Does PrivacyHawk work? Follow
Yes, it does work (but its level of efficacy all depends on your expectations).
PrivacyHawk is an app that advertises being able to help users control their personal online date by scanning for all data broker listings, removing private info from public databases, and flagging any apps that might overreach with their privacy permissions.
An especially useful app for anyone concerned about identity theft or digital privacy leaks, PrivacyHawk also automates the task of submitting opt-out requests and provides updates as your personal information is removed. While it won’t go as far as erasing your online presence, the app does help to streamline the privacy-cleanup process (something many of us wish to avoid the tedious task of doing manually).
Since no one app can entirely wipe out your digital footprint, a great approach is to augment tools like PrivacyHawk with a private communication app like Hushed, which provides a secondary number to keep you anonymous online.
