Your personal data is everywhere.
Your privacy tools shouldn't be.

PrivacyShroud is an AI Agent Skill open source project that runs on your machine and automatically finds and removes your personal information from data broker sites. Unlike SaaS services, your data stays on your machine.

What is PrivacyShroud

Data brokers and people-search sites collect your name, address, phone number, and personal history -- and sell it to anyone who asks. PrivacyShroud is an open-source AI agent skill that finds your listings across hundreds of these sites and automatically submits opt-out requests on your behalf. Then it watches for relisting and does it again.

01 -- Discover
Find where you're listed
The agent searches hundreds of data broker and people-search sites to find listings containing your personal information. You see everything it finds before anything is submitted.
02 -- Opt out
Automated removal requests
For each listing found, the agent navigates the site's opt-out process -- filling forms, solving CAPTCHAs, handling confirmation emails -- automatically, in a real browser you can watch.
03 -- Monitor
Catch relisting automatically
Brokers relist removed profiles, often within weeks. PrivacyShroud rechecks on a schedule you control and re-submits removal requests without you lifting a finger.
04 -- Evidence
A record that's yours
Every run produces timestamped artifacts -- screenshots, opt-out records, recheck reports -- stored locally on your machine. You own the evidence. No other service gives you this.
// why_different

The PrivacyShroud Difference

The central irony of services like Incogni and DeleteMe: to protect your privacy, you hand your personal information to another company running on servers you can't inspect. PrivacyShroud runs entirely on your own hardware. Your profile, opt-out history, and evidence artifacts are never transmitted to NetShroud.

To be totally transparent: your personal information is never transmitted to NetShroud. However, a PrivacyShroud subscription requires a valid email address for signup, and NetShroud does gather usage metrics and broker playbook exception events so that we can improve and adapt to data broker defenses, making PrivacyShroud better for everyone. See our Privacy Policy for details on what information we gather, and what third parties may gather when you use PrivacyShroud. We believe transparency here matters more than a marketing claim.
