These are the steps to opt out of Verizon “selling your personal data”, as far as I can tell:
Visit http://www.vzw.com/myprivacy http://www.vzw.com/myprivacy. If you are not already signed in to My Verizon, you will be prompted to sign in – after doing so, return to that myprivacy page.
Click the link “Manage Location Privacy settings” near the bottom, which points to https://locationmanagement.vzw.com/ https://locationmanagement.vzw.com/
You should now be at “Location Management” > “Location Privacy Settings”. I’m guessing that this is where you actually opt-out. I’m not sure because there’s nothing for me to do here – I see “There are no services available. A location service must be downloaded on the handset to be listed here.”.
- trafnar 14y agoExact same for me. I'd like to opt out but I have no idea how from the instructions provided.
- angelbob 14y agoDitto. But I'm using an iPhone, so maybe the Verizon-provided stuff is just not there?
- fl3tch 14y agoNo, I had several options on the page linked by OP. When I went to the locationmanagement.vzw.com page, it says, "There are no services available. A location service must be downloaded on the handset to be listed here."
- bryanjclark 14y agoAs far as I can tell, the Location section applies to Verizon-made apps, like their $5/mo navigation app. (Dunno who would sign up for a paid Verizon mapping service, though...)
