Watch out for
- The same operator runs PersonSearchers, PrivateRecords.net and BackgroundCheckers.net, so a removal on one site doesn't show up as done on the others.
- The registry lists a mailing address and a phone number, (888) 270-9304, as other ways to reach the company.

Your rights
As a registered data broker in California, Private Records LLC handles deletion and opt-out of sale requests under the CCPA.
California: CCPA. If you live in California, the CCPA lets you ask a business to delete the personal information it holds about you and to stop selling or sharing it. Businesses generally have 45 days to respond.
California: the Delete Act. Data brokers that hold information on Californians must register with the state. California residents can use DROP, the state's Delete Request and Opt-out Platform, to send one deletion request to every registered broker at once.
Other US states. Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Texas, Oregon and a growing list of other states give residents a similar right to delete. Vermont, Texas and Oregon also make data brokers register with the state. Where no state law applies, the broker's own opt-out above still works for most people.
