So where do I go to see my profile and data? I got a kick out of requesting my lexis nexis profiles - which eventually resulted in two very large packets of paper (several hundred pages) arriving in the mail.


If you want a real trip, I'd suggest getting your data from DT Client Services via CCPA request if you are in California. That was really shocking.


What process did you follow? Were there costs associated with printing, delivery, etc?


I sent them an email with my request. The email address can be found on the CA Attorney General's webpage here https://oag.ca.gov/data-brokers?combine=dt+client I used the form from Epic which is on this page https://epic.org/ccpa/ There are no costs associated with this and they are required to provide the information to you up to two times in a year. Not every business must comply.


I highly recommend requesting your data from Verizon (if you’re a vzw customer). A 10mb spreadsheet, very enlightening. Not too difficult to request but took 2-3 weeks to arrive.

What is the process requesting from lexis nexis?


I did that about 10 years ago. The packet didn't make much sense to me then. I wonder if I still have it somewhere. It would be interesting to request it again and see what changed.
