Leidos Digital Solutions Opt Out: IQ Privacy Requests

To request a Leidos Digital Solutions opt-out or deletion, use the Privacy Rights Request Form linked from the Leidos IQ privacy statement. The statement also publishes IQDataRequest@leidos.com.

Identify the IQ or Digital Solutions relationship so the request reaches the right records. This process does not promise to erase a government office's constituent records or every copy of voter data held elsewhere.

Which Leidos records does this guide cover?

Leidos Digital Solutions (DSI) is a Leidos subsidiary. Its IQ privacy statement says it generally applies to the Intranet Quorum solution at leidosiq.com.

DSI provides services to current and former elected officials and government offices. It processes customer data at those customers' direction under their contracts.

That creates an important routing question: is your request about information DSI uses for its own website or business, or information it processes for an office? Describe the relationship rather than treating every record in a software system as the vendor's independent marketing database. The data broker removal guide explains why the organization controlling a record matters.

Step 1: Follow the form from the IQ statement

Open the official privacy statement and find its Privacy Rights Request Form link. It leads to a Leidos-branded OneTrust form. Starting from that source helps distinguish the correct portal from unrelated companies with similar names or another Leidos business unit's process.

The linked request form says requests must be validated before further action. Our November 14, 2026 inspection reached the empty form and its field descriptions. No personal details, verification documents or request were submitted.

The statement also links a California notice, but that linked page returned 404 during this review. The general statement and linked request form remained accessible. This guide therefore does not derive California-specific processing promises from the unavailable page.

Step 2: Describe the data subject and your role

The form asks about the person's relationship with Leidos/Digital Solutions. Visible choices include customer, web visitor, employee, former employee, applicant, supplier, independent contractor and investor. It separately asks whether you are submitting for yourself or on behalf of someone else.

Select the accurate relationship and role. A person writing to a government office should not claim to be an employee just because the same corporate form handles employee requests. If none of the choices clearly describes the data involved, ask the privacy contact which route to use.

The form asks for a correspondence email and data-subject details. Visible prompts include first, middle and last name, possible other names, the email previously provided to Leidos, possible other emails and country of residence. Its middle-name instruction says to enter NMN if there is no middle name. Follow the live labels if they change.

Step 3: Use dedicated fields and keep the request narrow

Enter identifying information in its designated fields. The Additional Details box explicitly says not to enter personal data there, and suggests N/A if no extra explanation is needed. Use that box for a short description of the product, relationship and request type, not an identity-document dump.

For example, describe that the request concerns an IQ website interaction and asks about deletion and any applicable sale or targeted-advertising opt-out. If it concerns a constituent communication, identify the relevant office at a general level and ask who controls the record. Avoid copying the private contents of that communication into a general-purpose form.

• Review fields marked required on the live form.
• Keep a copy of your request wording and submission date.
• Complete any anti-spam check yourself when making your request.
• Save a case number or acknowledgement if the portal provides one.

Use the opt-out directory for a separate company's workflow only when you have identified that company as another holder. The Leidos form does not send a universal opt-out across the directory.

Verification, email alternatives and timing

The general statement publishes IQDataRequest@leidos.com for questions and complaints, and for certain state-specific rights requests. It explicitly describes email or the form for Texas requests and the email for Nevada covered-information opt-outs. If the form fails, use the published email to explain the problem and ask how your request should be handled.

DSI says additional information may be needed to verify identity. The form also warns that requests must be validated. Neither source establishes that every person must upload the same identity document or follow a fixed email-click sequence. Wait for the actual instructions, verify the sender, and disclose only what is needed through an appropriate channel.

The statement promises response within applicable legal time limits for the specified requests, without a single universal completion period. Ask for the applicable timeframe and the status of any verification. A portal acknowledgement is not confirmation that a record was deleted.

Voter information and government records need separate care

The IQ statement identifies L2 as a source of purchased voter data and publishes privacy@L2political.com in its Vermont discussion. It explains that data is purchased again when customers buy it, so upstream removal affects later purchases. This is a provider-specific explanation, not proof that contacting DSI removes every existing voter-data copy.

If Aristotle is another identified holder, the Aristotle opt-out guide covers its separate political and consumer-data workflow. That request does not replace the Leidos or upstream-source request.

Official voter files, third-party voter products and a public people-search page are different records. For the separate public site, the VoterRecords opt-out guide explains its own removal path. Do not confuse that site with DSI's vendor or a government registration authority.

A government office may need to retain correspondence or other records under applicable obligations. Ask the controller what can be deleted or restricted and which exceptions apply. This guide does not advise altering voter registration or deleting official records to reduce marketing exposure.

Follow up on the actual outcome

Ask whether the response covers DSI's own data, a referral to a customer, an advertising choice or a marketing preference. If an exception prevents deletion, request a plain explanation of the retained information and its purpose. Keep that response instead of labeling the case a completed removal without evidence.

New interactions, later purchases from an upstream source or other independent holders can create additional exposure. The opt-out guide hub helps organize those separate tasks. Rechecking a public listing cannot verify private constituent-management systems.

A privacy scan is useful for supported public sources, with that limit in mind. It is not an audit of IQ, a government office's records, or the Leidos request portal's internal status.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Leidos form cover every Leidos business?

The form is corporate-branded and linked by IQ. Identify Digital Solutions and the relevant interaction so the company can route it correctly; do not assume every product has the same data practices.

Will unsubscribing end necessary service emails?

The statement says service-related communications may continue after marketing opt-out. Request handling and account administration can remain separate from promotional messages.

Should I upload a passport in Additional Details?

No. The inspected box says not to enter personal data. Ask for an appropriate verification route if the company later explains that supporting evidence is needed.

Is a broken California notice proof that requests are unavailable?

No. During this review the linked notice returned 404, while the general statement, privacy email and request form remained accessible. Keep the source limitation separate from the working intake.

Sources and review scope

Checked November 14, 2026: the June 2026 IQ privacy statement and the linked Leidos Privacy Rights Request Form. The California notice was unavailable. No submission, mailbox delivery, deletion result or processing-time test was performed. Rights and retention depend on the record, controller and applicable law; this is not a legal opinion.
