How Cyber Background Checks Collects, Sells, and Shares Your Personal Data
What is Cyber Background Checks?
CyberBackgroundChecks is a people search data broker that compiles personal information from public records and third-party sources, then publishes searchable profiles by name, phone, email, or address. Typical records include current and previous addresses, phone numbers, known aliases, possible relatives and associates, and links to additional background details such as criminal records and business assets. These profiles can expose sensitive location and relationship data that increase the risk of stalking, doxxing, and identity abuse.

How to Opt Out and Remove Your Data from Cyber Background Checks
An online removal workflow is available, but it is multi-step and time-limited. You start at the CyberBackgroundChecks removal page, submit your name and email, verify via a link that expires, then complete a suppression form with additional details before the profile is hidden. Reappearance is common if new public records feed the broker again, so periodic checks are recommended.
For detailed instructions, view our Opt-Out Guide.

Cyber Background Checks Privacy Risks and How to Remove Your Personal Data
Public Records Aggregation and People Search Profiles
CyberBackgroundChecks compiles data from public sources and data reporting agencies to build searchable profiles that list address histories, phone numbers, aliases, and links to related records like criminal or business filings. These profiles often surface relationship networks such as relatives and associates along with location maps of current residences.
Automatic Collection via Feeds, Partners, and Embedded Lookups
The service pulls in bulk data feeds from public records and relies on partner lookups for additional background information. Users can pivot from core profiles to more in-depth checks such as criminal records and social profiles through linked providers, which broadens exposure beyond the initial listing.
Why Removal Is Difficult and How mePrism Helps
Even after a successful suppression request, your profile can return as new records appear in public databases or third-party feeds. The broker’s process requires email verification and detailed form submissions, and there is no guarantee of permanent deletion. Continuous monitoring and coordinated removals across many people search sites reduce the chance of repopulation. Services like mePrism centralize repeat checks and new takedown requests so your information stays suppressed over time.
