What is Optery?
Optery removes your home address, phone number and other personal details from data broker and people search sites, and from Google search results. You start with a free account by giving your name, city, state and birth year. Optery then emails you an Exposure Report that uses screenshots to show where your profiles appear.
On the free Basic plan you do the opt outs yourself with self-service tools. Paid plans handle removals for you: they fill out opt out forms, solve captchas, click verification links and send legal demands. They also rescan every month, because brokers often relist people. The higher tiers add a human Privacy Agent, before-and-after Removals Reports and custom removal requests.
Optery is based in the San Francisco Bay Area and holds SOC 2 Type II certification. It fits individuals, families and high-risk people such as executives, journalists and victims of harassment. A business offering with SSO/SCIM and a public API is also available.
