How to remove your info from North Carolina Resident Database
Redact finds listings · manual opt-out
The opt-out itself is one of the lightest in the industry. It needs no ID or notarization, just your profile URL pasted into two short forms with a spam question each, and promises contact within 48 hours. The hard part is staying removed. The site re-ingests North Carolina voter rolls on its own schedule, and refreshed data routinely brings listings back.
The full picture: See the North Carolina Resident Database profile for what the site publishes, its anonymous operator, and the two other state sites built on the same template.
The results list every matching record with its address, voter status, and party. Find the one that's actually you and click its View Profile button.
View Profile opens the record on this state's site.
03
Copy your profile URL
Your profile page's address is what identifies the record. Copy the full URL from the browser's address bar (Ctrl+C). The opt-out form asks for it.
The address-bar URL is what identifies your record on the form.
04
Paste the URL into the opt-out form
Go to northcarolinaresidentdatabase.com/opt-out (linked in the site footer). The page is headed Opt Out Step 1: paste the profile URL (Ctrl+V), answer the spam question just below it (the other walked state sites asked simple arithmetic or which of two letters comes first in the alphabet) and press Submit.
Paste the URL, answer the spam question, Submit.
05
Fill out the final form and submit
The Opt Out Step 2 page shows the record you're removing and takes your full name, email address, and a reason for opting out, plus another spam question and a checkbox certifying you're the person in the listing. Submit. The site promises to contact you within 48 hours about the removal request.
The final form: name, email, reason, one more spam question, certify, Submit.
Confirm
Confirm it worked
Recheck the site after 48 hours. If the listing is still up after a week, resubmit the form. There's no support email, phone, or address to escalate to on this site. For the underlying record, go to the North Carolina election authorities; ask about confidential-voter or address-confidentiality programs if you qualify (survivors of domestic violence, protected professions).

Troubleshooting
Form errors or CAPTCHA loops: try a different browser without extensions. The site sits behind Cloudflare and blocks anything that looks automated.
Listing reappears after a refresh: this is expected behavior on a voter-roll mirror, not a failed opt-out. Refile the form, and consider your state's confidential-voter options for a durable fix.
No response at all: the FTC's report portal takes complaints about the site; an anonymous data broker that doesn't answer a removal request is the kind of thing regulators ask to hear about.
This site re-ingests state voter rolls wholesale, so treat removal as recurring maintenance rather than a one-time fix: recheck every couple of months, especially after elections when the rolls get refreshed. Redact's scan checks this site for your listing; removal here is a manual step.
Take yourself off data broker sites
Redact scans data broker sites from your device. The free scan shows which of your details are exposed but hides which broker lists you; Premium and Ultimate show where each listing is. Redact checks North Carolina Resident Database for your listing. Removal here is a manual step. Premium and Ultimate submit removals for most other brokers Redact covers.
Confirmed by a real walkthrough of both forms - View Profile opens the record here, and the flow ends with a promise to make contact within 48 hours. Five step screenshots wired in.
