What are the benefits of Intelius opt-out?
When you opt out of Intelius, you can protect your personal information from being easily accessible to strangers, reduce your risk of identity theft, prevent stalkers from finding your location, and limit the spread of your private details across the internet.
Can Intelius track me after the data removal request?
Yes, your information may reappear in their database as they continuously collect new public records. Additionally, other data brokers may still have your information, making complete privacy difficult without regular monitoring and removal requests.
What happens when you freeze Intelius?
