Coverage overlap
95 of the 191 core sites on DeleteMe's public list are also on Ceaselist's email list; 573 brokers Ceaselist emails are not on that list. Broker counts are measured differently by each service (some count parent companies, some count individual websites), so a bigger number isn't automatically better coverage.
Choose DeleteMe if
- You live in the US and want a long-established, US-focused service.
- You want human specialists to work through people-search sites and web forms for you.
Choose Ceaselist if
- You live in the UK or EEA: Ceaselist cites UK GDPR or GDPR in every request and escalates to the ICO.
- You want every letter and broker reply visible in your account.
- Price: £29 a year including VAT.
How Ceaselist works
- You tell us who you are and choose which details each type of broker may see.
- You sign an authority so brokers know we act for you; they can check it through a private link.
- We email erasure and objection requests under UK GDPR or GDPR to 668 brokers that accept requests by email, in UK office hours, over about two weeks.
- We read every reply: push back on "use our form" and ID demands, remind brokers who miss the one-month deadline, and give you an ICO complaint pack if they still ignore you.
- We send requests again every 90 to 180 days, because brokers re-collect data.
