Opt out of all the data sharing you wouldn’t opt in to.

Posted on September 4, 2019 by pogowasright.org

Here’s a site that you may want to check out:  https://simpleoptout.com/

From its home page:

Simple Opt Out is drawing attention to opt-out data sharing and marketing practices that many people aren’t aware of (and most people don’t want), then making it easier to opt out. For example:

  • Target “may share your personal information with other companies which are not part of Target.”
  • Chase may share your “account balances and transaction history … For nonaffiliates to market to you.”
  • Crate & Barrel may share “your customer information [name, postal address and email address, and transactions you conduct on our Website or offline] with other select companies.”

This site makes it easier to opt out of data sharing by 50+ companies (or add a company, or see opt-out tips). Enjoy!
