Quick answer
Incogni provides a 15% discount on its annual subscription for automated removal of personal data from data broker websites.
Privacy service Incogni has launched a special offer for CNET readers: the annual Unlimited plan is now available at a 15% discount with the promo code CNETDEAL, reducing the price to $153 from the standard $180. Without the discount, the monthly payment would total $360 over a year.
Incogni automates the removal of personal data from over 420 data broker platforms. The service scans the internet for emails, phone numbers, and physical addresses, and can also remove information from an additional 2,000 sites upon user request. The Unlimited plan includes unlimited removal requests and phone support.
For families, the Family Unlimited plan is available: for $235 per year, it protects the data of up to five people. A budget-friendly Standard plan offers basic functionality for $82 per year but lacks advanced features.
Experts warn that data on broker sites is often marketed as anonymous but can be deanonymized, posing risks to users. Personal information may become accessible to fraudsters or unwanted parties. Incogni helps prevent such leaks by proactively addressing the issue.
