Rechecks: when to run one and what "changed" means

A recheck runs your last report again and compares the two. It leads with what changed, so you only fix what needs fixing. It costs 1 credit.

When to run one

After you’ve worked through your fixes, once the sites have had time to act, to see which listings are gone.
Every few months after that. People-search sites list people again from new data.
After a change in your life, such as a move or a new phone number, or if you think someone is looking for you.

We email you when a recheck is due.

Your recheck has a Changes since the last report section that marks each result:

New: found this time and not last time.
Back again: gone last time, back now. This is common. See When an opt-out doesn’t stick.
Removed: found last time and not this time. Usually a sign an opt-out worked.

Everything else in the report was found both times.

Your exposure level may move too. A lower level means the routes to your sensitive details got longer or broke.

Your contact details and past names & usernames are used again, so add anything new before you start the recheck.

Fixes you marked done stay marked on your earlier report. The recheck starts a fresh list of fixes, so mark them again as you go.
