Who we share your data with

We share your data with databrokers, people search website, and privacy services (the sites listed on our covered sites page). We can't remove your data from their sites without sharing it with them. That's how it works. It is often data that is already on their websites. It is usually your name, address, phone number, email, etc.

We do not share your data with anyone else. We don't share with advertisers, social media, marketers, or anyone similar. We value privacy.

How we use your data

We use data you provide to us for the services you request: we opt you out of people search sites and data broker services. We sign you up for do not call and similar services. We delete log data after 6 months. We only keep financial transaction data as required by law for fraud purposes. We use your data for research and development to develop new product and service and to improve existing services (e.g., to add a new site to opt you out of).

Who we sell your data to:

Nobody.

Law enforcement

We don't share your data with anyone unless compelled by law with a valid court order. We share the minimum we can. We have not had to share any data with law enforcement to date.
