FastPeopleSearch is a free people-search site that displays your name, address, phone number, email, age, relatives, and associates to anyone who searches for you. Because it is free, it gets significant traffic. Its pages rank well in Google search results.
FastPeopleSearch offers a free opt-out. It requires email verification. The process works. Re-listing is common.
How to opt out
Go to fastpeoplesearch.com/removal and search for your listing. Click your record to view the full profile. Click the removal option at the bottom of the page. Provide an email address for verification. FastPeopleSearch sends a confirmation email. Click the link to confirm your removal request.
Processing takes 24 to 48 hours. After that window, search for yourself on the site to verify the listing is gone. If you have multiple listings from different addresses, repeat the process for each one.
Why your information is there
FastPeopleSearch aggregates data from public records: voter registration, property records, court filings, and other government databases. It also pulls from commercial data broker databases. The site does not collect this information directly from you. It scrapes and compiles it from sources that are already public, then makes it searchable by name, address, or phone number.
This is why opting out of one site is not enough. The underlying data sources are still public. Other sites pull from the same places. Work through removals on BeenVerified, Whitepages, TruePeopleSearch, and Intelius as well.
Preventing re-listing
FastPeopleSearch continuously imports new data. If a public record is updated or a new data source becomes available, your profile can be recreated even after you opted out. Re-listing within 3 to 6 months is common.
There is no permanent one-time fix. The most effective approach combines opt-outs with upstream cleanup. If your address appears because of voter registration, check if your state offers a confidential voter program. If your phone number is pulled from old business filings, update those filings to use a different number. Our guide on removing personal information from Google covers upstream sources in detail.
Re-check FastPeopleSearch and the other major people-search sites every 2 to 3 months. It takes a few minutes each time. Catching a re-listing early means it spends less time indexed in Google.
Repeating this across a dozen brokers every quarter is the item that falls off everyone's list by month four. It stays on ours. Let's get to work.
