AtData is one of 336 broker sites Shield Pro covers
The same records that put you on AtData are spread across our full data-broker opt-out list, and that spread is how wholesalers and spammers got your number in the first place. Opting out of one site helps for a while, then AtData relists you after its next data refresh. FendLand shows where you are listed. Shield Pro removes your AtData listing for you, and your listings at most other sites, walks you through the rest, and re-checks every 90 days.

Check my exposureQuestions
Is AtData legitimate?
Yes. AtData is a real company, not a scam. It is a data broker: it buys and compiles property, ownership, and contact records, then licenses them to marketers, lenders, and the skip-trace tools wholesalers use to find owners to call. That is a legal business in the US, which is why your records can be in its database without you ever hearing of it. AtData takes opt-out requests from anyone, free, through its own request process, and you do not have to give a reason; in some states, such as California, opting out is also a legal right. Some property and mortgage data may be kept under regulatory exemptions, so a removal can be partial.
Why is AtData showing my information?
AtData builds its file on you from public property and mortgage records, recorded deeds, and commercial marketing data it licenses in bulk, not from anything you handed it. Your name enters its database the moment you appear on a recorded document, which is why it can list you with no signup. You can request removal or suppression for free, though some property and mortgage records may be retained under regulatory exemptions.
Will removing myself from AtData stop the "we buy your house or land" texts?
It helps, but AtData is one of many data brokers feeding the same marketing and skip-trace lists, and the records return after each refresh, so you need to remove yourself across the whole set and re-verify on a schedule. Shield Pro removes your info from most of the 336 broker sites for you, walks you through the rest, and re-checks every 90 days.
