Best for a phone app that asks data brokers to remove you
PrivacyHawk is a phone app that finds where your data is held and asks brokers and companies to remove it, and it unsubscribes you from email lists. Premium is $74.99 a year, but monthly billing is $19.99. There is no free plan or trial, and it runs only on iPhone and Android.
Who PrivacyHawk is for

- Watch out: identity theft cover and credit alerts are Platinum, in US terms
- Watch out: the Premium list and the FAQ disagree on where ID theft protection sits

Keep PrivacyHawk, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace PrivacyHawk you would be making opt-out requests to hundreds of data brokers, sent again whenever they list you again. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 7 of the 15 other data removal services grade higher. It costs $74.99 a year.
What you could not
- Opt-out requests to hundreds of data brokers, sent again whenever they list you again.
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. PrivacyHawk’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
