Subject: Deletion and opt-out request (personal data) - [Your full name]
To the Privacy Team at AudienceLab (audiencelab.io): I am a resident of California. I am submitting this request myself, not through an agent. I ask AudienceLab to: 1. Delete all personal information you hold about me, including identity-graph and visitor-identification records, hashed identifiers, and any records obtained from or shared with partners, and to direct your service providers and contractors to do the same; 2. Stop selling or sharing my personal information, including for cross-context behavioral advertising and visitor identification, and record a permanent opt-out; 3. Confirm in writing what categories of personal information you held about me, the sources, and the third parties you disclosed it to. I make this request under: - the right to delete under Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.105 - the right to opt out of sale and sharing under Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.120 - the right to know under Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.110 - the Tex. Bus. & Com. Code ch. 541 (Texas Data Privacy and Security Act), to the extent you process data about Texas residents The identifiers you may use to locate my records are: Name: [Your full name] Email: [the email address you want removed] Phone: [your phone number, optional] Mailing address: [street address], [city], CA [ZIP] State of residence: California Please use this information only to verify and fulfil this request.

Questions people ask
- Why did a store email me after I visited without signing up?
- The store runs AudienceLab's pixel. When you load a page, the pixel matches your browser to an identity graph built from past sign-ups, data-broker lists and cookies, and hands the store your name and email. The store then emails you as if you had opted in.
- Is it legal to make AudienceLab delete my data?
- Yes. California residents have the right to delete (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.105) and to opt out of sale or sharing (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.120); Texas residents have equivalent rights under Tex. Bus. & Com. Code ch. 541 (Texas Data Privacy and Security Act); most other states with privacy laws grant the same. Many brokers honor requests from any US state as a matter of policy.
- How long does AudienceLab take?
- Policy: within 15 business days of receipt.
- Will they come back?
- Often. Identity graphs are rebuilt from new data, so a deleted record can reappear months later. Re-filing every 90 days, and detecting when the pixel fires again, is what keeps you out.
