How to Remove Your Information from FastPeopleSearch
FastPeopleSearch is one of the largest free people-search sites, publishing home addresses, phone numbers, relatives, and past addresses pulled from public records. Its opt-out form is free and doesn't require a phone call — but it has documented limits worth knowing before you rely on it alone.
Quick overview

What is FastPeopleSearch
FastPeopleSearch is a free people-search platform, live since 2017, that compiles home addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, relatives, and past addresses from public records into a searchable profile. Its Better Business Bureau filing lists it as a small Boston, MA business, and data broker registry filings separately name the operator behind the site as Mississippi Tornado Alley LLC — both are on-record details, though they aren't confirmed to describe the exact same corporate structure.
It's a legitimate, long-running data broker rather than a scam operation, and its core search and opt-out form cost nothing — the site separately sells optional detailed background reports, but paying for or skipping those has no bearing on removing your free listing. The same underlying public-record data also commonly feeds other people-search sites, so a FastPeopleSearch listing rarely exists in isolation.
How to remove yourself
This is free and doesn't require the phone verification some other broker sites ask for — though it does involve a fair amount of CAPTCHA-clicking along the way.
- 1
Start the opt-out request
Go to fastpeoplesearch.com, scroll to the footer, and click "Do Not Sell My Personal Information" to reach the opt-out form — there's no link to it from the homepage search results.
- 2
Submit your name and email
Enter your first name, last name, and email address, then complete the CAPTCHA check and submit — expect to clear more than one CAPTCHA before this step goes through.
- 3
Confirm by email and locate your record
Click the confirmation link sent to your inbox (check spam if it doesn't arrive) — the whole process depends on this click. Then find the exact listing that matches you and submit the final removal step.
If it doesn't fully solve the problem
A completed FastPeopleSearch opt-out only clears FastPeopleSearch — the same public-record data commonly feeds other people-search sites at the same time, and each of those needs its own separate opt-out. There are also reports of requests from residents of states without a comprehensive consumer privacy law being denied or left unprocessed, a pattern that shows up repeatedly in the site's own complaint history alongside more routine removal disputes.
Like other data brokers, FastPeopleSearch also rebuilds its database from public records on a rolling basis, so a listing that was successfully removed can resurface weeks or months later.
Between the multi-site spread, the denial pattern, and the re-listing risk, one-time manual opt-outs tend to need repeating — which is exactly the gap ongoing monitoring across the full broker list is built to close.
Common questions
Does FastPeopleSearch require phone verification like WhitePages does?
No — FastPeopleSearch's opt-out form only requires email verification, not a phone call, unlike WhitePages' process. You'll enter your name and email, complete a CAPTCHA, then confirm through a link sent to your inbox before locating and removing your exact listing. Third-party trackers note the CAPTCHA step can repeat more than once, but there's no phone verification required.
Will removing myself from FastPeopleSearch also remove me from other people-search sites?
No. FastPeopleSearch pulls from the same pool of public records that dozens of other people-search sites also draw from, so clearing your FastPeopleSearch listing has no effect on identical listings living on other domains. Each of those sites needs its own separate opt-out request — clearing FastPeopleSearch is never a one-site-fixes-all solution.
How long does FastPeopleSearch take to process an opt-out?
Most third-party trackers — including DeleteMe, Security.org, and PrivacyOn — report removal within about 72 hours of completing email verification, roughly matching Incogni's estimate of three days. At least one tracker, Onerep, has recorded cases taking up to nine days instead. FastPeopleSearch hasn't published its own official guaranteed processing window, so treat these third-party estimates as approximate rather than fixed.
Is FastPeopleSearch connected to any of the other sites in this guide?
It looks that way. FastPeopleSearch's BBB filing lists Robert Miller as the business's principal and dates it to July 19, 2017 — BBB's separate filing for USPhoneBook lists that same principal name and that same formation date. The two aren't confirmed to be one identical legal entity, but the matching BBB records point to common ownership behind more than one people-search brand, which is worth knowing if you're clearing your name from one of them.
Will my information come back after I opt out?
Likely, yes. FastPeopleSearch rebuilds its listings from public records and commercial data on a rolling basis, so a profile that was successfully removed can resurface weeks or months later once source records refresh. Multiple independent trackers confirm this same re-listing pattern, identical to what happens with WhitePages and Spokeo — periodic rechecking is the realistic approach.
