About PrivacyFix

Free tools and guides to take back your online privacy.

Our Mission

Over 750 data brokers collect and sell your personal information—name, address, phone, email, income estimates, family members, and more. They make opting out deliberately painful, knowing most people will give up.

Paid services like DeleteMe and Incogni will handle opt-outs for you, but they cost $100-200 per year. That's a real barrier for many people.

PrivacyFix exists to make privacy protection accessible to everyone. We provide free tools and step-by-step guides so you can take back control of your personal data without paying subscription fees.

What We Offer

Free Tools

  • Privacy Audit: A questionnaire that creates a personalized action plan based on your risk level
  • Opt-Out Tracker: Track your progress across data brokers with 45-day follow-up reminders
  • State Rights Lookup: Find out exactly what privacy rights you have where you live

Comprehensive Guides

  • Step-by-step opt-out instructions for major data brokers
  • State-by-state privacy law explainers
  • California DROP portal tutorials
  • Honest comparisons of paid vs DIY approaches

Our Approach

✓ Honest

We're upfront that DIY takes time. If it's not right for you, we'll point you to reputable paid services.

How We Built This

Every tool on PrivacyFix runs entirely in your browser — your personal data never touches our servers. The Privacy Audit generates a personalized action plan by scoring your answers locally. Opt-out guides are maintained manually by tracking changes to data broker removal processes, which shift frequently as brokers update their interfaces.

We research each data broker's opt-out workflow firsthand and document the exact steps required. When brokers change their processes, we update the guides. Our goal is to provide the same protection that paid services offer, without the subscription fee barrier.
