How to opt out of AdvancedBackgroundChecks
AdvancedBackgroundChecks (advancedbackgroundchecks.com) publishes personal records and accepts removal requests through an online form. You can do this yourself, for free. Here is what it involves.
Before you start
- You will need your name and the address shown on the listing.
- They email you a confirmation link. The request does nothing until you click it, so check spam if it doesn't arrive.
- AdvancedBackgroundChecks states removals take 45 days per the site's own copy.
The opt-out page

Removal is not permanent. Brokers re-acquire records from the same public and commercial sources they used the first time, so a listing taken down today can reappear. We re-send requests to AdvancedBackgroundChecks every 60 days for our customers; doing it yourself means putting a recurring reminder somewhere you will actually see it.

That is one broker. Our registry holds 151 that accept opt-out requests, and each one comes back on its own schedule. We do this every 60 days and keep the receipts.
