I don't understand how this practice is legal. There really should be a way to request that my driving data is deleted, or at least opt-out from having it sold.
I've also been trying to get LexisNexis to share a copy of my consumer file with me - which they refuse to do because of "identity verification" purposes, even though they don't ask any questions on the form to establish identity. I feel like they're intentionally making it hard for individuals to see what data they have on them.
- jll29 2y agoYou have that right if you are a EU citizen - under GDPR you can serve a subject data request (to first learn what they have on you) and then a deletion request ("right to be forgotten").
