ZoomInfo Opt-Out

What is ZoomInfo?

ZoomInfo is a comprehensive business-to-business (B2B) data and talent intelligence platform that creates detailed professional profiles for individuals and company pages for organizations. The platform is widely used by employers, recruiters, and sales teams to identify talent, verify professional backgrounds, and research businesses.

ZoomInfo's profiles are built by aggregating information from public records, business filings, web sources, and commercial databases, sometimes spanning up to a decade of historical data. Because the data is collected from overlapping sources and updated at different intervals, some profiles may contain outdated, incomplete, or inaccurate information.

When a ZoomInfo profile is accurate and current, it can benefit both professionals and employers by improving visibility, recruitment matching, and career opportunities. The platform is designed to help organizations discover skilled professionals and support long-term hiring and growth strategies.

Despite these potential advantages, many individuals prefer to opt out of ZoomInfo to limit public exposure of their professional details. The sections below explain how to request suppression of individual (professional) profiles, including options for removing both publicly visible and internally indexed data from ZoomInfo's systems.

Requirements to Remove My Name From ZoomInfo

As the term suggests, data suppression means limiting how personal information is shared or sold rather than deleting it outright. What data is shared and under what conditions depends heavily on a company's privacy policy and applicable state laws. For example, data brokers operating in California are subject to different legal obligations than those serving residents of Wisconsin or Nevada. In the case of ZoomInfo, opt-out requests are applied consistently across both public-facing profiles and internal datasets. This means that opting out of ZoomInfo's public listings also restricts internal data sharing with affiliates and third-party partners.

Consumers may submit opt-out requests to suppress their individual professional profiles using the methods outlined below. While suppression prevents verified data from being displayed or redistributed, it does not stop new records from being created from future data sources. Additionally, ZoomInfo does not control how data already shared with external partners is used, so consumers may need to contact individual businesses or platforms separately to request further removals.

Business owners should note that company profiles cannot be opted out. ZoomInfo continues to publish and maintain business-related information in accordance with its data usage and compliance policies.

There are no special eligibility requirements to opt out of ZoomInfo's data sharing. The process is free and, in most cases, can be completed in just a few minutes. For added privacy, consumers may choose to use alternative contact information, such as a secondary email address or virtual phone number, when submitting opt-out requests to reduce future marketing exposure.

ZoomInfo Opt-Out Preliminaries and Where to Start

ZoomInfo is not a credit bureau or a regulated consumer reporting agency, so it is not subject to the same legal standards that govern credit or official background reports. The information displayed in ZoomInfo profiles is aggregated from multiple sources and is not independently verified, which means the data should not be relied upon for formal or high-stakes decision-making. While contact details may be useful in some cases, accuracy can vary.

Consumers residing in California and Virginia generally receive priority consideration for opt-out requests under state privacy laws. Residents of Nevada, Colorado, and Utah may also request opt-outs, though protections are more limited. Individuals outside these states can still submit opt-out requests, but approval is not guaranteed, and requests may be denied at ZoomInfo's discretion. If a privacy request is rejected or additional clarification is needed, consumers can contact ZoomInfo's live customer service team at 1-833-901-0859 for assistance.

The guide below outlines four available methods to request an opt-out from ZoomInfo. Consumers with straightforward requests may use the official online form or submit a mail-in request. Those with more complex situations, such as multiple records or additional context, may prefer the email option. Requests involving multiple profiles or data related to minors are best handled by calling a live representative. All opt-out methods described below carry equivalent effect when approved.

How We're Opting-Out of ZoomInfo: Guided Tutorial

Call the Live Privacy Representatives

Consumers who prefer live, professional assistance can contact ZoomInfo privacy representatives by phone. ZoomInfo routes incoming calls directly into a live support queue rather than voicemail, so callers should expect to wait on the line until a representative becomes available.

ZoomInfo provides multiple phone numbers for privacy and opt-out support:

• 1-833-901-0859 - Listed on ZoomInfo's customer service page. Calling this number places you directly into the live support queue. Remain on the line until a representative answers.

• 1-360-718-5630 - Available on the Contact Us page. This number routes callers to the same live queue and may provide an estimated wait time message.

• 1-866-904-9666 - Found in the website footer. This number includes an automated menu; when prompted, select option 4 to be transferred to the privacy support queue.

