What is ClustrMaps?
ClustrMaps is a massive data broker site that collects and shares personal information online. In addition to sharing private details, a ClustrMaps search reveals such data as neighborhood infrastructure, property history, area issues, and more.
This information can be used by fraudsters for text scam, fake calls, stalking, harassment, and other malicious activities. It’s advisable to remove your personal information from ClustrMaps to protect your privacy. To do that, you need to fill out a removal form on their website.

How do I opt out of Clustrmaps manually?
Step 1: Open ClustrMaps.com
In order to begin your opt-out process, go to ClustrMaps.
Step 2: Search for your record
Either enter your full address in the address tab or enter your full name in the people tab, and click the “Find” button.
Step 3: Open your record
Check the appearing results to find your listing. If you searched by name, you may narrow down the results by specifying the location using the state filter and the map on the right. Once you locate your record, click on the “View Details” button.
Step 4: Copy the record URL
Look through the profile to see if this is really your record. Then copy its URL as you will later paste it into the opt-out form.
Step 5: Go to ClustrMaps’ opt-out form
To submit a removal request, navigate to the opt-out page.
Step 6: Fill in the Removal Request form
Enter your full name exactly as it is written in the record, a valid email address, the record URL you copied earlier, and your home address. Then click the “Next Step” button.
Step 7: Select the details you want to have removed
On the appearing page tick the personal details you want to have removed from your record. We recommend that you tick all of the listed boxes and leave no personal information on the website. Once done, click on “Apply.“
Your removal request has been submitted.
Note that removing your profile from data brokers does not equal immediate removal from Google. The links to your removed profiles can remain visible in Google search results for some time after they have been deleted from a people-search site. It takes up to several days for Google to update its search results and exclude links to your deleted listings. You can speed things up by using Google’s outdated content removal tool.
