MyLife Opt Out: Remove Your Reputation Score & Profile (2026)

7 min read

MyLife assigns everyone a "Reputation Score" -- a 1 to 5 star rating that shows up right in Google results when someone searches your name. The score is generated from public records and is wrong often enough that MyLife has faced FTC action over it. Most people reading this guide want one thing: that score gone from Google.

What MyLife Shows About You

  • Full name, age, and date of birth
  • Current and past addresses
  • Phone numbers
  • Reputation Score (1–5 stars)
  • Background report summary
  • Relatives and associates
  • Criminal records
  • Court records
  • Business affiliations

How to Opt Out of MyLife

Method A — Phone (Fastest)

  1. Call MyLife customer support at 1-888-704-1900.
  2. Tell the representative you want to opt out and remove your profile.
  3. Provide your full name, date of birth, and address for identification.
  4. Request a confirmation email of your removal.
  5. Keep the confirmation for your records.

Method B — Email

  1. Send an email to privacy@mylife.com.
  2. Subject line: "Opt-Out Request — [Your Full Name]"
  3. Include your full name, current address, date of birth, and a link to your MyLife profile if you can find it.
  4. Request written confirmation of removal.
  5. Follow up if you haven't received confirmation within 7 business days.

The Reputation Score Problem

Even after your MyLife profile is deleted, Google's cached version can hang around for weeks. Once the profile is gone, go to Google's URL removal tool and submit the specific MyLife URL -- it speeds up the process considerably. For more on MyLife's history, read Is MyLife Safe?

MyLife's Business Model

MyLife's legal record is not good. The FTC fined them in 2022 for deceptive practices -- publishing inaccurate information and charging people money to "improve" their own reputation score. The site kept running. The scores are still there.
