Simple Opt Out
Simple Opt Out (via Troy Davis):
Simple Opt Out is drawing attention to opt-out data sharing and marketing practices that many people aren’t aware of (and most people don’t want), then making it easier to opt out. For example:
- Target “may share your personal information with other companies which are not part of Target.”
- Chase may share your “account balances and transaction history … For nonaffiliates to market to you.”
- Crate & Barrel may share “your customer information [name, postal address and email address, and transactions you conduct on our Website or offline] with other select companies.”
