Tracers is covered by Enformion's opt-out
This is an Enformion, LLC property, and Enformion's privacy portal says outright that it handles requests for its affiliated sites by name. We checked the routing - tracers.com/opt-out/ redirects to enformion.com/opt-out/. One request at Enformion covers this domain, so there's nothing separate to file here.
Broker profile
Tracers
- Enformion brand
Enformion's investigative-search brand, sold to private investigators, skip tracers and law firms rather than to the public. Enformion describes it as search technology over its own identity graph, and files Tracers.com as a registered DBA. It publishes no listing you can look yourself up on - but the records behind it are the ones this directory's people-search brands run on, and its opt-out link goes straight to Enformion's.

- Complaint record: volume and pattern of complaints across BBB, Trustpilot, and Sitejabber; no findable review presence counts against the broker.

Background
Background
Tracers is Enformion wearing an investigator's badge, and it doesn't hide it - the logo on its own homepage reads "Tracers, an Enformion solution". Enformion describes it as search technology plus a cloud platform "for the investigative market, including professional investigators and legal experts". It's one of two DBAs on Enformion, LLC's California data-broker filing, alongside EnformionGO, and tracers.com is named on that filing as one of three domains.
For a reader worried about exposure, the useful thing about Tracers isn't the product - it's the confirmation of where the data sits. Enformion's California filing declares that its GLBA-covered activities cover "data services provided by Tracers and Enformion", naming both, and lists the covered identifiers as name, postal address, telephone number, email address, date of birth and social security number.
Tracers' own homepage makes the same point from the other side. It pitches "law enforcement agencies, skip tracing professionals and businesses of all sizes" on data that connects to over 98% of people in the U.S. - the same coverage claim Enformion makes for the graph underneath.
So Tracers isn't a separate database with a separate copy of you. It's a different door into the same graph, which is exactly why the removal is shared.
Network
Sister brands
Enformion, LLC runs Enformion, Tracers and EnformionGO over one identity graph, and routes every privacy request into one portal. That makes this family unusual in this directory - almost everywhere else, each brand needs its own removal.
One request covers the family. Submit at Enformion's portal and you've covered this domain too. Our Enformion removal guide has the walkthrough, including the emailed link that expires after 24 hours.
It still won't clear the consumer sites Enformion supplies. FastPeopleSearch, SearchPeopleFree, SmartBackgroundChecks and Whitepages are separate operators with their own suppression lists. Each needs its own removal.
FAQ
Q & A
Who owns Tracers?
Enformion, LLC of Sacramento, California. Tracers.com is filed as a DBA on Enformion, LLC's California data-broker registration and named as one of three domains on it. Its privacy notice links to Enformion's opt-out portal, and its own opt-out URL redirects there.
How do I remove my information from Tracers?
Through Enformion, and only through Enformion. This domain runs no opt-out of its own - tracers.com/opt-out/ redirects to enformion.com/opt-out/, and Enformion's privacy portal names its affiliated sites as covered. Follow our Enformion removal guide. Choose Right to Opt-out first, because Enformion's own California filing reports honouring 34,650 of 40,996 of those in full during 2024, against zero of 80,683 deletion requests granted in full.
Can I look myself up on Tracers?
No. Enformion's brands sell to businesses - investigators, collectors, financial-services firms and government agencies - and don't publish a page about you that a member of the public can find. That's precisely why this removal gets missed. There's no listing to stumble across, so most people never learn the record exists.
Is Tracers a consumer reporting agency?
No. Enformion disclaims consumer-reporting-agency status in its own footer, and its California filing answers no to FCRA regulation, so the data can't lawfully decide credit, insurance, housing or employment. The same filing does declare that about 70% of its data activities fall under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, covering identifiers including social security numbers.
