Manual Opt Out of backgroundchecks.org (2024)

As we mentioned above, backgroundchecks.org is strictly a feeder search site for BeenVerified—meaning they have no active database for their own site. Because of this, there technically isn't any information on their website for you to remove.

Note: A great way to identify feeder sites is by looking for a "Sponsored Search" disclaimer close to their search bar. Not every feeder site will have one, but it's still something good to look out for.

Instead, the most effective way to prevent backgroundcheck.org users from accessing your personal data is to remove your information from BeenVerified. This can be a lengthy process, but luckily we have an opt-out guide for BeenVerified already written on our site, so it shouldn't be too painful.
