In compliance with the new CCPA Data protection laws, companies that make over $25 million per year or collect data from more than 50,000 people are required to provide their users access to their data.
After poking around, I discovered that companies don't make it a very user friendly experience to request access to, delete, or request not to sell your data. Sometimes you need to fill out one form - sometimes several. Sometimes you even need to send an email to a privacy team with a picture of your driver's license.
I thought it would be useful to make a simple resource I could share with friends and family that makes the process more straightforward. It's not a comprehensive list of companies, but if it's seen as a useful, I'll continue to add resources/information to the site.
