DeleteMe is a privacy protection service focused on reducing the public availability of personal information on the internet. The service identifies data broker and people‑search websites that collect and sell personal data such as names, addresses, phone numbers, and family relationships. DeleteMe submits opt‑out and removal requests on behalf of users and continues to monitor these sites over time. Because personal data often reappears, the service operates on a recurring basis rather than as a one‑time cleanup.
