Your legal footing
The right you are exercising
Under the CCPA and CPRA (California Civil Code section 1798.105), a resident can require a business to delete the personal information it collected. Data Axle processes deletion requests through the route below, and in practice most people-search sites extend the same process nationwide.
What this can do
Take your public Data Axle listing down and, for a search tool, drop the result out of a name search. Filed correctly, the site is obliged to act on it.
What it cannot do
It does not erase news reporting, court filings or other lawful public records. Honesty about scope is the point: we never claim to delete something we cannot.
Why it comes back
Data Axle re-ingests public records on a schedule, so a removed profile can return. The fix is to monitor and re-file, not to opt out once and hope.
