How we grade them
| 2.2GPAEasyOptOutsFair | 2.4GPAPrivacy BeeFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | A$19.99 a year for its only plan, the cheapest in this category by a long way, with a 150-day money-back guarantee behind it. Nonprofits and government bodies get 25% off. | CEssentials is about $8 a month billed annually, a figure the pricing page itself calls approximate, right in the middle of this category. Pro, where the wider broker list and custom takedowns start, is about $16. The monthly-billing price isn't shown. |
| Free plan and trial | FNo free plan and no trial. The 150-day money-back guarantee is unusually long, but it's still a refund, not a trial. | DNo free plan and no trial. A free account gets one scan and some do-it-yourself guides, which shows you the problem but removes nothing and doesn't keep watching. The 30-day money-back guarantee isn't a trial. |
| Features | CIt does the basic job fully automatically, at 200+ sites by its count, and says it rescans every 4 months. The gaps: no custom requests, and PeopleConnect sites such as Intelius and TruthFinder are yours to opt out of yourself. | BPrivacy Bee says Essentials covers 543 people-search sites with scans every 30 days, and Pro 1,256 brokers plus unlimited custom takedowns, with human analysts and map blurring. Unlimited aliases and addresses on every tier. The whole job is here, on Pro. |
| Ease of use | BNo App Store rating on record, but there's almost nothing to hand over or set: legal name, birth date, current address and email, no ID photo, and it emails a summary after each round. | BNo App Store rating on record, but there's little to set up. It runs on its own, a dashboard shows a risk score and where each removal stands, and a monthly email sums up what went and what failed. |
| Platforms and integrations | CWeb only, with no app, integrations or API on record. It works for US residents only, and payment goes through PayPal. | BThe web plus iPhone and Android apps, and its help desk says it serves almost every country outside US sanctions, the widest here. There's no computer app and no integrations on record, so it stops at B. |
| Best for | the cheapest broker opt-outs in the US | removals outside North America, and custom takedowns |

Worth knowing
EasyOptOuts
- Works only for US residents; it is set up to handle US phone numbers and addresses only.
- There are no custom removal requests, and PeopleConnect sites such as Intelius and TruthFinder must be opted out of yourself.
- There is no family plan, so each person needs their own subscription; business plans start at 10 people.
- Payment goes through PayPal only, by card or bank account, and scans run every 4 months rather than monthly.
Privacy Bee
- The pricing page shows only approximate monthly figures for yearly billing; monthly billing exists, but its price is not shown.
- A free account gets one scan and do-it-yourself guides only, with no automatic removals or ongoing monitoring.
- Essentials covers people-search sites only; custom takedowns and wider broker coverage start on Pro.
- The 30-day money-back guarantee covers Essentials and Pro, not Signature, and each family member needs a paid license of their own.
Key features
EasyOptOuts
- Fully automated opt-outs
- Software searches each covered site and submits the opt-out on the spot when it finds you, so no staff or overseas contractors handle your details. EasyOptOuts says its team is entirely US-based.
- 200+ high-visibility sites
- Covers the people-search sites most likely to show up in searches, such as Spokeo, Whitepages and MyLife, plus a few large brokers like Acxiom and LexisNexis. It skips sites where it cannot find you.
- Rescans every 4 months
- The first round of searches and requests takes up to two weeks; after that the whole process repeats every 4 months to catch records that come back.
- Email summaries
- After each round you get an email listing where you were found and what was requested, and it keeps following up with slower sites after the summary.
- Minimal sign-up data
- It asks only for your legal name, date of birth, current address and email, with other names, past addresses and phone numbers optional. No ID photo or power of attorney is needed.
- Deletes your data on cancel
- Cancelling from your account stops billing and immediately deletes everything EasyOptOuts holds about you, according to its FAQ.
Privacy Bee
- People-search removal
- Every paid tier files removal requests with people-search sites and their affiliates, 543 of them by Privacy Bee's count, and rescans every 30 days to catch re-listings.
- Wider broker coverage
- Pro and Signature add marketing, background-check, data enrichment, recruiting and other broker types, 1,256 in all by the company's count.
- Custom site takedowns
- On Pro and Signature you can ask for removal from blogs, forums, social media and other sites outside the broker list. Government records and reviews are excluded.
- Human analysts
- Pro pairs automation with a Global Response Team of analysts outside the US; Signature uses US-based staff in Atlanta with daily follow-ups and escalation paths.
- Unlimited names and contact details
- Protect unlimited aliases, home addresses, phone numbers and email addresses, and use a private email proxy when dealing with brokers.
- Risk score and reports
- A dashboard shows a Privacy Risk Score and the status of each removal, and monthly emails summarize what was removed or failed.
