About Incogni

Incogni, a tool that helps prevent your personal information from being stored and sold by data brokers. Upon the customers’ request, the tool identifies and communicates with dozens of data broker companies, so that the person’s details can be deleted from their databases. Leading names in the data brokerage industry currently own data on hundreds of millions of consumers, some boasting up to 1500 data points per consumer. With the introduction of GDPR and CCPA, all these companies are subject to giving or deleting information they hold on the person if they receive a formal request. However, contacting each firm could take ages due to the excessive response frameworks companies have crafted and perfected. Surfshark’s team of researchers contacted 36 data broker companies on their own to show how difficult this process can be. To get a final response took a little over 6 days from our first letter with each new data broker and more than 20 days with each established one. Furthermore, 63% of the large data brokers asked for additional personal data which is not necessary to complete the inquiry (outside of ID copy), asking for a bank statement or even e-signature and thus prolonging the procedure. “Data privacy is becoming an increasingly alarming issue, yet many people are still unaware of the hidden market that data brokers operate in,” – points out Vytautas Kaziukonis, Chief Executive Officer of Surfshark. “As the sensitivity and scope of data they possess widen, so does the need to be able to opt-out of it. However, based on recent studies, the actual process of taking back data is an extremely tedious procedure, which requires legal knowledge and lots of persistence. “Incogni aims to help users opt-out of these practices more efficiently and exercise their legal right to privacy easily.” The Incogni privacy tool is available for purchase at the official link: https://incogni.com.

I feel Incogni is having a positive effect I have not used this type of service prior to incogni. I think the price is reasonable. It is shocking to see how many groups are out there using and selling my data. My impression is that Incogni's efforts have reduced the phishing and spam e-mail I get, but I don't have hard pre and post-Cogni data to be all sciency about it. I'm not sure about the effect on spam phone calls since it is election time and those people are totally insistent and annoying. My understanding is that legally, they can annoy you as much as they want, regardless of my own or other's efforts to get them to put a lid on it.

Well worth the subscription! The moment I signed up I noticed all the spam e-mails suddenly stopped. Time will tell about the robo callers. I love the progress reports--very well designed. Had no idea I was on so many targeted ad lists! Before I signed up, I asked a web development friend (web advertising) if he said it was worth the money. He said he received a request from Incogni to remove another individual from their mailing list and they're not even very well known company. It's amazing how you end up on so many lists over the years. I know I sound like a paid advert for this company, but I'm usually frugal and hate spending money. This was definitely worth the outlay!
