MyLife Opt-Out: Remove Your Profile

Last updated: July 6, 2026 · Verified against the current process

Quick answer Find your MyLife profile by searching your name, copy its URL, then submit a removal request through MyLife's privacy or opt-out channel (linked from the site footer). Use an email alias for any confirmation. MyLife is slower than most brokers, so allow several weeks and follow up. If it stalls, escalate with a CCPA or GDPR deletion request.

MyLife publishes profile pages built from public records and other aggregated data, and pairs each one with a so-called "Reputation Score" and background-style teasers. The framing pressures people to pay to "manage" or "improve" their score — but you do not need to buy anything to remove your data. This guide covers the free removal path and the legal leverage that gets stubborn profiles taken down.

What MyLife publishes

A MyLife profile can list your name, age, current and past addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, relatives, and a headline "Reputation Score." The score is not a verified rating — it is generated from aggregated public data and used to make the page feel urgent. Like other people-search sites, MyLife re-packages records it did not create, so removing the MyLife profile does not touch the underlying public records, and the profile can be rebuilt later.

Find your profile

Search your name on MyLife, adding your city or state if the name is common, open the profile that matches you, and copy its URL. Note every profile that is yours — an old address or a name variant can produce more than one, and each is handled separately.

Ignore the upsells MyLife may prompt you to pay to view or "fix" your reputation. Removing your own profile is free. Do not buy a subscription or pay a third party who claims they can take your MyLife page down.

The removal request

  1. Open MyLife's privacy or opt-out channel

    Start from the Privacy, Do Not Sell My Info, or Opt Out link in the MyLife footer. That is the reliable route to the current removal process; MyLife sometimes combines an online form with a follow-up by email or phone.

  2. Submit your profile URL and details

    Provide the profile URL you copied and the identifying details the form requests so MyLife can locate the exact page to remove. Keep your submission to what is necessary.

  3. Complete any verification

    MyLife may email or call to verify the request. Provide an email alias for the confirmation and respond to any verification step, since the request is not processed until it is confirmed.

  4. Record what you sent

    Save a copy of the request and the date. MyLife can be slow, and a dated record is what you will rely on when you follow up or escalate.

  5. Repeat for other profiles

    Submit each additional profile URL separately.

Removal can take longer here than at other brokers — allow several weeks and follow up if you hear nothing.

Use an alias for verification

Do not give MyLife your primary inbox. Use a disposable alias that forwards to you for any confirmation, then disable it once the profile is gone. Our email aliases guide shows how. This keeps your main address out of MyLife's data and away from the marketing that surrounds these profiles.

Re-check because profiles return

A removed profile can be rebuilt from fresh public records months later, sometimes under a new URL. Set a reminder to search MyLife for your name every three to six months and re-submit for anything that has returned. Doing this alongside your other broker opt-outs keeps the whole set clear rather than letting one site quietly repopulate.

CCPA / GDPR leverage

MyLife responds better to a rights-based demand than a courtesy request. If your profile is still live after a reasonable time, or reappears and a repeat request is ignored, send a formal deletion request:

Sample escalation wording "I am a California resident exercising my right to deletion and to opt out of the sale of my personal information under the CCPA/CPRA. Please delete the profile and all personal information associated with [name / profile URL], including any derived 'reputation' score, and confirm completion within 45 days." EU or UK residents should cite "my right to erasure under Article 17 of the GDPR" and require confirmation within one month.

A dated, rights-based request sets a legal deadline and gives you grounds to complain to a regulator if it is ignored. Keep the request and any reply.

Frequently asked questions

What is the MyLife Reputation Score?

It is a number MyLife assigns to a profile, presented as if it rates your reputation. It is generated from aggregated public data rather than any verified assessment, and it disappears when the underlying profile is removed.

Can I opt out of MyLife by email?

MyLife accepts removal requests through its privacy or opt-out channel, which may combine an online form with a follow-up by email or phone. Send your request in writing, keep a copy, and use an email alias for any confirmation.

How long does MyLife removal take?

MyLife can be slower than other brokers. Allow up to several weeks and follow up if there is no response. If the profile is still live after a reasonable time, escalate with a formal CCPA or GDPR deletion request.

Does MyLife charge to remove my profile?

No. Removing your own profile is free. You do not need to buy a MyLife subscription or reputation product to opt out, and you should not pay anyone claiming to be MyLife to take your data down.

What if my MyLife profile comes back?

Profiles can be rebuilt from public records after removal. Re-check every few months and re-submit. If a repeat request is ignored, use a formal deletion request citing the CCPA or GDPR to create a legal deadline.
