If so, you know just how public your information is, even when you think you\u2019re doing all the right things to keep your personal details off the Internet. Unfortunately, people search sites thrive on the sale of your information, making them quite adept at gathering and disseminating aspects of your personal profile to data brokers.<\/p>\n<p>But who would care about your personal information? And is it really all that bad to have it out there? These are good questions to ask yourself because it sends you down a rabbit hole of discovery to see just how damaging people directories can be to something you may covet most\u2014your privacy.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_a_People_Search_Site\"><\/span>What is a People Search Site?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Just as the name implies, a people search site offers users the ability to search for individuals using a number of different details. You can type in someone\u2019s name and get a list of records that match. Alternatively, a search can be filtered down by plugging in additional details, like a last-known address or phone number.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a touch of innocence to the idea if you consider possibly using it to get the scoop on a new potential roommate or if you\u2019re trying to find an old friend. However, for every bit of good a public records site can do, there are many more additional ways it could be used to harm or hinder an individual.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Damaging_Your_Reputation\"><\/span>Damaging Your Reputation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The information on such sites is mined from many sources, including state and federal records, to enhance the accuracy of the data. There are a number of ways your information can be used to hurt you, the most personal of them being an ex-husband or lifelong rival having access to your current location.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a bigger picture at play, too. The information on people finder sites can be compiled into reports that are then sold to third parties. While the purchased data is often used to help companies improve their targeted marketing, some buyers may use it to simplify identity theft and access personal accounts.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Key_Players\"><\/span>The Key Players<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<figure style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-144884\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2023\/02\/31d19a8e.png\" alt=\"Listing of different people search sites with descriptions and other indicators\" width=\"1200\" height=\"934\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Incogni<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Many sites are farming your data, but data protection services like Incogni target some of the most popular offenders so that they can virtually wipe your personal information from nefarious sources.

In many cases, it only takes a week for brokers to start responding and, within the month, you\u2019ll start to see your information disappear from these sites. Brokers that don\u2019t respond to this initial request will receive follow-up requests until they comply.<\/p>\n<p>So long as you\u2019re an Incogni member, they will keep this process going, regularly sending out notices to prior and new brokers to keep your information out of online databases.
