If you google your screen name all of your private information pops up even though the box is checked on your profile as "Do Not Share".

That's true. If I google my screenname Sunnyview, I get a lot of hits for schools, hospitals, townhouses etc. If I google my screenname Sunnyview with Zillow, my profile page comes up at the top of the search.

You can choose a generic Zillow screenname that is more buried in the google results. Or use a name that does not suggest in any way who your are, but Advice is not a sealed forum so what you type here does come up in searches. That is why I always advise people not to post their address or phone number here in the forum.

If you have posts in another profile that identify you, you can ask for their deletion or you can change your screenname and it will drop out of google searches in a month or two.
