How long removals take, and when listings come back
What to expect after you opt out, how Frame reminds you to check, and what to do when a listing reappears.
How long it takes
Brokers set their own pace. Some take a day, others weeks. Privacy laws set deadlines: 30 days under Quebec’s Law 25, 45 days under the CCPA, one month under the GDPR.
Reminders
- After you choose I sent it, Frame reminds you to check your listing in 30 days.
- When a check is due, the broker shows Re-check due and Frame asks whether the listing is gone.
- Choose It’s gone or It’s back.
- After a removal holds, Frame reminds you to check again in 3 months, in case it comes back.
Why listings come back
Brokers buy data again from public records and other companies, and some create a new listing when your details change. A listing that returns is marked Re-listed.
When it’s back
- Open the broker under Removal.
- Choose the button that opens its opt-out page, like Open Spokeo’s opt-out page, and send the opt-out again.
- Choose I sent it again.
