411.info Opt Out Guide
Discovering your name, phone number, or address listed on 411.info can feel intrusive, especially if you never agreed to have your details posted publicly. Fortunately, you can request to have your information removed. The instructions below walk you through the entire process. If you’d rather skip this and let a privacy service handle removals automatically, you can use Vanish Me to remove your data from 411.info and hundreds of similar data brokers.
What is 411.info?
411.info is an online directory and people search platform that provides contact details, business records, street address lookups, and area-based listings. The site compiles information from various data sources, including public records, online directories, third-party data brokers, and business registration databases.
Although the site is marketed as a tool for helping users connect with local businesses and individuals, it often displays personal contact details such as full names, phone numbers, and home addresses. Because this information may come from publicly available sources and data-sharing networks, your details can appear on 411.info even if you’ve never interacted with the site directly.
Removing your information from 411.info helps reduce unwanted calls, spam, and unwanted visibility of your home address. Once removed, the listing should no longer be accessible in public search results on the site.

Step 1: Go to the 411.info website. Use the search bar to look up your name, phone number, or business name. Click “Find” to search.
Step 2: Click on the profile that matches your identity and confirm it contains your personal information.
Step 3: Copy the URL of your listing. You’ll need this link when submitting your removal request.
Step 4: Send an opt-out email. Use the contact email listed on the privacy page (usually privacy@411.info) to request removal. Here is a template you can copy and paste:
Subject: Formal Demand for Removal of Personal Information – Unlawful Opt-Out Barrier
To the 411.info Privacy & Compliance Team,
I am submitting a formal request to have my personal information removed from your database. I am aware that your current process requires payment in order to access or remove records. This constitutes an unlawful barrier to exercising my privacy rights.
Under applicable data protection laws, including but not limited to the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), Virginia CDPA, Colorado Privacy Act, Connecticut Data Privacy Act, and the Utah Consumer Privacy Act, consumers have the right to request deletion or opt out of the sale or disclosure of their personal information *at no cost*.
Requiring payment to locate or remove my personal information is inconsistent with these regulations and may be interpreted as willful non-compliance.
I am requesting the immediate deletion of all personal records associated with:
Full Name: [Your Full Name]
Current Address: [Your Address]
Former Addresses (if applicable): [List]
Email: [Your Email]
Date of Birth (optional): [MM/DD/YYYY]
Please confirm in writing within 10 business days that my data has been deleted from your platform, and that no further sale or distribution will occur.
Thank you,
[Your Name]
Step 5: Submit your request and wait for confirmation. You should receive a reply confirming that your request is being processed.
Step 6: Check back in about one week. Search the site again to ensure your listing has been removed. If it is still visible, reply to the same email chain and request an update.

How Long Does 411.info Take to Remove Your Info?
411.info generally processes deletion requests within 7–14 business days. In many cases, removal happens sooner, especially when full listing details and the listing URL are included in the initial email.
However, because the site pulls data from external sources, your information may reappear in the future if the external systems refresh. To avoid repetitive manual removals, consider using an ongoing data removal service like Vanish Me, which continually monitors and re-submits opt-outs so your data stays private.
