I was worried about this when I started using CreditKarma, too. Seven years of AMAs convinced me that unless the founder was a pathological liar playing a really long game, they probably didn't sell my information: "Do you spam member or sell your list? No, we send less than one email per month. We never sell, share, or rent any consumer PII with third parties." https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/c28od/i_started_credit_karma_we_provide_free_credit/ https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/c28od/i_started_credi... "We make money by selling advertising on the site. We never sell or share member information" https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/e0cfl/iama_entrepreneur_who_started_credit_karma_we/ https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/e0cfl/iama_entreprene... "Also let me point out that we don't make money by selling your information. It is against our privacy policy and we hate those tactics as much as you do." https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/2qq95l/i_am_the_founder_of_credit_karma_ask_me_anything/cn8inkp/?context=1 https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/2qq95l/i_am_the_found... "Definitely not. We hate that model too. We do just fine by showing you offers that we believe will save you money. We think that is a win win. As a test, I always suggest people create a unique email account just for us. See if you get any spam in that account. All bets are off if you use a crappy email provider ;)" https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/3zh78n/im_ken_lin_founder_and_ceo_of_credit_karma_id/cym57oi/?context=1 https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/3zh78n/im_ken_lin_fou...
