Registered data broker
Opt out of FamilySearch
FamilySearch is a data broker that collects and sells personal information. You have the right to ask it to delete yours. Delisted sends that request for you and follows up until the legal deadline.
What it is
- Category
- Registered data broker
- Websites
- familysearch.org
Sites like this typically expose:
- Personal information it collected about you and sells or shares
- Details vary by broker; its registry filing and privacy page describe what it holds
How opt-out works
- Method
- By email to the broker's privacy address
- How we find you
- This broker doesn't publish profiles, so we first ask whether it holds your data, and request deletion only if it does.

Delisted files this for you
As your authorized agent, we check whether FamilySearch holds your data before asking it to delete anything, then track the legal deadline and follow up until it passes. Anything only you can do becomes a clear task in your dashboard. We can't guarantee every broker complies, and we re-scan so re-listings get new requests.
