Canada Company Registry opt-out
canadacompanyregistry.com How to remove yourself from Canada Company Registry
Canada Company Registry is a private directory that republishes federal corporation data. It's not the government registry. Its Contact us page points to a dedicated data request page for updating a company's details, deleting data or hiding an address.
On average, Serus sends about 184 removal requests per person, 89% of them to data brokers, so expect Canada Company Registry to be one of many.
