Nuwber Opt-Out

What is Nuwber?

Nuwber is a people search and consumer report website that publishes aggregated public records for general viewing. Like similar data broker platforms, it compiles information from multiple public sources, including government databases and online records. Because this data is aggregated rather than verified at the source, Nuwber reports can be incomplete, outdated, or misleading. This is especially true for records that reference criminal history, which are more prone to misinterpretation or incorrect associations. While consumers may be able to correct certain details, the information often remains publicly searchable unless an opt-out request is submitted.

Nuwber records are not created in isolation. The underlying data is generated by a larger broker, TruthFinder, which supplies information to Nuwber and other affiliated platforms. Opting out through TruthFinder can suppress records across multiple connected sites, while opting out directly through Nuwber limits exposure only within its own search results. The step-by-step instructions below explain how consumers can remove or suppress their information from Nuwber's public listings.

Nuwber's Requirements for Opting Out

There are no eligibility requirements to opt out of Nuwber's public search results. The process is free, does not require account creation, and only requires access to an email address. Submitting an opt-out request places a suppression flag on the record, meaning the information is hidden from public search results rather than permanently deleted. Because TruthFinder maintains records on a rolling basis, typically up to 12 months, consumers should plan to return annually to submit new suppression requests as records are refreshed or regenerated.

The opt-out process requires an email address for verification, but Nuwber does not cross-check emails against existing TruthFinder accounts. This allows users to safely use an alternative or masked email address. Using a secondary email is strongly recommended, as it reduces spam, limits targeted marketing, and protects primary email accounts from potential data exposure or future security breaches.

Where to Start Your Nuwber Opt-Out

There are two ways to submit an opt-out request to Nuwber: calling the automated support line or completing the online removal process outlined below. Nuwber does not accept opt-out requests by mail or direct email. That said, consumers can still contact the support team by email if their information remains visible after an opt-out request has been submitted. The sections that follow explain when calling or emailing is appropriate, along with a step-by-step walkthrough of the official online removal tool.

Requests submitted through the online tool typically take effect immediately, with only limited exceptions. Even after removal, however, search engines like Google may continue to display a result link for a short time. In these cases, the link usually leads to a broken or unavailable page. Without additional action, Google's removal process can take up to two weeks to fully clear the listing. The guide below explains how to speed up this process so the record disappears from search engine results as quickly as possible.

How to Remove Information From Nuwber: Step-by-Step

Call Julie, the Automated Virtual Assistant

One option for completing a Nuwber opt-out is by phone. Consumers can call during business hours to either interact with the automated system or request a live representative. Nuwber's support line operates Monday through Friday, from 7:00 am to 5:00 pm PST. Calls placed outside these hours are typically routed to the automated menu or a voicemail prompt. Verbal responses are required to move through the process, regardless of which option is chosen.

To begin, call Nuwber customer support at 1-(844)-912-1292. After connecting, listen to the menu options and press 1 to enter the data privacy queue. This option connects callers to Julie, Nuwber's automated virtual assistant, which guides users through the "remove my information from Nuwber and Google" process using voice prompts. Callers who prefer speaking with a live agent can instead press 3 to be transferred directly to customer service.

Remove a Listing from Nuwber (Profile URL Required)

For most users, this is the most reliable way to opt out of Nuwber. The process has two clear phases: first, locating the correct profile URL, and second, submitting that URL through the removal form. The URL is essential because it allows Nuwber's system to identify the exact record to suppress. Without it, requests may fail or target the wrong profile. It's also smart to save the profile URL for reference in case automated processing stalls and follow-up support is needed.

Step One

Start by opening Nuwber.com in a new browser tab. Use the main search form to locate your record. For best results, enter a full name and city, then click the periwinkle Search button.

Step Two

Before results load, Nuwber will display its "Terms" and "Conditions". Check the I Agree box to activate the continue button, then click it to proceed.

The results page will show multiple listings. The first result is often a sponsored profile from TruthFinder; clearly labeled as sponsored. Skip this entry. Sponsored results do not contain usable Nuwber profile URLs. Instead, focus on listings that include a periwinkle View Details button on the right side.

Step Three

Find the record that most closely matches your information. Once located, right-click the View Details button and copy the link address. Alternatively, you can right-click the large name on the left side of the listing and copy that URL. Either method works, as long as the link points to a Nuwber profile page.

Step Four

With the profile URL copied, open the Nuwber Removal Form in a new tab. Paste the URL into the provided field. Nuwber profile links follow a consistent format; if the pasted link looks significantly different, it may be incorrect. After pasting the URL, click the tangerine Opt Out button to continue.

Step Five

You'll be prompted to confirm the request by entering an accessible email address. After entering the email, click the periwinkle Remove button. This action triggers an automated confirmation email from Nuwber.

Step Six

Open the confirmation email sent by Nuwber. Inside, you'll find a Confirm Request button and a backup confirmation link. Click the button or paste the link into a new browser tab to finalize the request.

Once confirmed, the browser will display a message indicating the removal request was successful. At that point, the opt-out process is complete.

Expedite Google's Suppression Bot for Faster Effects

Nuwber refreshes its profile crawler roughly every two weeks, which means removals are not always immediate. If that timeline feels too slow, there's a way to speed things up directly through Google. This method requires the same profile URL used in the Nuwber removal process, so if you no longer have it, repeat Steps One through Three from the removal guide to retrieve it. Once you have the URL, open Google Search Console in a new browser tab.

Step One

Select the blue New Request button on the left side of the page. A small pop-up window will appear.

Step Two

Right-click inside the URL field and paste the copied Nuwber profile link. Once the URL is entered, the Submit button will activate. Click it to send the request. After submission, the pop-up will immediately reflect the request status. Click outside the window or select OK to close it.

All submitted requests will now appear on the main console page. Initially, the status will show as "Pending". Once Google processes the request, the status updates to confirm completion.

Email the Support Team if Records Appear Again

Some users discover multiple listings tied to their name or notice new records generated over time by automated systems. An opt-out request should suppress existing data, but if listings continue to surface, Nuwber recommends contacting their support team. Send a message to support@nuwber.com and include the relevant profile URL to help speed up resolution.

Confirm the Successful Request and Check Back Later

Verifying a successful suppression is straightforward. Return to Nuwber and run the same search you used originally. If the request worked, no matching records will appear, and the site will prompt you to try different search details.

That said, opting out of Nuwber is not a one-time task. The removal only affects Nuwber and its direct affiliates. Because data records are maintained on roughly 12-month cycles, new listings can be created over time. To stay ahead of future exposure, plan to return once a year and submit additional suppression requests as needed. This guide reflects the opt-out processes outlined in Nuwber's privacy policy as of 2025.
