Common questions

Is it free to opt out of LexisNexis?

Yes. LexisNexis's opt-out is free. You don't need to pay anyone to file it, including us; this guide walks through it.

Will my LexisNexis listing come back?

It can. People-search sites rebuild profiles from new public records and data purchases. Re-check every few months and re-file if it reappears.

Does California's DROP cover LexisNexis?

DROP only reaches brokers registered with California. LexisNexis's registration status in our records: probably registered (unverified). Check the CPPA data broker registry for the current list. Even registered brokers may claim exemptions for public-record data.

Keep proof

Whether you file yourself or have someone do it, keep a dated screenshot of the listing before and after, and the confirmation email or number. If the listing comes back, that record is what you'll point to. That's the whole idea behind Struckoff's proof records.
