To remove your personal data quickly and securely, several platforms require written privacy authorization. Hush uses a Limited Power of Attorney (LPOA)—built into our Terms of Use—to meet those requirements and act on your behalf.
1. What the Privacy Authorization Allows Us to Do
Submit opt-in/opt-out requests to data brokers and people-search sites
Communicate with third parties to process removals
Take action based on search results, including filing takedown requests
This allows us to move efficiently when brokers require formal proof of representation.
2. How Long It Lasts & How You Stay in Control
The Privacy Authorization remains active while your membership is active.
It automatically ends when your membership ends.
You can remove it anytime by emailing hello@gohush.com—we’ll take care of it promptly.
3. What You’ll See
We notify you of meaningful findings and actions. The Privacy Authorization (LPOA) does not require detailed reporting of every request, allowing us to move quickly while keeping you informed of the updates that matter most.
4. Security You Can Trust
We maintain strict internal controls to ensure all actions taken under the Privacy Authorization are authorized and secure. Additional details are available in our Trust Center.
5. Why This Matters Now
A group of large data brokers have recently slowed or complicated removals due to evolving privacy laws. While most remain cooperative, some now require additional verification or extended processing timelines.
To protect your privacy without delay, Hush has:
Expanded our manual-processing team
Engaged legal and regulatory channels
Offered LPOA support where signatures are required
Strengthened our AI to adapt to new broker restrictions
Our Commitment
Your safety is our priority. The Privacy Authorization empowers Hush to act quickly, navigate new broker requirements, and remove your personal information as efficiently as possible.
If you have questions or need support, our team is always available at hello@gohush.com.
