Pricing

Fixed fees, set out before you pay.

AboutUs is a paid service. Every fee here is fixed and in US dollars, and what it covers is in writing before you pay. They are set out by situation: response work first, every other service at the end.

Before you pay

How payment and refunds work

Response engagements and case activation
You pay a fixed fee at the start. A person reviews your case within 48 hours of payment. If we can’t take it, you get a full refund.
After we accept it, you can still cancel for a full refund until work starts. Once it has, it isn’t refunded, because filed work can’t be undone.
No subscription, no payment plan and no automatic upgrade.
Private clients
Agreed in a written proposal, with its cancellation terms. Nothing is charged before you accept it.
Other services
Your card is charged at checkout on Stripe’s page. Every order then gets a 48-hour acceptance review, and anything we cannot accept is refunded in full before work begins.
Several items, news, or not sure
Request a written quote. Any price is in writing before you pay.

Before anything happens

Private clients

Protection set up before anything happens: an annual retainer, by written proposal. For a founder or executive, a public figure, or a family or household office.

Private Client Protection

From $18,000 per year per named principal 12-month retainer

Annual retainer

A 12-month retainer for a written perimeter of named people, handles, and entities: scheduled automated checks, removal requests for accepted items, and a written response plan. Price, check schedule, billing schedule, and refund and cancellation terms are set in a written proposal before any payment.

Search, reviews and records

Other services

Narrow, clearly defined work at a fixed price. Truthful news reporting and official court records are generally outside fixed-price scope; we decline them before work begins. No item covers anyone under 18: that goes to NCMEC, never to a paid service.

9 fixed-price services: what each includes, its fee and its rules
  • Digital Exposure Diagnostic

    $149 one-time written report

    Included

    • You send the names, handles, and aliases to search — we confirm receipt before starting

    • A plain-English read on severity and the right next step

    Not included

    • Removal or delisting work itself (priced separately)
    • A complete census of everything that could exist — this is a point-in-time public scan
    • Any intimate-image or sextortion handling (that starts with the guided private case)

    Done when

    The written report is delivered to you.

    Refund

    Full refund until we start the report; complete once delivered.

    Refund

    Full refund if we can’t accept it, or if the result receipt isn’t delivered within 30 days. Not tied to removal.

  • Single Post / Article Removal

    Refund

    Full refund if we can’t accept it; each URL not verified removed within 30 days gets its share back.

    • Add or swap keywords anytime
    • Cancel anytime — we email you a secure billing-portal link; billing stops from the next cycle

    • Removal work itself — monitoring reports what appears; removal is priced separately as its own item or private case
    • Search-ranking manipulation or pay-for-play ranking games
    • Monitoring for intimate images (handled through a private case review, not a rate-card subscription)

    Refund

    Cancel anytime; billing stops from the next cycle.

    Full refund if we can’t accept it; each video not verified removed within 30 days is refunded.

For removal items: Outcomes vary. Third parties make the final decision, and your written scope defines what counts as done and how refunds work. Refund terms and exceptions.

Eligibility check

A quick check before any payment.

The fixed-price items above without a short form start here, with two safety questions.

Tell us what needs attention and we point you to the item that fits, or to a private review or a written quote when no fixed price does.

Questions

Before you pay.

What will my card statement show?

Shows on your card statement as ABOUTUS, INC. (your bank may shorten it). You enter card details only on Stripe’s page.

What if you can’t remove it?

We review every rate-card order within 48 hours and refund in full anything we can’t accept, before work begins. Once we accept an item, its “done when” rule and refund rule apply, and hosts, platforms and search engines make the final decision.

Read the refund terms, including the exceptions.

What do the result labels mean?

Every accepted item is reported with one of four labels.

Request submitted
We sent a notice or report. That is activity, not a result — nothing has changed yet, and it is never reported as a removal or a delisting.
Source removed
The accepted page, post, or copy is no longer available where it was published.
Search delisted
A search engine no longer shows the result; the page itself may still be online.
Unresolved
The item is still available, or the change cannot be verified yet.
What can’t I buy here?

Anything involving someone under 18: report it to NCMEC’s CyberTipline (opens in a new tab). Truthful news reporting and official court records, which generally sit outside fixed-price scope. Work spread across several sites. For those, or if you’re not sure, request a written quote.

Not sure which one fits?

Tell us what's happening. We'll say plainly what we can do and what it costs.
