Lookify Opt Out Guide
Finding your name, phone number, or address listed on Lookify.io can feel invasive—especially if you never gave permission for it to appear online. The good news is that you can have your personal information removed by contacting Lookify directly. This guide walks you step-by-step through the process. Or, if you’d prefer to automate data removal across Lookify and hundreds of similar sites, Vanish Me can handle it for you automatically.
What is Lookify?
Lookify.io is a people search and data aggregation website that compiles information from various public sources. It displays details like names, phone numbers, addresses, and sometimes relatives or business affiliations. Like many similar platforms, Lookify claims to make it easier to “find people” or verify contact information, but this also means it collects and redistributes data that individuals might prefer to keep private.
Lookify sources its listings from public databases, third-party marketing data providers, and other websites that share open consumer information. Because of this, even if you’ve never used Lookify directly, your details may still appear on the platform. Removing your listing helps reduce exposure to unsolicited calls, data scraping, and unwanted personal profiling online.
How to Remove Your Information from Lookify (Step by Step)
Step 1: Head over to the Lookify privacy rights request page (here). For “type of request”, select “opt out of sale/sharing”. Then, fill in the form with the rest of your information and click “submit”.
Step 2: Head over to your email inbox and copy + paste the code that you were emailed. Then select “complete removal”.
Step 3: You’ll then be redirected to the Lookify home page. A green completion banner will temporarily pop up on the bottom of the page, confirming that your information has been removed.

How Long Does Lookify Take to Remove Your Info?
Most Lookify data removal requests are processed within 7 to 14 business days, if not immediately. After deletion, it can take an additional week for search results and cached data to update. Once the process is complete, your listing should no longer appear in public search results on Lookify.
However, as Lookify aggregates data from multiple third-party providers, your personal information may reappear if those sources continue to share it. For a more permanent solution, Vanish Me can automatically monitor and re-submit opt-out requests on your behalf.
Continue Protecting Your Privacy
Removing your information from Lookify is a strong start, but your personal data is likely distributed across other marketing and analytics companies as well. Many data brokers collect and trade information for advertising, real estate insights, and consumer profiling. To fully protect your privacy, it’s worth addressing these additional sources next:
NeighborWho Opt Out Guide – Remove property ownership and address data from real estate search databases.
LexisNexis Opt Out Guide – Delete your legal, insurance, and financial records from one of the largest data analytics networks.
CoreLogic (Cotality) Opt Out Guide – Suppress your property and mortgage data from CoreLogic’s extensive data systems.
Equifax Marketing Opt Out Guide – Remove your data from Equifax’s marketing databases used for targeted advertising.
