How to remove yourself from Xome
Also known as Xome Inc., Xome Holdings
Xome is a real estate auction and valuation company, and it says it doesn't sell personal information. If you're not a Xome customer, its policy says it holds at most aggregated data that can't reasonably be linked to you. California residents can ask for access or deletion through the CCPA page.
On average, Serus sends about 184 removal requests per person, 89% of them to data brokers, so expect Xome to be one of many.

Watch out for
- If you used Xome to bid, register or get a valuation, expect some records to stay for legal or financial reasons.
- Xome's California registry entry is under Xome Leads LLC and describes a business-to-business operation, so the entity you write to may differ from the consumer site.

Your rights
Xome states it doesn't sell personal information, so an opt-out of sale isn't offered the way it is on people-search sites. Deletion and access requests are handled 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.