Calling is recommended for complex opt-out requests, including multiple profiles, verification issues, or records involving sensitive circumstances.

Email an Opt-Out Request to ZoomInfo's Privacy Team

Consumers who want a documented, electronic paper trail should submit their opt-out request by email to ZoomInfo's privacy team. Unlike many people-search websites that publish multiple email addresses for different privacy actions, ZoomInfo provides a single email contact for opt-out and privacy-related requests.

ZoomInfo's privacy policy does not clearly define what it considers acceptable identity verification information, which means requests that lack sufficient detail may be rejected as unverifiable. To improve the likelihood of approval, consumers should include clear, comprehensive identifying information that establishes ownership of the professional profile beyond reasonable doubt.

Use the template below as a starting point for your email request. Copy and paste the text into your email client, then replace the highlighted placeholders with accurate, up-to-date personal information before sending. Providing complete and precise details helps expedite review and reduces the chance of follow-up requests or denial.

Print the ZoomInfo Opt-Out Request and Mail It

Alternatively, consumers may submit an opt-out request by postal mail to ZoomInfo's offices. This method provides a formal, verifiable paper trail and is often useful for recordkeeping or potential legal reference. To streamline the process, copy and paste the email template from the section above into a document editor and revise it into a written letter.

Mailed opt-out requests are considered official submissions and are generally reviewed as promptly as possible, although processing typically takes three to four weeks. While slower than online or email options, this approach offers durable documentation that can be cited if needed.

To format the request as a proper business letter, place the office address in the top-left corner of the page, followed by the date and then the greeting. At the end of the letter, leave sufficient space between the closing and your printed name to include a handwritten signature in black ink.

Use the Official Form to Opt-Out of Individual Public and Private Data Sharing

The most efficient way to opt out of ZoomInfo is by using the official online opt-out form. This method is streamlined and does not require a profile URL, although having the direct link to your ZoomInfo profile can help ensure the correct record is identified and processed.

Consumers should be prepared to use an alternate email address for verification purposes, as confirmation steps are required to complete the request. While this guide does not detail how to locate a profile URL, since it is not mandatory, users who want added accuracy can obtain it by navigating to their ZoomInfo profile and copying the page URL.

To begin the opt-out process, open the ZoomInfo Privacy Center in a new browser tab and follow the on-screen instructions.

Step One: Start the ZoomInfo Opt-Out Process

The ZoomInfo Privacy Center provides a brief overview of the opt-out workflow. The process involves verifying your email address, submitting a removal request, and then waiting for a confirmation email once processing is complete. Enter an active email address and click the orange "Get Code" button to begin.

Step Two: Retrieve Your Verification Code

Check the inbox of the email address you entered and locate the message sent by the ZoomInfo Team. The email contains a four-digit verification code. If you use Gmail, be sure to check the Promotions or Spam folders in case the message is filtered.

Step Three: Confirm Your Email

Return to the ZoomInfo Privacy Center page and enter the four-digit code into the fields provided. Once entered, click the orange "Confirm" button to continue.

Step Four: Submit the "Remove My Profile" Request

You will be taken to the "Remove My Profile" form. If you used a newly created or alternate email address, the system may display an "unable to find" notice. In most cases, entering your first name, last name, and email address is sufficient to submit the request. Additional fields are optional.

Scroll to the bottom of the form and click "Submit" to complete the opt-out request.

After submission, the form will close and a confirmation message will appear. Processing typically takes a few days, and ZoomInfo will send a follow-up email with the results. ZoomInfo states that the information provided during this process is used only to fulfill the opt-out request and is not shared with affiliates or used for marketing purposes.

Verify the Changes Before Declaring Everything "Done"

A ZoomInfo opt-out request may take up to 45 days to be fully processed. Once completed, ZoomInfo profile pages associated with your information should no longer appear in Google search results or other public listings controlled by ZoomInfo.

It is important to note that opting out does not prevent new records from being created in the future as ZoomInfo updates its databases with newly available information. For this reason, consumers should verify that the opt-out was successful and plan to recheck their information at least once per year to ensure no new profiles have been generated.

This guide reflects the opt-out procedures outlined in ZoomInfo's privacy policy as of 2025.
