Have you ever wondered what kind of data is being stored about you?
If not, you might want to consider learning about it!
With data breaches occurring with awful regularity, knowing what information is being stored about you by some of your favorite websites could be important if they get breached!
Many companies will make it difficult to get the info and others will make it a breeze.
Wouldn’t it be great if there was a way to easily get that data?
As it turns out there is! There is a website called My Data Request and they propose to make the process as painless and as quick as possible.
Here is what they have to say:
Request your personal data from 100+ companies.
Hundreds of companies store & process information about you. In many cases, you’re entitled to this data, as well as information on how it’s being used & shared. We read these companies’ privacy policies to figure out how you can get this data about you.
See how to request your personal data from the companies you care about and the services you use everyday, such as Amazon, Uber, and Wells Fargo. We codified the request process for 100+ companies to make it easy for you.
Sometimes a data request is as easy as clicking Download My Data. But often times it’s not so easy. Drafting your data request might require filling out an online form, sending an email, or mailing a letter. We made templates to get you started.
Fire off your data requests – and you’re done! It may take a few weeks for companies to reply to you. Be sure to let us know how it goes.
So, take a few minutes to visit and book mark their website at https://mydatarequest.com/ and submit a few data requests to see what is being stored about you!
