DeleteMe's privacy policy and terms of service (both at https://joindeleteme.com/legal/ https://joindeleteme.com/legal/ ) don't seem very reasonable for a company that claims to be in the service of privacy. The website asks for all sorts of personal information at signup and stores it all for use later, with no real promises that they won't do something malicious. (Although the privacy policy currently says they won't sell your data right back to Google, they also retain the right to change the policy at any time for any reason...)
- gonehome 5y agoYeah - it's a tradeoff. They need that information to actually carry out the service you're requesting of them (namely going around to all these shitty data brokers and going through their intentionally arduous processes to request removal). In order to do that they need to know the info to query against and remove. I can understand why someone wouldn't want to do that, but of the available options for this kind of thing I thought it was the best one.
