What is a Removals Report?

Optery provides Removals Reports for Extended and Ultimate plan customers. These reports use before-and-after screenshots to show where your information was publicly listed by a data broker and has since been removed.

Screenshots are included only when a public profile was available to capture. Some data brokers store information in private or restricted databases that cannot be displayed publicly. Even when a screenshot is not shown, Optery has still submitted and tracked opt-out requests on your behalf. The Removals Report is designed to complement your initial Exposure Report.

Removals Reports are generated approximately every three months and are available once your paid Extended or Ultimate subscription has been active for at least three months.

Customers have two options for how Removals Reports will be processed, and you can learn more about each option at the links below:

Internal Processing (default setting for all users)
AI Processing (higher accuracy & removals effectiveness; requires opt in from Account settings page)

By default, all customers are opted into Internal Processing - if you would like AI Processing for your Removals Reports, you must opt in from your Account settings page
