How to remove yourself from GovArrestRecords
GovArrestRecords is an arrest- and criminal-records lookup site operated within the InfoTracer family. Because InfoTracer powers its data, removal requests are processed through InfoTracer's central opt-out tool rather than a separate form on GovArrestRecords. Completing the InfoTracer opt-out suppresses your listing here.
Arrest records, criminal histories, court and warrant data, addresses, phone numbers.
Why removing yourself from GovArrestRecords matters
On GovArrestRecords, anyone can look you up — often for just a few dollars — and pull arrest records, criminal histories, court and warrant data, addresses, phone numbers. That is more than enough to target you with spam and phishing, fuel robocalls, or in the worst cases enable stalking, doxxing or identity theft. Removing your GovArrestRecords listing cuts off one of the easiest public sources of that data about you.
Opting out of GovArrestRecords is quick and straightforward — it works via online form (handled by InfoTracer) + email verification, and removals usually process in 5-10 min. It is free: under U.S. privacy laws GovArrestRecords has to honor opt-out requests, so never pay a "removal" fee. Most people finish it in just a few minutes.
