This Is Not a Government Office or Records Custodian. Palo Alto People Search is privately run. We cannot retrieve or certify records, verify a person's residence, or remove data from another system. Those requests belong with the official custodian. Call 911 for an emergency. Contact local law enforcement if you believe someone is stalking or harassing you.
