How to get removed

  1. Open hunter.io/claim and enter your work email. Personal webmail cannot be claimed — only an address at a company domain.
  2. Open the email they send and click 'Claim this email address'.
  3. You will then see exactly what Hunter holds and which web pages it came from.
  4. Press 'Delete my information'.
  5. Responsible for a whole company domain? Email privacy@hunter.io instead — they process those in about a day once your authority is verified.

Indexes work email addresses found on public web pages. If your work address has ever appeared on a company site, a press release or a conference page, you are probably in it.

This one does not re-acquire, so a completed removal holds. Most do not: the holders that buy public records re-buy them about every four months, which is why the rest of this register is re-checked rather than ticked off.

Opt-out processes change. If a step no longer matches what you see, tell us and we’ll update it.
