What each dimension means
- Data published: how much and how sensitive the personal data they put out.
- Re-listing frequency: how quickly you reappear after opting out.
- Complaint record: the volume and pattern of complaints across BBB, Trustpilot, and Sitejabber. No listing, or a listing with no reviews, counts against the broker.

We don't have family.me's own pricing or a breakdown of exactly what personal information categories it collects - the registry and Spokeo's privacy policy describe the company's practices at the brand-family level rather than for family.me specifically.
