What LexisNexis shows about you

  • Identity and address history
  • Phone numbers
  • Property, court, and licensing records
  • Insurance and claims data (regulated reports)

After you opt out

  • Search your name on the site again in a private browser window to confirm the listing is gone.
  • Opt out of related sites separately; one request rarely covers every brand.
  • If Google still shows the old page, use Google’s Refresh Outdated Content tool once the listing is removed.
  • Re-check every few months, because profiles can reappear when databases refresh.
