Watch out for
- The opt-out covers firm offers of credit or insurance that you didn't ask for. It isn't deletion of your Innovis file.
- Innovis's own notice says the request is also sent to Equifax. And to Experian and TransUnion. One form, four bureaus.
- The five-year opt-out only works if Innovis can find a credit file for you from the details you give.
- The mailing addresses differ between sources, so confirm the one on Innovis's page before you send a letter.
- You can opt back in later at optoutprescreen.com.

Does it come back?
Note the date. The online opt-out lasts five years, and the permanent version needs the mailed form.
Your rights
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.
