Data Removal & Suppression
Continuous removal of personal information from data brokers, people search sites, and search engine results, with daily re-suppression as records reappear.
The Bottom Line
Continuous Removal and Suppression
Data Removal & Suppression locates personal information across data brokers, people search sites, and aggregators, verifies each record against the individual, and submits suppression requests to the brokers that originate it. Search engine results pointing to those records are de-indexed at the same time. Every source is scanned daily, any record that reappears is removed again, and each action is recorded in the 360 Strata™ platform.

Data Removal & Suppression: At a Glance
How It Works
The Removal Process
Enrollment & Enrichment
The details submitted at enrollment are expanded into a complete profile of the individual, including the name variations, prior addresses, and contact details needed to identify their records accurately.
Discovery
Data brokers, people search sites, aggregators, and search engines are scanned for records that correspond to the profile.
Verification
Each potential match is checked against the profile, and records that meet a statistical confidence threshold are confirmed by an analyst before any request is submitted.
Removed
Requests are manually submitted to the originating broker and to each site displaying the record, following the process each source requires.
De-Indexing
Within 24 hours of enrollment being confirmed, automation identifies live search results that display the individual’s personal information in the result description or link directly to one of their records, and requests are submitted to remove those results while source removals are underway.
After a source has removed a record, search engines can continue to display the page or a cached copy for an extended period, and a second set of de-indexing requests is submitted to remove those lingering results.
Re-Suppression
Sources are rescanned daily against the profile, reappearing records are suppressed again, and each action is logged in the 360 Strata™ platform.

When the Opt-Out Fails: Data Brokers, Assassination Culture, and the Rising Risk to Leaders
In June, a group of researchers from UC Irvine published a comprehensive audit of data brokers registered under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). The objective: test whether consumers could meaningfully exercise their legal right to opt out of data collection and sale. What they found is both alarming and somewhat validating: • Over 40% …

Data brokers refresh their datasets from upstream sources and create new records from property purchases, filings, and other activity, such as DMV records, voter registrations, and political donations. Daily rescanning identifies these records as they return.
