How to Cancel US Search People Search (2026 Guide)

Updated February 2026 • Hard — phone or email required • ~$8/mo

Replace your card: Ask your bank for a new card number — stops all future charges

Remove Your Data from US Search

Canceling your subscription does NOT remove your personal data. To opt out:

Look for an opt-out page on ussearch.com (may require searching "US Search opt out")
Submit a data removal request citing your state's privacy law
Also opt out of related people search sites: Spokeo, PeopleFinders, Intelius, Whitepages
