Data Privacy Deletion Request
Request that a company delete your personal data under CCPA, VCDPA, or your state's privacy law. Includes the correct statute citation for your state and the company's 45-day response deadline.
Statute of Limitations Warning
Legal deadlines apply to your claim. You lose your right to act if you wait too long. Send notice as soon as possible.
Why this letter works:
- Cites the exact law: Automatically applies the correct state and federal statutes to your situation.
- Sets a firm deadline: Legally compels a response within the required statutory timeframe.
- Creates a paper trail: Designed to serve as Exhibit A if you need to escalate to an agency or court.

Your letter includes a firm deadline. Do not engage in informal text messages during this time.
If they miss the deadline, you have completed the required out-of-court steps. Hand this complete paper trail to a local attorney for litigation.
Your Situation
Tell us about the company and your relationship so we can tailor your deletion request.
This determines which state privacy law applies. If your state does not have a comprehensive data privacy law, you can still send this request — many companies honor deletion requests regardless of state law, especially if they operate in California.
The name of the company you are requesting to delete your data.
The company's privacy department email, URL, or mailing address. Check their privacy policy — most companies list a specific contact for data rights requests.
This helps frame the request appropriately. Data brokers collect information without a direct customer relationship.
If you have an account number, username, or customer ID with this company, include it to help them locate your records.

Is this legal advice?
This tool creates a data deletion request letter for self-help purposes. It is not legal advice and does not replace consultation with a licensed attorney. Whether you have a legally enforceable right to deletion depends on your state's laws and on whether the company meets the thresholds that trigger those laws (such as revenue, data volume, or business activities). Many companies honor deletion requests regardless of legal obligation, but compliance is not guaranteed. State privacy laws contain exceptions that may allow companies to retain certain data (for example, to complete a transaction, comply with a legal obligation, detect fraud, or exercise free speech). If a company refuses your request and you believe the refusal is unlawful, consult a privacy attorney or file a complaint with your state Attorney General.
What if I need to change something afterwards?
Tell us and we will either adjust the letter and send you the updated version at no cost, or refund you in full — your choice. If we can’t deliver what you paid for, the refund is automatic. Full terms are on our promise page.
Do I have to pay to know if I have a case?
No. The rights encyclopedia on this site is free and cites the same primary sources the letter does. Read the relevant guide first — plenty of situations are resolved by a phone call to a free statutory body, and where one exists we say so.
