What Is Zabasearch?
Zabasearch is a people search and public information aggregator that gathers information from government, commercial, and marketing databases.
It does not generate original content, nor does it host any; instead, it is designed to serve as an information aggregator already publicly available through outlets such as:
- Property ownership and deed records
- Voter registration lists
- Business and marketing directories
- Court and marriage filings
- official White Pages and directory enquiries endregion.
While this data is legal to find and display due to U.S. public records laws, it might contain info you didn’t know was in the public realm – like past addresses or linked phone numbers.
Zabasearch’s parent company, PeopleConnect, also owns Intelius, USSearch and TruthFinder – sites with similar data networks.
