Somewhat off topic but, when I simply typed the site bill.com on Firefox's private browsing, scrolled down a bit, they show me a popup to chat and they have my first and last name there.
The same thing happened when I went on my cell using Firefox Focus, which doesn't keep any cookies.
1. Anyone else seeing this?
2. I hate it
3. Where do they get this info from?
- bduerst 7y agoNothing for me. This is a Drift chat widget so they have your information stored somewhere, probably from some interaction you had with it on a different site. They also appear to do IP lookup as well.
- fmpwizard 7y agoThanks, it looks like it is IP lookup, I used another phone (not mine) and they also showed my name there.
- masonic 7y agoI got right into their site, but boy, what a godawful chat popup (which doesn't actually let you chat).
- rfurmani 7y agoThey had my company name there, even in incognito mode
- welder 7y agoData partnerships give them your info associated with IP, then LinkedIn lookup gives them your company.
- coolspot 7y agoIt greets me as “Hi Dynamic Duo Training! What brings you to Bill.com?”. I guess my dynamic residential IP is associated with that firm somewhere somehow.
- SOLAR_FIELDS 7y agoFor me it says “Hi there! What brings you to Bill.com?”. Guess that is the response you get when they aren’t able to mine who you are.
