- Our free platform also provides unprecedented and unparalleled visibility into where your personal information is being posted and sold online.
The problem we’re dedicated to solving
The problem we’re dedicated to solving
Thousands of companies collect personal information about you and then sell or expose it without your permission.
These companies are known as “data brokers” and they’ve been taking advantage of consumers for decades.
Some data brokers are trusted household names you’d never expect like Albertsons, Forbes, Mastercard, Oracle, The Weather Company (IBM), Tivo, TripAdvisor and Visa, and others are companies you’ve probably never heard of. All the major consumer credit reporting companies such as Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion are data brokers.
DATA BROKERS INTENTIONALLY MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO OPT OUT
It’s challenging and time consuming, especially since most of them operate in the shadows by design, unknown to the average consumer.
Those that do operate in the open typically make it difficult or nearly impractical to opt out. It’s no wonder they do this, there’s a fortune at stake in the ~$160 billion market for consumer data.
We’ve taken up these problems as our challenge and dedicated ourselves to put customers in control of their personal data.
