How do I Opt Out of Addresssearch Manually?
1) Go to the opt-out page of Addresssearch https://www.addresssearch.com/remove-info.php. Type in your name, email, and complete address. Then click Remove Yourself to submit your request.
IMPORTANT: Whenever contacting a data broker, we highly recommend using a disposable email address, and NOT using your own primary email address. Data brokers are known to add you to their marketing lists and databases whenever you contact them, even if the purpose is to opt out! For more info on Disposable Emails click here
