You wake up one morning to a horrifying news headline. A massive data breach has exposed a staggering 5.1 BILLION records, and yours could be one of them.
Is your personal information—your address, financial details, even your social security number—now out in the open? The thought is enough to send shivers down anyone's spine.
Data brokers are also victims. Learn how to opt out of PeopleDataLabs and manage your data with PurePrivacy.
PeopleDataLabs is a company that specializes in compiling data on individuals. They gather information from various compliant sources to create detailed profiles of over 3.1 billion people.
This data is then sold to businesses to enrich recruiting platforms, power AI models, and personalize marketing campaigns.
PeopleDataLabs gathers your information from public sources and other companies while obeying privacy rules. Here's how they do it:
They gather information from government records, social media profiles (if publicly viewable), and the broader public internet.
They might buy information from companies that gather lots of data, like what you buy (but without knowing it's you) or details from loyalty programs.
Opting out of PeopleDataLabs is about controlling your digital footprint. Here's why it might be important:
You might not be comfortable with a company compiling detailed profiles about you from various sources. Opting out limits the data they have on you.
PeopleDataLabs sells data for marketing purposes. Opting out reduces the chance of receiving irrelevant or unwanted marketing messages.
Large datasets can contain errors. Opting out allows you to avoid potential inaccuracies in your profile affecting you.
