During the process of removing multiple peoples profiles at once, I missed quite a few and moved ahead to step 3 before realizing I had overlooked those in my inbox. Great, another easy one, just make sure not to assume every 'confirmation email' is confirming that the removal has been completed. Other sites will respond confirming they have received your request but you are required to open another link to complete the removal request.
Make sure to check in couple days, if not done, on to step 3. Some sites will respond stating it has been completed and to allow 24-48 hours to update. Make sure to include all URLs where you're found on the site (many have multiple profiles of you with different spelling of name, etc) and don't forget the index page of their site. This prevents sharing your email address with any of these companies.Įmail each sites support, privacy, or contactus email address (using the reverse alias copied from SimpleLogin) stating that you have already attempted to use the opt out tool or link (whether you have or not) with no success and are requesting that they remove profile and delete all associated data from their servers. I made an alias for myself & each person I was opting out for. I got pretty fed up jumping hoops & running circles they attempt to throw at you.Ĭreate an account with SimpleLogin. Just an FYI - here are the steps I took during this process and found to be much easier/expedited. Orgīuilding the global movement for the protection of privacy.
