your Action Needed queue. Every request is timestamped in your dashboard, so 'pending' always means something specific.

What happens to my data if I cancel?

Your completed opt-outs stay yours — we can't un-remove you. Your account keeps the free tier (tracker, alias at 10/mo). If you delete your account entirely, your records are deleted immediately, backups age out within 90 days, and you get a confirmation email. One button, no retention dark patterns.

Why isn't this free?

Because free privacy tools have a way of becoming the product. Unroll.me was free; it monetized by selling anonymized inbox data. Our only revenue is subscriptions — $79/yr for Pro — and our Terms prohibit data sales outright. You're the customer, which is precisely the feature.
