FAQ

What are data brokers?

Data brokers are companies that collect, analyze, and sell personal information about individuals to other companies, often without their knowledge or consent.

How does this service source data brokers?

Naisho uses the data broker list from the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) as well as DataBrokersWatch.org.

How can I trust this service?

Naisho is completely open-source. The site you are using right now is operated by the same code you can find on our GitHub repository.

Can I run this service myself? Can I self-host this?

Yes and yes! You can find the source code and instructions on running the app locally or self-hosting on GitHub.

The email template has placeholders for personal information. What if I don't want to give that out?

The email template includes language to explicitly prohibit the collection of included personal information, but you are free to edit the email as you see fit.

What if I don't get a response from a data broker?

Unfortunately, it's up to the data broker to comply with your request. If you don't hear back, you can follow up with them directly or file a complaint with your region's relevant government body.

I want to help. How can I contribute?

Naisho is open-source and contributions are welcome. You can find the source code and join the discussion on GitHub.
