DATA BROKER REMOVAL GUIDE
How to Remove Yourself from MyLife.com — Complete UK Guide
Updated July 2026 · 5 min read · By Silent Erase | ICO Registered C1971457
MyLife.com is a US-based people search site that also lists data on UK residents, often pulled from public records, social media and other data brokers. It compiles profiles including your name, age, address history, relatives and even a "reputation score" — all visible to anyone who searches your name.
Why this matters:
MyLife profiles often rank highly in Google search results for your name, meaning employers, landlords and even scammers may see this before anything else about you.
What Information Does MyLife.com List?
MyLife aggregates data from public records, social networks and other broker sites into a single profile. This can include your full name, age, current and past addresses, phone numbers, relatives' names, and social media links — often alongside a paid "background check" upsell.
How to Remove Your Data from MyLife.com
1
Find your listing
Search your name on MyLife.com and note the exact profile URL — you'll need it for your removal request.
2
Use their opt-out process
MyLife provides an opt-out request form accessible from their privacy/contact page. Submit your profile URL through this form.
3
Send a formal GDPR erasure request
As a UK resident your data is still protected by UK GDPR even though MyLife is a US company, if they offer services accessible to UK users. Use the template below via their privacy contact page.
4
Follow up after 30 days
If there's no response within a calendar month, you can escalate to the ICO. Note that enforcement against non-UK companies can be slower, so persistence matters.

Dear Data Protection Officer,
I am writing to formally request the erasure of my personal data under Article 17 of the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR).
My personal information is currently listed at the following URL:
[PASTE THE URL OF YOUR LISTING HERE]
I request the immediate removal of all personal data relating to me from your website and confirmation in writing that this has been completed.
As a UK resident, my data is protected under UK GDPR. Please confirm compliance within one calendar month.
Yours faithfully,
[YOUR FULL NAME]
[YOUR ADDRESS]
[YOUR EMAIL]
Important:
Keep a copy of your submission and the date sent. If there's no response after 30 days, you can file a complaint with the ICO at ico.org.uk.
What If MyLife Refuses or Doesn't Respond?
Some overseas data brokers are slower to respond to UK GDPR requests than UK-based ones. If you get no response, the ICO can still investigate on your behalf, and continued non-compliance can be reported as part of a wider pattern of enforcement action.
