⚠️ Troubleshooting

Q: I can't find the Opt-Out form? A: Scroll down to the bottom of the Opt-Out page. Sometimes it is hidden below the fold.

Q: I didn't receive the email? A: Check your Spam or Junk folder. If it's not there after 5 minutes, try submitting the request again.

Q: I have multiple listings? A: You must repeat this process for each unique profile URL you find.
