The modern internet is fueled by unchecked corporate surveillance. Every day, a shadow industry of data brokers harvests, aggregates, and monetizes your personal information without your explicit consent. We believe this mass commodification of consumer data is a direct threat to civil liberties and personal safety.
OptOutScout was founded to hold the data broker industry accountable. We build accessible, privacy-respecting tools designed to shift the balance of power away from corporations and put the right of consent back into the hands of the individual.
Digital privacy is not a luxury commodity; it is a fundamental human right. We believe that exercising your right to opt out should not require a law degree, endless free time, or exorbitant fees.
We reject the industry standard of hoarding consumer data. OptOutScout operates on strict data minimization principles, processing only the exact information legally required to advocate on your behalf.
Data brokers thrive on opacity and consumer friction. By operating as your legally designated Authorized Agent, we bypass their hurdles and legally compel compliance from an industry that refuses to police itself.
We are a proud local team fighting a national battle. While our tools defend consumers across the United States, our grassroots advocacy starts right here in the Gem State. We are deeply committed to advancing data justice for Idahoans.
Beyond our consumer tools, OptOutScout actively supports state-level legislation in the 2026 cycle to protect digital rights, including:
The Reproductive Freedom and Privacy Act: We advocate for the strict codification of private health decisions, shielding sensitive medical data from digital tracking and corporate surveillance.
Biometric Identifier Protections (HB 744): We strongly support legislation that places hard boundaries on how businesses can capture, store, and profit from your unique biometric data.
