Removal procedure
Open the verified route
Choose the ClarityCheck phone opt-out page or its separate email opt-out page, depending on the identifier you want suppressed.
Continue the first-party flow
Enter the exact phone number or email address that appears in ClarityCheck search results.
Continue the first-party flow
Request the one-time passcode sent to that phone number or email inbox.
Finish and retain evidence
Enter the passcode to verify ownership; submit a separate request for every additional identifier.
What to provide—and what not to provide
Use information that can reasonably match the record: the listed name, relevant email or phone number, profile URL, or current location when the form asks for it. The purpose is authentication and record location, not creating a richer broker profile. Before uploading an identity document, read the broker’s explanation, mask unrelated numbers and images when permitted, and keep a copy of the privacy notice that governed the request.
Verification status here means Trustifo checked the published route and its described requirements; it does not mean Trustifo submitted a request using a real person’s data. Read how the verification protocol works and review data minimization before deciding how much information to send.
If ClarityCheck denies or does not complete the request
Reply through the same channel and ask for the reason, the date the request was logged, and any appeal instructions. Attach the confirmation reference, not a new bundle of personal records. Check whether the denial concerns identity verification, an exempt record, data that the company must retain, or a listing controlled by another service.
Residents of covered states can compare the response with the rights summarized in the state privacy law map. California residents can also review the Delete Act and DROP. These pages are informational and link to primary government sources; they are not a conclusion that a particular law covers a particular request.
Recheck the result
One request covers one identifier; submit separately for other phone numbers or email addresses and repeat if a source later repopulates the result. Search using the same identifiers that exposed the record, then try one reasonable variation such as an older city or prior work email. A cached search-engine result may outlive the source page, so open the result before assuming the broker still publishes it. If the source record is gone but a search snippet remains, use that search engine’s outdated-content process rather than resubmitting unrelated data to the broker.
Questions about ClarityCheck removal
Does ClarityCheck charge for an opt-out?
The first-party privacy route reviewed by Trustifo does not state a fee for submitting this request. Do not confuse advertisements or third-party removal services with ClarityCheck's own channel.
What should I save after submitting?
Keep the submission date, the URL used, any confirmation number, and verification email. Do not save more exposed personal data than necessary.
What if ClarityCheck cannot verify me?
Ask which identifiers failed to match and whether a less intrusive alternative can establish control of the record. Avoid sending unrelated identity-document fields.
Can the record return later?
It can if information is obtained again from a new source or appears under a different identifier. Follow the recurrence note and search again after material contact changes.
What if the request is denied?
Request the reason in writing and use any appeal path stated in the response. Depending on residence and coverage, a state privacy law may provide an appeal or regulator complaint route.
