How to remove yourself from SpyFly
SpyFly is a subscription background-check service whose reports include public and court records. Its opt-out runs through the help-center opt-out page; suppressing your record stops those reports being generated about you.
Background-report data: contact info, address history, public and court records.
Why removing yourself from SpyFly matters
On SpyFly, anyone can look you up — often for just a few dollars — and pull background-report data: contact info, address history, public and court records. 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 SpyFly listing cuts off one of the easiest public sources of that data about you.
Opting out of SpyFly is fairly straightforward, with one extra verification step — it works via web form, and removals usually process in ~48 hours. It is free: under U.S. privacy laws SpyFly has to honor opt-out requests, so never pay a "removal" fee. Have your details ready for the verification step, then re-check in a few weeks to make sure the listing stayed down.
How to opt out of SpyFly, step by step
Go to spyfly.com/help-center/opt-out.
Provide the requested details to locate your record (used only to find it).
Submit the opt-out request with your email.
Confirm via the verification email, and keep a copy of the request.
Link verified June 2026 — brokers change their forms, so confirm it’s the official spyfly.com opt-out before entering anything.
Watch out: Background-check services can rebuild reports from public records — verify your report is gone and re-submit if it reappears.
