Data Request Maker

Tell a company to delete your data, stop selling it, or show you what they hold. New here? Read What They Actually Know About You first.

🔒 Private by design: everything you type stays in your browser. Nothing is sent, saved, or uploaded — the request is built on your device for you to copy and send yourself.

The basics

So they can find your records. Don't add more sensitive ID than they ask for.

Your request

Rights and wording vary by place; this cites the most relevant law honestly.

Your request


    
Sending it:
  • Send it to the company's privacy contact — often privacy@ their domain, or a form linked in their privacy policy (look for "Your privacy rights").
  • They may need to verify it's really you. Use their official channel; don't email extra sensitive ID unless asked.
  • Keep a copy and the date. Many laws require a response within roughly a month (it varies).
  • Ignored? You can complain to your data protection authority — e.g. your national DPA (EU), the ICO (UK), the California Privacy Protection Agency / AG, or the Data Protection Board (India).

Free and public domain (CC0). Runs entirely in your browser — no accounts, no tracking, nothing uploaded. Practical help, not legal advice; your rights vary by country.
