How we do it

Our route for Merkle Inc.

We file the strongest instrument available for your state, not whichever form is easiest.

  1. California residents
    A DROP filing through the state platform. Merkle Inc. is legally required to check it every 45 days and delete you — no form, no confirmation email, no discretion.
  2. The other 19 states with privacy laws
    A statutory deletion demand citing your state's own act, with the response deadline stated on its face.
  3. Everyone
    A written deletion request to the privacy contact on their state filing.
  4. Then, forever
    Re-verification at 7, 30 and 90 days, then every 45 days. If your listing reappears, we refile and tell you.
