Take Your Personal Details Back Off the Internet
Step-by-step privacy guides for opting out of data brokers, closing old accounts and limiting how much of your life is searchable.
Search your own name and you may find your age, past addresses, relatives and phone history listed by companies you have never dealt with. Add a trail of forgotten accounts and oversharing apps, and your personal data is spread much wider than you would choose. FixYour.info shows you how to remove it, hide it, or at least shrink it, one practical step at a time.
Three places your data leaks
People-search sites
Data brokers compile public and purchased records into profiles anyone can look up.
Old accounts
Forgotten shops, forums and apps still hold your details and can be breached.
Default settings
Social profiles, phones and browsers often share more than you realize until you change them.
Delete, hide or minimize
Not everything can be erased. Our guides sort each task into deleting what you can, hiding what you cannot delete, and sharing less from now on. Progress beats perfection.
