Clean up your digital footprint
Every time you go online or use an app, you leave a little digital footprint. And the thing about footprints is that they can be followed. Hackers and scammers are constantly scraping the internet to find those footprints and build a profile on you so that they can use the information to scam you. But you can do something about it.
Rightly Protect is 100% free
You can minimise your chances of being scammed by deleting your data with as many companies as you like. Doing this cleanses the amount of information about you online and makes it much harder for companies and scammers to know how to contact you.
Remember, it's your legal right to decide how your information is being used and what for.
The easiest way to reduce the amount of scams you receive, from email phishing to phone scams, is by minimising your personal data online. You can do this with Rightly Protect, quickly and for free.
If you have personal data in a company’s database it’s at risk of being lost or stolen in a data breach. If that happens, it can make you more vulnerable by it being used against you in a scam.
If you don’t want a company to have your data any more, or they simply no longer need it, then use Rightly Protect to get it deleted. If a company doesn’t have your data, they can’t lose it or have it stolen. With Rightly Protect you can delete your data from any company’s site, in one go and for free.
Unsubscribing doesn’t delete your data.
Even if you’ve hit ‘unsubscribe’ in an email, your personal info can still be exposed in a data theft and could fall into the hands of criminals, because unsubscribing from emails doesn’t delete your data.

Apps and websites collect a wide range of personal data which can include:
- Name, address and contact details
- Bank and insurance details
- IP Address & Cookie identifiers
- Marital status and number of children
- Political opinions and affiliations
- Important dates: birthdays, anniversaries & special occasions
- Economic, social and cultural information
- Links to credit reports and cultural information
- Debit and credit card details
Sometimes, it’s helpful to have your data shared. But not without your consent. What happens to your data and who it's shared with often isn't made clear, and in particular, that it gets sold on and used to better target you with advertising.
Understandably, many people find this extremely invasive.
Why should I delete the data held by companies?
The data that apps and websites store is private.
In a data breach, or if a company sells your data, it can fall into the wrong hands and be used in a scam against you.
What happens to your data should be up to you.
Data Collection
Collecting all this personal data might help the app or website present offers or deals that interest you. But when you’re done with the app or website, the data you leave behind puts you at risk.
Data loss
Many apps and websites sell personal data to third parties, and many have a long history of data breaches. Don't get stung by a data theft.
Protect yourself
The easiest way to stop apps and sites using your personal data is to use Rightly Protect to send a deletion request. We'll connect you to as many companies as you need and request erasure of your personal data, in one go. And for free.
