DTM Deutsche Tele Medien GmbH

Das Telefonbuch is a comprehensive online telephone and address directory for Germany, operated by DTM Deutsche Tele Medien GmbH and its regional publishing partners. It provides publicly accessible contact information for individuals and businesses, including names, addresses, and phone numbers. Users can perform standard searches for people or companies, as well as reverse lookups using a phone number to find the associated details. The data is primarily sourced from information that users have agreed to publish in public directories via their telecommunications providers. The exposure of this personal information, such as home addresses and phone numbers, can create significant privacy risks, potentially facilitating unwanted contact, stalking, or doxxing. To mitigate these risks, individuals should be cautious about the information they consent to share with their telecom providers and can request to have their data removed from the directory.
