Search again after 3 weeks
UpLead's opt-out page doesn't state a response time. In its California filing it reported a 15-day median for deletion requests in 2024, so wait about 3 weeks before you check. It only holds business contact data, which it re-collects from public sources, so check again after a few months too.
Watch out for
- UpLead sells business contact data, so removal from UpLead doesn't remove you from other sales databases.
- UpLead's alternate page, uplead.com/delete-my-information, also exists; the California filing points to the opt-out page.
