How to remove your eBaum’s World account

We could not find any method for removing our test account. Besides, search engines give quite some complaints by other people not being able to. In that case the answer is mostly a common on: (1) contact them ( general@ebaumsworld.com ) and request removal of your account and related content. (2) If that doesn’t work, you may choose to obfuscate your data when logged in.

You may also want to contact the company providing this site: contact@viumbe.com and request opting out and/or removal of your data. Further, see the PP about data retention and so on: https://www.ebaumsworld.com/pages/privacy

Helpful Trick: Obfuscate your profile info.

Because most accounts and profiles at eBaum’s World cannot be removed, we suggest you login and change your account and profile information altogether.

Make sure you are logged in to your account on the site and click on the profile or options settings. Locate the fields with your personal info (email, name, address) and fill in generic, random information instead. If you can only select from several fields, change anything personally identifying. If possible, use a homepage/URL field or long text field (such as Description) and put this line in it: https://remove.org/removal-requested. This may encourage webmasters and admins to create an easier removal outlet.

Helpful Trick: Removing online data

Publicly visible text/images often aren’t properly removed even when you succeed in removing an account. Try editing or removing them manually before removing the account itself. If you’re unsure what happens to your tracks: this can be found mostly in the Terms of Service/Privacy Policy; otherwise you can always contact eBaum’s World and ask personally. By the way, removal requests don’t necessarily mean your data will actually be removed (e.g. due to legal obligations).
