WPF Announces Updated Consumer Opt-Out Resource
The World Privacy Forum is delighted to publish a new version of our Top Ten Opt Outs, a highly popular consumer resource online. We have continually published this guide for over xxx years. It has changed over time, as social media opt outs didn't exist when we first wrote the guide.
The guide also contains crucially important financial opt outs for consumers. "While many people have heard about how to adjust their Facebook settings, many fewer have heard that they can opt out of pre-screened offers of credit and other financial opt outs," said Pam Dixon. "Some of these are quite important over the long term."
The new guide is available at https://www.worldprivacyforum.org/2013/08/consumer-tips-top-ten-opt-outs/
