How to Remove Yourself From ClustrMaps (2026 Opt-Out Guide)
ClustrMaps organizes public information around addresses. Here is how its opt-out form works and what it does not cover.
By Siddharth ShankarUpdated October 12, 2026Find the ClustrMaps page that shows your information, copy its web address, open the Opt Out link in the site footer, and submit that address in the form. ClustrMaps says data leaves its site once the source agency removes it, and it does not state a processing time, so recheck the page yourself.
Before you start opt-outs, see which known data breaches already include your email.

ClustrMaps is built around locations. Its pages are organized by address, and a person can appear on the address page of a home they own or have lived at. ClustrMaps says its data is removed once the source agency removes it, and its form takes the address of the page that lists you. Neither step erases the public records the page is built from.
Where ClustrMaps gets its information
ClustrMaps says it compiles public records from sources such as the U.S. Census Bureau, city 311 departments, alcohol beverage control departments, Secretary of State offices and county assessors. Each address page lists its data sources at the bottom, so you can see which kind of record produced the entry.
That matters for cleanup. If a county assessor record is the source, the record can stay in the county system even after the ClustrMaps entry is gone. A new copy can appear later if the source data is collected again.
How to remove yourself from ClustrMaps
1Find the page that shows your information
Search ClustrMaps for your name or your address and open the address page that lists you. Use how to find yourself on people-search sites for search tips that work across sites.
2Copy the page address
Copy the full web address of that page from your browser. ClustrMaps address pages use a short code after the site name, for example a path beginning clustrmaps.com/a/. The opt-out form identifies the record by this address.
3Open the Opt Out form
Use the Opt Out link in the footer of ClustrMaps to open its Opt Out Form.
4Paste the address and submit
The only field the form page describes is the address of the page where your information appears. Paste it and submit. The page describes no ID check and no email confirmation step.
5Repeat for each page
If your information appears on more than one address page, for example an old address, submit each page address separately.
A second route: the original source
ClustrMaps also suggests finding the source listed at the bottom of the address page and asking that agency to remove your information from its dataset, after which the data will be removed from the site. This is slower and often not possible, because many public agencies must keep records such as property assessments open by law. Treat it as an extra step for sources that do allow corrections, not as a replacement for the form.
Removal is one half of the job. Check whether your email has leaked as well.

If your name is not in the public datasets
ClustrMaps says that if your name does not come from the public datasets it lists but still appears, you should contact the site. The page gives no contact method beyond the removal form, so use the form and describe the problem.
How to check that it worked
Reload the page address you submitted and search again for your name and address. If the page still loads after a reasonable wait, submit it again and keep a screenshot. A page can also remain in search engine results for a while after it is removed. See why removed information can still appear in search results and how to verify a removal.
Why a listing can come back
Public datasets are collected again over time, so an address page can be rebuilt from fresh source data. If that happens, repeat the form with the new page address. For a longer checklist, see what to do when removed information keeps reappearing.

Frequently asked questions
Does ClustrMaps ask for ID or an email address?
The opt-out page describes only one field, the address of the page where your information appears. It does not describe an ID check or an email verification step.
How long does the removal take?
ClustrMaps does not state a processing time on its opt-out page. Recheck the page address after a few days and resubmit if it still loads.
Does this remove the records ClustrMaps used?
No. Removal affects the ClustrMaps page only. The original county, state or agency records are separate.
Can I remove several addresses at once?
The form is built around one page address at a time, so submit each page that shows your information.
