How to Remove Yourself from TruthFinder
TruthFinder is a background check and people search service that provides detailed personal reports to paying subscribers. They are owned by PeopleConnect and aggregate public records with other data sources. Opting out removes your information from their searchable database and paid reports.
TruthFinder is just one of hundreds of sites selling your data. Even after you opt out here, your personal records will keep appearing on other data broker sites — often within weeks. Manually removing yourself from every site takes 20–30 hours and needs to be repeated constantly. Aura automatically removes your data from 100+ brokers and monitors for reappearance 24/7 — so you never have to do this again.
Let Aura Handle the Rest →What Data Does TruthFinder Collect?
TruthFinder collects names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, criminal records, arrest records, court records, sex offender registry data, social media profiles, dating site profiles, property ownership, vehicle records, professional licenses, education history, and known associates. Their reports often include dark web monitoring results showing if your data has appeared in data breaches.

What to Expect After Opting Out
TruthFinder will process your removal request within 1-2 weeks after email verification. Your information will be removed from their search results and will no longer appear in reports generated for subscribers. You will receive an email confirmation when the removal is complete.
Additional Tips
TruthFinder is part of the PeopleConnect family along with Instant Checkmate and PeopleSmart. Submit separate opt-out requests for each service. Also search for variations of your name (maiden name, middle name) to ensure all records are removed.
Done with TruthFinder? You're not done yet. There are hundreds of other data broker sites that still have your information. Instead of repeating this process manually for every one of them, Aura handles all removals automatically and keeps monitoring so your data stays off.
