What did your city and state’s regulators think? Just because clearview says fuck off because you’re not in California, your local people may not appreciate the fuck off so much. Also, ask for what clear view has on you, not just removal. Sometimes they’re still obliged to correct any incorrect records even if they don’t have to legally remove them. And don’t email them. Send a letter with a stamp with a CD. That’s how my government responds when I ask them for records.

That’s what’s interesting. My state has a law going into effect soon that covers requesting the removal of facial data, but at the moment it hasn’t started yet. Presumably once it goes into effect, Clearview would be legally obligated to remove my data. Also, forgive me for asking this dumb question, but what do you mean by send a letter with a CD? What does CD stand for? Is it some kind of certificate of receipt? I tried looking it up, but didn’t find much about it. Also, in terms of asking what they have on me, I have basically been unable to have any communication with them. Others seem to have the same issue. In general, Clearview takes months to respond to any sort of email (at least for me). I sent one semi-recently from a different email address. Hopefully they respond to that.

    Nope, compact disc. It’s really annoying since none of my computers have one and even a PlayStation can’t open pdfs. But these are recipient problems. And yeah, they even do it for 4mb files. Sometimes even with a custom sticker label. And they send me emails to say they’ve sent the records in the mail. Though recorded/certified delivery is a good idea too.
