Personal data removal

Take your personal data off the internet.

Data brokers publish your name, address, phone, and relatives - and re-list you after you opt out. byscento finds you, removes you, and keeps watching, with proof you can actually verify.

The problem

Your life is for sale, in bulk.

Hundreds of people-search sites buy and resell your personal records. That fuels spam, scams, doxxing, and identity theft - and removing yourself once doesn't last, because brokers re-buy the data and re-list you.

How it works

Find. Remove. Verify. Repeat.

1 - Discover

We search the data brokers for your records and confirm which are really you - rejecting same-name strangers and reflected ads.

2 - Remove

We submit each broker's opt-out and handle the email confirmations that stall most DIY removals.

3 - Verify

We re-scan to prove the record is actually gone. A site that blocks our check is reported as "couldn't verify" - never as "clean".

4 - Monitor

Brokers re-list you. We re-scan every week and remove you again automatically.

Why byscento

Proof, not promises.

Verifiable removals

Every find and removal carries evidence and a verification re-scan.

Honest reporting

When a broker blocks us, you see it. We never count "couldn't check" as "you're clean".

The long tail

Built to cover niche brokers and social footprints the big services skip.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does byscento remove my personal information?

We search the data brokers and people-search sites for records that match you, confirm which are really yours, then submit each broker's opt-out and deletion request as your authorized agent. We capture screenshot proof of each removal and re-scan to verify the record is actually gone.

Is there a free option?

Yes. You can create an account and run a free exposure scan that shows exactly where you appear across the data brokers, with proof, before you decide. Automated removals start at $2.99/mo and you can cancel anytime.

How is byscento different from DeleteMe, Incogni, or Optery?

byscento is cheaper than the rest and reports honestly: every find and removal carries evidence and a verification re-scan, and when a broker blocks our check we report it as 'couldn't verify' rather than counting it as 'clean'. We also cover niche brokers and social footprints the big services skip.

How long does removal take, and what about re-listing?

Removal timelines vary by broker because each one processes opt-outs on its own schedule. Because brokers re-buy data and re-list you after you opt out, a one-time removal rarely sticks, so byscento keeps re-scanning every week and removes you again automatically.

How do I know my data was actually removed?

Every removal carries evidence and a verification re-scan that proves the record is gone. If a site blocks our check, we report it as 'couldn't verify' and never as 'clean', so you only ever see honest results.
