About Cloaked data removal

The problem

Your data is out there.

You aren’t alone - years of online shopping, creating accounts, social media, and browsing means each of us has a lengthy trail of data spanning across the internet. This data trail can include anything from innocuous details like your public social media account names to sensitive information like your social security number, addresses, family members, and more.

Data brokers make it their business to know your personal information.

Companies called data brokers exist to harvest your data for profit. They compile bits of your personal information and create a profile about you, which can then be sold to advertisers to use as they please.

Dozens of data brokers each have their own profile about you, constituting hundreds of records in total that can be legally bought and sold online.

Why do I need data removal?

Even if you accept that advertising is the cost of admission for a (mostly) free and open internet, the fact that your data is exchanged online between data brokers without your consent puts you at risk.

Should your data fall into the wrong hands, you could be at risk of spam, financial scams, or even identity theft.

The longer you use the internet, the greater the chances are that your sensitive data could fall into the wrong hands. Removing your data trail from the internet is critical to your online safety.
