Your listing
Remove your listing
If you hold the commission, you can have your profile taken down and kept down. Here is exactly what to send, and what happens next.
Where the listing came from
We did not ask you for any of it
Your listing is built from your state's published notary roster. NotaryOT did not collect it from you, and nothing on an unclaimed profile comes from anywhere else — we never add contact details to an unclaimed listing from other sources.
We never publish your mailing address. It is in the roster we ingest, it is frequently a home address, and it does not appear on any page, in any search result, or in any email we send.
The most direct route
Claim the profile, then remove it
In California, claiming asks for three things that appear on your own commission record: the commission number, the expiration date, and the mailing address your state holds. The comparison runs inside our database and answers only yes or no — we do not see, log or keep what you type, and there is nothing to send us. Other states verify differently; the claim form shows what yours needs.
Once you are signed in, the control is in Settings on your dashboard.
If you would rather not claim it
Ask us directly
You do not have to create an account to be removed. Use the contact form and choose “Remove my listing”, or write to hello@notaryot.com.
So we do not take down the wrong person's listing, we need one of these — and nothing beyond it:
A completed claim, as above — the strongest option, and the one that asks you for the least.
A signed statement, under penalty of perjury, that you hold the commission and want the listing removed. No notarization needed.
A photo of your commission certificate or notary ID with everything covered except your name, commission number and expiration date.
We will not ask you for a Social Security number, a driver's licence, a date of birth, or anything else beyond the above.
What removal does
It stays removed
- The profile page stops resolving, and the listing comes off every other page we control — search results, city and county pages, and our sitemap. We ask Google to drop the URL from its index.
- Your commission goes on a permanent suppression list, so the roster refresh cannot republish it — including after you renew, when your state issues a new commission number.
- You get written confirmation once it is done, saying exactly what was removed and what is now on the suppression list.
What removal does not do
The parts we do not control
Your commission record stays public at your state's Secretary of State — we do not hold that record and cannot change it. Other sites publish the same roster, and removal here has no effect on them.
We do not delete the roster row on our side either. It stops being published anywhere, and it stays in our data so that every roster refresh keeps recognising it and keeps it suppressed. That is what makes the removal survive.
If something is wrong rather than unwanted
We would rather fix it
If the listing is yours but shows the wrong city, an expired commission or a name that is no longer right, the contact form has a separate topic for that. A correction is the one that helps people who are looking for you.
