How to opt out of Closely

  1. 1

    Open the opt-out page

    It's at closelyhq.com/opt-out and carries an erasure form.

  2. 2

    Give the details Closely holds on you

    The privacy policy says it may check your identity before acting.

  3. 3

    Allow up to a month, and possibly more

    If it needs an extension it says it will tell you within one month of receiving the request.

Watch out for

  • The policy says Closely may charge a reasonable fee where the law allows it.
  • Closely says it keeps suppression lists for unsubscribes, so an email opt-out from a campaign is a separate thing from erasure.

What Closely holds about you

  • Full name and aliases
  • Email addresses
  • Employment and education
  • Social media profiles

What Closely is known to collect, not a check of your listing.

Does it come back?

Closely doesn't publish a relisting policy. Its blog says it keeps suppression lists for people who unsubscribe.

Your rights

For California residents, the policy says Closely doesn't sell your data, so there is no sale opt-out. Its GDPR section covers erasure.
