How to opt out of Data Axle USA

  1. 1

    Open the privacy rights request page

    Go to data-axle.com/privacy-rights-request. One form covers opting out of sale or sharing, access, deletion and correction.

  2. 2

    Pick your request

    Opting out stops Data Axle selling or sharing your information. Deletion removes certain information it maintains about you. Ask for both if you want both.

  3. 3

    Submit the form

    It loads on the page itself.

  4. 4

    Agents use a separate form

    If someone files on your behalf, Data Axle points them to its Authorized Agent Privacy Rights Request Form.

Watch out for

  • Data Axle says it may delete only "certain" information it maintains about you, not necessarily everything.
  • Its California filing says it collects personal information of minors and is a HIPAA business associate for some customers.
  • Its California filing also says it shared or sold data to a developer of a GenAI system or model in the past year.

  • Employment and education

What Data Axle USA is known to collect, not a check of your listing.

Does it come back?

Data Axle doesn't publish a relisting policy. Its site says its consumer and business records are continuously verified and refreshed, so it keeps taking in new data.

Your rights

Data Axle is on California's data broker registry. For 2024 it reported 41,547 opt-out-of-sale requests and 37,141 deletion requests, all completed. The mean response was 12 days, the median 9.

California: CCPA. If you live in California, the CCPA lets you ask a business to delete the personal information it holds about you and to stop selling or sharing it. Businesses generally have 45 days to respond.

California: the Delete Act. Data brokers that hold information on Californians must register with the state. California residents can use DROP, the state's Delete Request and Opt-out Platform, to send one deletion request to every registered broker at once.

Other US states. Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Texas, Oregon and a growing list of other states give residents a similar right to delete. Vermont, Texas and Oregon also make data brokers register with the state. Where no state law applies, the broker's own opt-out above still works for most people.

General information, not legal advice.
