Your personal data is being bought and sold right now as we speak. Hi, I'm Caitlin. I'm a cybersecurity and data protection expert and I want to help you delete your data online. Let's go. Step one, see where your information is exposed. To do this, go to Google and then type in your first and last name and then write phone number after look at all the sites on there that have your personal details and they're literally available for anyone to see. FYI, these data broker sites have your name, email, IP addresses, your post home address, your parents address, your parents name, your sibling's name. They have so much data on you. The next step is to manually remove your information from all these data broker sites. And if you don't know how to do it, follow my how to delete your data series on this platform. Now, I'm going to warn you, it might take a little bit of time because there are hundreds of data broker sites out there with your personal information that's selling it to the public, or not even selling it, but offering it for free. That's why I use a data removal service like Incogni, because it helps me remove my information from the data broker sites, which basically just means that I don't have to spend the time going in and manually removing my name. Incogni literally handles all the deletion service for you, so you don't even have to worry about it.
