What is OPTX?
OPTX (Online Privacy Tool eXtractor) is an Open Source Intelligence assistant that helps users understand their digital footprint. It gives transparent access to public telecom and data broker lookup links so you can see where personal information may be exposed.
OPTX focuses on people search sites, data brokers that collect names, addresses, phone numbers, relatives, and other personal details. Exposed data can increase the risk of spam, robocalls, account takeovers, identity theft, harassment, and doxing.
Privacy: OPTX is a static website. Your searches are not saved here, nothing is sent to an OPTX database, and there is no backend collecting your personal data. Result links are generated locally in your browser.
Note: OPTX does not target employment screening, tenant screening, credit reporting, or other regulated background-check services. It is focused on public people-search lookup and opt-out links.
