What is AddressSearch.com?
AddressSearch.com is a popular data broker website.
It operates primarily as a reverse phone lookup directory but also provides more detailed information with their paid service.
Due to privacy concerns, many people prefer to remove their information from data broker sites like this.
AddressSearch.com, like other similar websites, sources its information from public records and other publicly available sources.
These types of websites aggregate information from various public records, such as phone books, property records, third-party data brokers and other publicly available sources, and make them easily accessible online.
Why you should remove your information from AddressSearch.com
Data brokers like AddressSearch.com collect and sell personal data, often without your consent. This can lead to an increase in unwanted marketing and inaccurate information about you being available online.
Having personal information about yourself online can put you at greater risk of identity theft, doxxing, stalking and other forms of online and potentially physical harassment.
Data brokers often use unclear language. They suggest that paying for detailed reports can reveal court records, lawsuits, and arrest records. This is true even if you’ve never even gotten something as meaningless as a parking ticket. These sites also sell ads to questionable advertisers. These advertisers might imply you have a legal history, even when you don’t.
One of the major concerns with having your personal information on reverse phone lookup sites like this is that they allow unmoderated user generated comments. If your phone number was registered to someone else before you, there might be some negative comments about the previous owner, or there could even be fake or negative comments about you.
Ultimately, it’s about having control over your own information. It’s your right to decide who has access to your details and for what purpose.
Removing your info from data brokers is a way to regain some of that control over your digital footprint and online privacy.

How did AddressSearch.com get my information?
Sites like AddressSearch.com gather their data from a few different sources, usually blending public records with other private data that they purchase.
- Public records: This can be anything from voter registrations, property deeds, court records, and marriage licenses.
- Business records: Similar to public records, if you run a business, some of that information is available for anyone to lookup, these sites just bring it all together.
- Credit Bureaus and Financial Institutions: While they don’t directly share credit history without consent, they can make some basic information available under some circumstances.
- Telecom Companies: They get lists of subscribers from phone companies to build their databases of phone numbers and addresses.
- Social Media and Other Online Sources: Publicly available information from social media profiles and other online platforms like LinkedIn can be scraped and aggregated.
- Third-party Data Brokers: They can buy information from data brokers who specialize in aggregating personal data.
A lot of this information is what you might not realize you’re giving away when you sign up for things online. That information, depending on how it is collected, can be bought and sold in bulk. This is kind of like a less malicious version of the Facebook-Cambridge Analytica data scandal.
