How do I remove a username from search results?

Can I remove a username from Spokeo's search results?

Spokeo username listings offer a comprehensive overview of a username, such as possible social media and web profile matches, profile photos, and more. We are not able to remove the entire username listing. However, we respect your privacy preferences and you can easily remove individual names associated with the username by removing your name or person profile. Removing your name or person profile will remove your name from appearing on the username listing.

2. Search for your name and narrow down the results to the profile with your specific information

• Tips: You can search for your name with a city and state to narrow down the results
  • Ex. "John Smith, Los Angeles, CA"

3. Once you have narrowed down the results to an individual listing, copy the URL
