Radaris Opt-Out

What is Radaris?

Radaris is a people search website that aggregates contact details and public records into searchable profiles. People often use it to look up relatives, former classmates, coworkers, neighbors, or to run background checks and reverse phone number searches. With just a quick search, users can pay to access what the platform labels as public information about almost anyone.

The data on Radaris is not created by the company itself. It is collected from public websites, data brokers, and other third party sources, then combined and layered with additional details to form broad consumer profiles. What sets Radaris apart from many other people search sites is its inclusion of online mentions, possible social media accounts, and traces of public internet activity. The result is an aggregated profile that may look comprehensive, even though some details can be outdated, inferred, or simply wrong.

How Do I Remove Information From Radaris?

Removing your information from Radaris is possible, but the exact requirements depend on how and where you submit the request. The process shifts a bit because Radaris has to comply with different state privacy laws, and those laws shape how opt-out requests are handled.

For California residents, the process is more specific. Under the California Consumer Privacy Act, companies must offer clear data privacy options to state residents. As a result, Radaris provides a California-specific opt-out form. This form requires a profile URL, which is the unique web page that hosts your aggregated Radaris report. Without that URL, Radaris may reject the request due to missing or insufficient identifying information.

Profile URLs are fairly easy to find. They appear during the standard Radaris search process and can be copied directly from the browser once your profile loads. California residents and anyone submitting an opt-out request by email will need this URL. It is a non-negotiable step in those cases.

If you live outside California and are not opting out by email, there is another option. Radaris offers a general population opt-out form that does not require a profile URL. Instead, it requires creating a Radaris account. Some people are comfortable with that. Others are not.

If you prefer not to create an account, emailing the Radaris privacy team is usually the better route. For those who decide to use the general opt-out form anyway, it is often recommended to use an email alias or masked email address. That small step can help limit further data exposure while completing the removal request.

Where to Start Your Radaris Opt-Out

Before you begin, it helps to know that Radaris offers more than one opt-out path, and the right starting point depends on where you live and how much friction you are willing to tolerate.

The guide below walks through each option step-by-step. If you do not live in California and want to avoid creating a Radaris account, emailing your opt-out request is usually the cleanest approach. California residents, on the other hand, can use a shorter online form designed specifically to meet state privacy requirements. U.S. residents outside California also have access to an online form, but it requires creating and verifying a Radaris account before the request can be completed.

Radaris also maintains a live customer support phone line at 1-(855)-723-2747. Representatives are available Monday through Friday from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm ET, and Saturday from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm ET. Calling outside these hours routes you to an automated system with voicemail.

Live agents can be especially helpful in more complex situations. This includes removing multiple profiles, handling records involving minors, or addressing criminal records that have been legally expunged. In those cases, speaking with a real person can save time and reduce back-and-forth.

The Complete Guide to Opting Out of Radaris

How to Obtain a Radaris Profile URL (Email and California Residents)

If you are a California resident or you plan to submit your opt-out request by email, your first task is finding your Radaris profile URL. There is no way around this part. Radaris uses the URL to identify exactly which aggregated record you want removed.

Once you copy the profile URL, save it somewhere easy to find. A notes app, a document, anywhere you can reference later. Most opt-out requests go through without trouble, but having a paper trail helps. Especially if things drag on longer than expected. Here is how the process usually unfolds.

Step One: Run a Search on Radaris

Open Radaris.com in a new browser tab. Choose a search type and enter the requested details. For accuracy, it helps to fill in all available fields, even if it feels a little uncomfortable. Then click the search icon, the magnifying glass on the right side. This part feels routine. Still, take your time.

Step Two: Identify the Correct Profile

Scroll through the results and look for the profile that most closely matches your information. Some listings may include incorrect or outdated details. That often happens, since Radaris pulls data from public sources that are not always accurate.

Ignore any results marked as Sponsored or highlighted with a light blue pinstripe. Those links redirect to TruthFinder and are not your Radaris profile. You are looking for the organic listing that actually belongs to you or at least claims to.

Step Three: Copy the Profile URL

Once you locate the correct record, right-click on the large blue name or on the View Profile button beneath it. Select the Copy link address or the equivalent option in your browser. This copies the full profile URL to your clipboard.

That is it. Paste the link into the California opt-out form or your email request, and then save it in a document for reference. If Radaris asks for clarification later, having that URL handy makes everything smoother.

Email Suppression Requests (Profile URL Necessary)

All consumers can submit a suppression request by email to Radaris, but the correct address depends on where you live. California residents must send their request to removals@radaris.com. All other U.S. residents should use customer-service@radaris.com.

