About Skrubbd

Your personal information — your name, address, phone number, email, even your relatives — is listed on hundreds of websites right now. Data brokers collect and sell it. People-search sites make it one Google search away from anyone: stalkers, scammers, telemarketers, or just nosy people.

Skrubbd exists because removing your data shouldn't require hiring a lawyer or paying $200/year. We built a free, no-BS directory of every major data broker with direct opt-out links and step-by-step instructions.

What we do

  • Data broker directory: 60+ sites with opt-out links, difficulty ratings, and walkthrough guides.
  • Credit freeze guides: All 8 bureaus — the big 3 everyone knows plus the 5 that identity thieves exploit.
  • Emergency triage:A calm, ordered action plan if you've already been hacked.
  • Free tools: Privacy Audit PDF, upcoming quiz, and more.

How we make money

We partner with paid data removal and identity protection services (like DeleteMe, Incogni, and others). If you choose to use one of those services through our affiliate links, we earn a commission. Every affiliate link is clearly labeled. Our guides and tools are always free, and we never push paid services over DIY removal.

What we are not

Skrubbd is not a credit repair organization, law firm, or government agency. We provide informational resources and link to official third-party opt-out pages. Always verify information with official sources.
