  1. 1

    Read Brandwatch's request page

    Brandwatch publishes a data subject access request page that links to the request form.

  2. 2

    Submit the data subject request form

    The form is linked in this guide's opt-out field and in the California registry entry. Choose the request type that fits.

  3. 3

    Include your social handle

    Brandwatch says it indexes public posts by social handle, so give the usernames you want checked.

    The registry lists dpo@cision.com. The request page lists +1-855-368-1500.

Watch out for

  • Brandwatch says it doesn't index by name, email or phone, so a request with only those may find nothing.
  • Brandwatch only shows public posts. Deleting a post at the source is a separate step.
  • Its California registry entry reports no deletion requests in 2024.
