Coverage summary
Illustrative figures: 23 surfaces attempted: 18 read, 5 inaccessible. The report says so for every source that would not open.
01Confirmed youJane Doe, speaker profile
Confirmed you
Example finding
Jane Doe, speaker profile
conference-example.org/speakers/jane-doe
Identity confidence: Confirmed you.
Cleanup priority: Low. This fictional example shows professional information, with no sensitive contact details.
Confidence says whether it is you; priority says what to do first. They are separate scales.
Next action
If you want this profile removed, open the conference website’s contact page and ask its organizer to remove the speaker profile. Include the profile URL and save their reply.
Removal depends on the site owner agreeing to it.
Product lead at the company you actually work for, with the city you actually live in.
Why: names your employer and your city.
02Likely you, not confirmedComment on a public forum thread
Likely you, not confirmed
Comment on a public forum thread
forum-example.com/thread/48812
Same name, same field, no employer and no city anywhere on the page.
Why: the wording fits, nothing names you outright.
03Same nameBusiness registry entry, another country
Same name
Business registry entry, another country
registry-example.gov/company/338201
A director with your name, in a country you have never lived in.
Why: nothing on the page ties it to you.
04Not checkedDirectory listing behind a sign-in wall
Not checked
Directory listing behind a sign-in wall
directory-example.net/profile/1180
The page would not open for an automated check, so nobody has read it.
Why: no clean answer. We will not guess.

What you receive
The Personal Exposure Snapshot.
One deliberate look at what the public internet holds about your name, sorted into the four states, with a cleanup plan: what can come down, what can be closed, and exactly how.
- Over 20 surfaces checked, with every finding reviewed by a person.
- A coverage map on page one: what was checked, and what stayed dark.
- Breach history for the addresses you give us: names, dates and data types only, never passwords.
- A namesake check against public sanctions lists, so a wrong match is caught before someone else finds it.
- A cleanup plan, not just a list, with the opt-out route for each people-search site we name.
Your report explains available removal options and how to use them. You submit the requests yourself.
Pilot price, normally $99. Delivered within 48 hours.
Delivered within 48 hours of receiving your completed intake form.
The report covers the person who completes the intake.
No-questions refund. We only check people with their consent.
What happens next
How it works.
You order, then tell us what to check.
After checkout you land on a short intake form: your name, spellings, city, and anything you want us to look for. The 48-hour delivery period starts when we receive your completed form.
We run the checks and read the results.
The sweep is automatic. The judgment is not. Every finding is sorted into one of the four states and reviewed by a person before anything is written down.
You get the report within 48 hours.
A PDF that opens with the coverage map, then the findings in order of what needs action, then the cleanup plan. Questions afterward get a personal answer within 24 hours.
Human review and privacy
A person reads every report before it is sent.
The software does the sweep, and a person reviews the result before it reaches you. You are buying a report someone has actually read.
We are in a pilot, which is why the Snapshot is $49 instead of $99. Pilot buyers get the full report and a direct line to us. In exchange we ask for ten honest minutes of feedback afterward, by email. Feedback, not praise: what confused you, what was missing, what was worth it. That is the whole deal.
Two rules we never break: we only check people with their consent, and we tell you exactly what we can and cannot see.
Two promises before you buy.
Consent, always.
We check the person who completes the intake, and nobody else. Not a candidate, not an employee, not an ex. If you buy this as a gift, the intake goes to them, they consent for themselves, and the report goes to them. You will not see it.
How we handle your information
We collect the minimum needed to build your report. It is never resold, never shared, never reused. Your inputs and report are deleted 30 days after delivery unless you move to monitoring, and you can ask for earlier deletion at any time.
Reputation Radar is a service of VBInsights Solutions. Every report is read by a person before it is sent.

Two buckets is how people get told a stranger is them.
Most tools sort results into found and not found. That is how a business registry in a country you have never visited ends up printed as your own footprint, and how a page that nobody could open ends up counted as clear.
We sort every page into one of four states and print the state next to it.
A high-risk page is never quietly filed as a stranger. Attacks leave out identifying detail on purpose, so hiding those would reward the attack.
- Confirmed youThe page’s own wording points at you.Yours
- Likely youThe wording fits without naming you.Not confirmed
- Same nameNothing on the page ties it to you.Not you
- Not checkedNo clean answer. We say so instead of guessing.Unknown
Every line in your report carries one of these four words.
Why we hand you the route instead of filing for you
It is the part people expect us to do, so here is the honest reason we do not.
Consumer Reports
In 2024, Consumer Reports followed 32 volunteers for four months across seven paid removal services and thirteen people-search sites. Of 332 pieces of personal information, 117 came down. That is 35%. The two strongest services reached about two thirds, and Consumer Reports concluded that doing the work yourself was more effective than any of them.
The catch is that doing it yourself runs to ten or fifteen hours across the major brokers, and most of that time goes on working out which listings are actually you and where each opt-out form is buried.
So that is what we sell. We find the listings, tell you which ones are you, and hand you the route for each. Your report explains available removal options and how to use them. You submit the requests yourself.

“Yet I found my full name and address plus date of birth on Ancestry today. How do they get these details? How can I get rid of it?”

Email usChecking someone else, not yourself?
If a company, a recruiter, or a landlord approached you and you want them checked before you hand over money or documents, that is a different report. We sell it only to the person who was approached, never to an employer or a landlord.
Common questions
Is this spying?
No. Everything in the Snapshot is publicly visible information about you, gathered with your consent, for you. That is the opposite of spying.
Can you check my ex, my nanny, or a business partner?
No. We check a person only when that person asks to be checked and fills in the intake form themselves. You can pay for someone else’s Snapshot as a gift, but they choose whether to use it and the report goes to them, not to you. There is no version of this where you learn what is in someone else’s report. That is a hard rule, not a pricing tier.
Can I buy this for someone else?
Yes, and it stays their choice. After payment you get the intake page and you send it to them. They fill it in, they consent for themselves, and the report goes to them. You will not see it, and we will not tell you whether they used it. If nobody completes the intake within 30 days, we refund you without being asked.
What if you find nothing?
Then you get a short report saying so, with the coverage map showing where we looked. “Nothing found in the places that can be checked” is a real answer, and a useful one to hold before an interview or a deal. The refund still applies if you feel it was not worth it.
Can you remove the things you find?
Not with a magic button, and neither can anyone you pay: public pages belong to the people who put them up and the sites that host them. Anyone promising guaranteed removal is selling a feeling. What the Snapshot gives you is the honest version: an action plan built from your actual findings. Opt-out forms for the people-search sites it names, with what each form asks for. Closing links for old accounts your breach results point to, where a checked link exists, and plain guidance for the rest. Where reporting a page to the site that hosts it actually works. And what cannot come down, said plainly, so you spend effort where it pays. You file each request yourself: it is your name and your signature, and most requests take minutes to file once you know where they are.
Where does this work?
The Snapshot works anywhere: the sources are global, and the checks handle multiple languages, including Arabic and Farsi name variants. The Playbook’s takedown routes are written for US processes today; other regions follow the same logic with local complaint bodies.
Why is this $49 when agencies charge thousands?
Because it is a report with a person behind it, not a removal campaign or a retainer. There is no office tower and no sales team, just one person doing the work. $49 is the pilot price while Reputation Radar grows; it buys the same report the $99 price will.
Is any of this legal advice?
No. Everything here is practical guidance, not legal advice. If something in your report needs a lawyer, we will say so plainly in the report.
Look first, on your own terms.
The report covers the person who completes the intake. Refund, no questions. Deleted after 30 days.
