I'm a clinician. Optery changed my life.
I've been an Optery customer for about 2 years. This company is a huge part of my peace of mind and quite literally, my physical safety. I'm a clinician, and it's vital that my physical address is hidden from unstable clients. Data brokers make this virtually impossible to do on my own. I found Optery after looking at comparison articles...and have never looked back. My digital footprint used to be out of control, even though I didn't use social media - my address was everywhere. It was a horrible feeling - and for me, quite literally unsafe. Within months of being with Optery, that changed dramatically, and 18 or so months later, there's no trace of me on the web. For me, this is security, this is peace of mind, this is freedom. Optery's customer support is fantastic, and they're also a highly ethical company - they regularly make statements when data broker stuff hits the news, and they stay clear of conflict-of-interest relationships with the data brokers. For me, being an Optery client is also voting with my hard earned money - I want companies that conduct themselves like Optery to thrive. In a wild west digital landscape that laws can't keep up with well, we need Optery's clear, strong ethics and efficacious protection very badly. I'm incredibly relieved to be their client. I've looked at the mediocre and poor reviews here and you can read Optery's responses for yourself. It seems to me the folks who are leaving less than 5 stars may not have enough information on how data removal works. It's not instant, and that's not because of Optery - Optery works as quickly as possible, using tools that are a lot stronger and more sophisticated than anyone else. Data brokers are pernicious and have their own process for letting go of your information; Optery has a system that requires them to let it go as quickly as possible and it takes time for the brokers to respond. That's not on Optery and any removal service encounters data broker resistance. If you don't want data broker resistance, we need to pressure our lawmakers. With Optery, you can trust them to stay on it and get the job done - think of it as a lawyer who goes to bat for you. There is no universe in which a lawyer wins a case within a few hours (though sometimes Optery does, and that's incredible). It's just a normal reality that it takes a little time. For me, that meant there was all the more reason to get Optery sooner rather than later and to let the company go to town on the data brokers throwing all my sensitive information out there. I couldn't be more glad I did.

Been using Optery for 7 months now and I am very satisfied. Most of my info has been taken off all people's search, and phone number search sites. I have used a few other search removal sites and I find Optery to be the best. Keep up the good work Optery!
