How to make them delete it

Email · customer-service@radaris.com
They demand · Email confirmation link plus reCAPTCHA for the online flow, one record per request. No account or phone verification demanded anymore, a change from the flow criticized in 2024 reporting
Turnaround · Radaris claims 30 to 60 minutes after email confirmation; honored inconsistently in third-party testing
  1. Open radaris.com/control-privacy (the old /control/privacy URL now redirects to a paid-product pitch) and search your name, or paste your profile URL
  2. Select your record and start the removal
  3. Enter an email address, pass the reCAPTCHA, and click the confirmation link they send
  4. The online flow removes one record at a time. For additional records or name variants, email customer-service@radaris.com
  5. If ignored, escalate with a written CCPA or state-law deletion demand using our template, and document everything
The catch — why this won't stick

The online opt-out removes a single record, and removed data can reappear as new unmatched records arrive from public-source refreshes. Radaris also imposes an unusually heavy documentation burden on authorized agents, which is why several removal services flag it as obstructive.

Enforcement record
  • No government enforcement action (FTC, state AG, or CPPA) against Radaris is on public record as of mid-2026
  • Krebs on Security, 'A Close Up Look at the Consumer Data Broker Radaris' (Mar 8, 2024): reported that the listed CEO 'Gary Norden' did not exist and identified the operators and their Cyprus-registered corporate structure
  • Krebs on Security follow-up (Jun 20, 2024): the operators' attorney threatened a defamation suit while admitting the CEO persona was invented by Radaris's marketing division; nothing was retracted and no suit was filed
  • Private lawsuits: an Illinois Right of Publicity Act class action (2023) and Atlas Data Privacy Corp. v. Radaris LLC under New Jersey's Daniel's Law (2024)

Subject: Request to Delete Personal Information under the California Consumer Privacy Act

To the Privacy Compliance Team at Radaris:

I am a resident of [STATE] and I am exercising my right to deletion under [the California Consumer Privacy Act, Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.105 / your state's equivalent statute].

I request that you delete all personal information you maintain about me, including any inferences derived from that information, and that you direct all service providers and contractors to do the same, as the law requires.

Information to locate my records:

- Full name: [NAME, plus prior names or common misspellings]
- Date of birth: [DOB]
- Current address: [ADDRESS]
- Prior addresses (last 10 years): [ADDRESSES]
- Phone numbers: [NUMBERS]
- Email addresses: [EMAILS]

I am providing this information solely to verify my identity and locate my records. Retaining it for any other purpose would itself violate the statute.

Please confirm receipt of this request, and provide confirmation of deletion within the 45-day statutory window. If you claim an exemption for any category of my data, identify the specific legal basis in writing.

If I do not receive confirmation, I will file a complaint with [the California Privacy Protection Agency / my state's Attorney General].
