Now available for data brokers

Opt-out compliance in a file drop.

Optbox is end-to-end state opt-out compliance. Brokers drop in a file and get back a clean one, with everyone on California's DROP list removed and an audit trail for their records. Consumers opt out once and Optbox carries it to the brokers.

How it works

  1. In

    Opt-outs meet your data

    California's DROP opt-out list and other consumer requests on one side, your firm's records on the other.

  2. Optbox

    Parse, match, purge

    Every record is checked against the opt-out data. Anyone who qualifies for removal is taken out.

  3. Out

    Clean file, ready to use

    Download your cleaned data with a hashed list of every record removed, for your legal audit file.

For data brokers · Available now

One file in. One clean file out.

California's Delete Act requires registered data brokers to process deletion requests from the state's DROP platform at least every 45 days. With Optbox your reporting is a file drop and a file download. Nothing else to run.

  • manifest.jsonMetadata about the file and how it was processed.
  • report/A processing report for the run.

  • Automated processing

    Once a file is uploaded, processing runs on its own. You get notified when results are ready to download.

  • Live status

    Follow each file from received to ready: rows processed, matches found, and time remaining.

  • Errors you can see

    If a file can't finish, the dashboard shows the step it stopped at and what went wrong.

  • Built for audits

    Every run is logged and every removal itemized, so you can show a regulator exactly what was purged and when.

For consumers · Coming soon

One request instead of hundreds.

Hundreds of companies buy and sell personal information. Opting out of each one by hand takes hours, and records come back. Optbox will do the sending and the follow-up for you.

How we treat the data

Hashed audit trail

Removed records are listed by hashed ID, so your audit file doesn't become another copy of the personal data.

Used only for compliance

Files you upload are processed to remove opted-out records. That's all they're used for.

Never sold

Opt-out data is for opt-outs. It is never sold, rented or used for marketing.
