Incogni is owned by a VPN company in Lithuania.
That's not an attack — Surfshark is a fine company. But "who owns the company that has all your PII" matters. Harbor Scan is built and run from Massachusetts by one person you can email. AES-256-GCM at rest. Free first scan.
Everything DeleteMe does. For half the data exposure on you.
Scanning, opt-out filing, removal verification, and an encryption posture the others don't talk about.
Scans 16 brokers
Spokeo, Whitepages, BeenVerified, TruePeopleSearch, Radaris, MyLife, and ten more. Your name, address, phone, email — every match in one report.
Automated opt-out filing
For each listing, Harbor files the broker's required removal request. CCPA, state-by-state privacy law, and broker-specific forms — handled.
Removal verification
Monthly re-scans confirm each listing actually disappeared. If a broker re-lists you, Harbor files again. Verified removal, not promises.
AES-256-GCM at rest
Most opt-out services log your full name and address in plaintext. Harbor encrypts every profile with AES-256-GCM. Keys live outside the database.
Always-on monitoring
Brokers re-scrape and re-list. Harbor watches every broker every month, files a fresh opt-out whenever you reappear, and keeps a public-facing audit trail.
US-built and operated
Harbor is built and run from Massachusetts. Your data never leaves US infrastructure. No offshore call centers, no foreign parent company, no surprise privacy regime.
Handles CF-walled brokers
Some brokers hide behind Cloudflare challenges no scanner can pass. Harbor falls back to a blind email opt-out so those listings get hit anyway.
Free first scan
See what's out there before you pay anything. Start a free scan with just your name and a Massachusetts zip. Upgrade only if you want removals filed.
One click out
No phone calls. No retention specialists. Cancel from your dashboard, and Harbor deletes your encrypted profile within seven days.
Where your PII lives matters.
Incogni's parent is Lithuanian, which is a fine privacy jurisdiction. But you should know that, and you should know that the data moves under EU law. Incogni doesn't disclose its encryption posture publicly.
Harbor is built in Pembroke, Massachusetts. Your PII never leaves US infrastructure. Encryption is AES-256-GCM at rest, keys in a vault outside the database, decrypted only at opt-out filing time.
- AES-256-GCM encryption at rest