As of 2023, Radaris does not publish detailed instructions for email-based opt-outs beyond providing the appropriate inbox. That leaves some room for interpretation. To be safe, it is strongly recommended to include your profile URL and enough identifying information for Radaris to verify the record belongs to you.

Using an alternative or masked email address is also a good idea. It helps reduce unnecessary exposure and keeps your primary inbox cleaner, just in case follow-up messages appear later.

To prepare your email, first obtain your Radaris profile URL using the steps outlined above. Then include that link in the body of your message along with verifiable details.

Most people search websites that accept a combination of your full name, previous or current addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses as sufficient verification. The goal is clarity, not oversharing. Just enough information to point them to the right record and no more.

California Residents Can Opt-Out Easily and Quickly (Profile URL Necessary)

If you live in California, opting out of Radaris is fairly straightforward. Radaris offers a quick opt-out form designed to comply with California privacy law, and in most cases the request is verifiable within a few days. To begin, open the Radaris California opt-out link in a new browser tab. Keep your profile URL handy. You will need it immediately.

Step One: Submit the Online Request

When the page loads, the first field asks for your profile URL. Paste the link you copied earlier into this space. Then enter your name and an alternative email address in the remaining fields. Many people prefer not to use their primary email here, and that is reasonable.

Complete the CAPTCHA, then click the orange Send Request button. Once submitted, the next screen confirms that Radaris received your request and directs you to check your inbox.

Step Two: Confirm the Request by Email

Open the email account you used and look for a message from customer-service@radaris.com. Inside, click the first blue confirmation link. This step is required. Without it, the opt-out does not move forward.

After clicking the link, a final confirmation page should load. At this point, a Radaris administrator must manually verify and process the suppression request. Reaching this page means your part is done. From there, it is simply a matter of waiting for the removal to take effect.

US Residents Outside California Have A Longer Form (Account Needed)

For U.S. residents outside California, Radaris provides a dedicated How To page that explains the opt-out process. It works. It is just long. The entire flow is automated, but account creation is mandatory, and there is no real workaround. Verification is the reason.

One thing to pause on before starting is phone verification. If you plan to keep your primary contact details separate, this is the moment to set up an alternative email address and phone number. Doing that first makes the rest feel less intrusive. Here is how the process usually plays out.

Step One: Find the Control Page

Open the Radaris How To page or start from the Radaris homepage. Scroll all the way to the bottom until the background shifts from white to dark blue. In the first column of links, click Control Your Info. This takes you to the opt-out workflow.

Step Two: Review Data Management Details

The next page explains how Radaris collects and manages consumer data. Read through it, then click the green Continue button.

Step Three: Review Public Record Sources

Another page lists common public record distributors. Once you are done reviewing it, click Continue again.

Step Four: Search for Your Profile

On the final preliminary page, enter your first and last name in the search field. Click the orange Search button to load results.

Step Five: Select the Correct Record

Search results may include one profile or many. Some listings may show aliases or similar names. Take your time and locate the profile that matches your information. When you find it, click the orange Control Info button.

Step Six: Create or Access an Account

You will now be prompted to log in, create an account, or use Google sign-in. Creating an account is the most common option. Many people choose to use an alternative email address here.

Enter your name, email address, and password. Solve the CAPTCHA, accept the terms, and click Create My Account.

Step Seven: Verify Your Phone Number

Once inside the account dashboard, Radaris requires identity verification. Enter an accessible phone number and wait for the passcode. When the code arrives, enter it as instructed.

Click the blue Submit button to continue.

Step Eight: Open Account Controls

A pop up window appears after verification. Select View My Account to proceed.

On the refreshed page, choose Make profile private. The page reloads again, usually with a subtle visual change confirming the update.

Radaris customer support typically recommends waiting up to 48 hours before searching again. If the opt-out was successful, the profile should no longer appear. If it does, waiting another day or clearing your browser cache often resolves the issue.

Remove My Name From Radaris and Verify the Request

Removing your name from Radaris works on a retroactive basis. The platform can only suppress information that is currently visible in its database. It cannot prevent new data from appearing in the future, especially for people with a long or active online footprint. New records can surface as public information updates elsewhere on the internet.

Radaris also cannot control what other data brokers collect or publish. An opt-out only applies to Radaris itself. Because of that, taking a proactive approach matters. Checking people search websites regularly and repeating the opt-out process when needed is part of the reality here.

Many consumers choose to revisit Radaris once a year to place new suppression requests on any newly surfaced data. It is not ideal, but it is effective.

This guide reflects the opt-out processes outlined in Radaris' privacy policy as of 2025. If procedures change, the general principle remains the same. Verify removals, keep records of your requests, and follow up when something reappears.
