Guides

Short, plain guides to how data brokers work and what you can actually demand. Not legal advice — primary sources are linked in each.

• How data brokers get your information

  The pipeline that turns everyday records into a for-sale profile — and why you have to opt out in so many places.

• Your opt-out rights: CCPA/CPRA vs GDPR, in plain terms

  What you can actually demand, depending on where you live — and how a data broker has to respond.

• A reusable opt-out request letter

  A short, firm template you can send when a broker has no online form — or ignores the one it has.
