      My personal information has been entered on Unicourt's website. I have requested that the information be redacted per their protocol. I was granted a 6-month request to redact my information instead of removal per their company protocol. My information is however not properly redacted, and you can still find & connect my personal information online on their website. I am asking for it to be properly removed/redacted.

      I contacted UniCourt & went through their recommended redaction request process to, righteously/justifiably permanently remove my court case from the internet. Initially, they complied, however it was then reposted.?. I then filed a complaint (3 rebuttals) with the Better Business Bureau & was astonished that they did not respect my first request. I am a senior citizen with disabilities that was a victim of identify theft and, understandably, want all of my personal information kept private and not exposed on the internet; I am certainly entitled to consumer privacy protection. It was strongly recommended that I file a complaint with the CA Office of the Attorney General that will be my next step to address this issue if not resolved amicably with UniCourt.
