About each of us stored information on the Internet. Profiles on social networks, data on the cloud, old records on the forums, which we have long forgotten, and much more.
For those who decided to start life from pure sheet, we have compiled an action plan, how to remove all the information on the Internet.
Let's start with social networks

In each social network, you can delete your account. Remember what social networks you were registered, and delete from each. When deactivating the account, your name, photos and most of the materials you shared with friends are automatically deleted. In case you change your mind, social networks provide the ability to restore the page. "VKontakte", for example, you can restore a page for 7 months.
We remember the past
Remember where you ever recorded. Were diary in LiveJournal at school? Come in your profile and delete the account. If you forget the password, each site has a reminder - you need to enter your email address, and you will come a letter with an old password. And emails are stored letters - registration confirmation. After reviewing the history of correspondence, you can find forgotten forums and sites.
Time to fantasize
On some sites you cannot delete your account. A fantasy comes to the rescue. Write any fictional name, city and other information.
Remove from search engines
Whether in the search bar your name and surname or, for example, the nickname you used on the forum. If the search results have information about you, you need to hide it. For example, how to do it in Google, you can read here.
We associate with the guidance of sites
From some sites you will not be able to delete information yourself. In this case, you need to contact webmasters. The address of their email can usually be found in the "Contacts" section. Write them to the letter and ask you to delete the data about you. On some sites, you can contact the administration in the "Write to us" section.
On the Internet there is someone who knows a lot about you
There are sites that any spy dreams about. They are about to make information about all your actions on the Internet. Registered on the site at the email address or mobile phone number? Now your records will appear at least at SPOKEO, PeopleFiners and Intelius. In order to remove from there information about yourself, you will also have to communicate with the support service.
Last step
It remains only to remove your email. Be sure to do it at the very last moment, since it may need you to communicate with support services.
