How to opt out of NumLookup

  1. 1

    Open the opt-out tool

    Go to numlookup.com/opt_out. The footer link is called "Do Not Sell / Information Opt Out", and the privacy policy links to the same tool.

  2. 2

    Submit your request

    Submit your request. NumLookup says the tool lets you request removal of your public listings from its search results.

  3. 3

    Email if the tool doesn't work

    The contact address in NumLookup's California registry entry is hello@numlookup.com.

Watch out for

  • NumLookup is a reverse phone lookup, so listings are tied to phone numbers. If you have more than one number, expect to repeat the request for each.
  • The About page sends removal requests for covered officials and individuals to a dedicated email address instead of the general tool.

What NumLookup holds about you

  • Phone numbers
  • Full name and aliases

What NumLookup is known to collect, not a check of your listing.

Does it come back?

NumLookup doesn't say whether listings return after an opt-out. Search your number again in a few months.

Your rights

NumLookup is on the California data broker registry. For 2024 it reports a median of 20 days to respond to deletion requests, and says it approved every opt-out request it received.

California: CCPA. If you live in California, the CCPA lets you ask a business to delete the personal information it holds about you and to stop selling or sharing it. Businesses generally have 45 days to respond.

California: the Delete Act. Data brokers that hold information on Californians must register with the state. California residents can use DROP, the state's Delete Request and Opt-out Platform, to send one deletion request to every registered broker at once.

Other US states. Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Texas, Oregon and a growing list of other states give residents a similar right to delete. Vermont, Texas and Oregon also make data brokers register with the state. Where no state law applies, the broker's own opt-out above still works for most people.

General information, not legal advice.
