To opt out of Persistent.id, use the privacy contact in its official notice: privacy@persistent.id. Explain whether you want to stop sale/sharing or targeted advertising, request deletion, or exercise another privacy choice.

Its policy also links to an opt-out page, but our September 28, 2026 browser check found no usable form on that page.

This guide covers Command Precision Inc., doing business as Persistent.id.

We reviewed its public policy and privacy-options page without sending identifiers or submitting a consumer request. A published request route is not evidence of completed deletion.

Which Persistent.id data are you addressing?

Persistent.id's notice describes website, account and advertising-related information. Depending on the activity, this can include contact details, device information, IP addresses, cookies and email or hashed-email identifiers. The notice also describes third-party sources and identity-resolution uses.

An opt out therefore needs a meaningful scope. Asking to stop advertising use of a record differs from cancelling a customer account or turning off promotional emails. Tell the privacy team which relationship and identifier category concern you.

Read theofficial Persistent.id privacy notice before submitting. If you are working through several providers, theopt-out guide hub keeps their separate request routes in one place.

A request to another identity-data company will not automatically reach Persistent.id.

Choose a request that matches your goal

GoalRoute described by the noticeImportant boundary
Stop sale/sharing or targeted advertisingPrivacy request or supported browser choicesIdentify the processing and records concerned
Delete personal informationPrivacy request with relevant matching detailsVerification and retention exceptions can apply
Access or correct informationPrivacy request describing the question or errorAccess can require stronger identity checks
Close an accountContact the company or use available account controlsAccount closure may leave permitted retained records
Change website advertising preferencesCookie controls or Global Privacy ControlA browser choice is not proof of all-record deletion

The policy lists rights that depend on residence and circumstances. Treat its list as the company's explanation of available processes, not a guarantee that every action applies identically to every reader.

For identity-resolution background, the LiveRamp opt-out guide illustrates why email identifiers and browser preferences may require different handling. Use Persistent.id's own response to determine how its process applies to your record.

How do you make a Persistent.id request?

1. Check the official privacy-options page

The notice directs readers to Persistent.id's opt-out page. During our check, the page displayed sensitive-information and sale/sharing choices, but both linked back to the same page. We found no input fields or usable submission form in that view.

If the provider updates this page, review any new controls before using them. Until a form actually accepts a request and gives a result, loading the page alone should not be recorded as an opt out. The policy's email route remains an actionable alternative.

2. Write to the policy-listed privacy address

Email privacy@persistent.id with a clear subject such as “Privacy request: sale/sharing opt out.” State your goal in the first sentence. Add deletion as a separate requested action if you want the company to consider removing information it holds.

Describe the relevant email address, account or device-related concern. You can initially ask which identifiers the company needs to locate advertising data. Do not send every address, phone number and device identifier you have merely because the policy mentions multiple data categories.

A concise request might say: Please record my opt out of sale/sharing and targeted advertising for the information associated with the identifier below. Please explain the matching details you need, the scope of the preference and whether I should submit a separate deletion request.

3. Supply matching information carefully

An email address used only for replies may differ from the address connected with the data concerned. Make that distinction explicit. If the concern involves an old address, explain the connection without supplying passwords or inbox access.

Avoid guessing a device or advertising identifier. A hardware serial number, an IP address and a mobile advertising ID are different things. Ask for the expected format if the company requests one. The Optable guide covers another process where matching details determine which brokered data can be addressed.

4. Keep the response and complete relevant verification

Persistent.id says it verifies identity or authority using information it already maintains and may request more information when that is insufficient. Its notice says verification data is used for that purpose. An authorized agent may need written, signed permission and additional checks.

Check the origin of any follow-up before responding. Ask why unfamiliar sensitive details are required and whether a secure route or less intrusive alternative is available. We did not submit a request, so we cannot report the exact confirmation email or verification sequence you will receive.

How long should you expect to wait?

The policy says requests will be considered and acted on under applicable data-protection laws. It does not establish one current completion deadline covering all readers and request types. Ask for an expected response date when you submit and retain any acknowledgement.

Historical request metrics in a policy are not a promise about your case. Matching problems, the type of action requested and permitted retention can affect the answer. Do not treat an older reported median as a countdown to complete deletion.

If you have no response by the date the company gives you, reply in the same thread. Include the original request date and ask whether verification or clarification is still needed. Where a request is denied, the notice describes an appeal through the same privacy email under applicable state laws.

Does Global Privacy Control replace an email?

Persistent.id's notice says it recognizes Global Privacy Control and treats a detected signal as an opt out of sale/sharing for targeted advertising under applicable state laws. It also describes cookie preferences as another advertising-control route.

That stated support is useful, but it does not show that every historical record or account has been deleted. If your objective is a provider-level deletion request or an explanation of stored information, ask for that action directly.

Leave useful privacy protections enabled. You do not need to turn tracking on to follow this guide. If a browser or device changes, check which choices still apply and ask the provider how to handle identifiers that are no longer available.

What can remain or reappear?

The notice allows some information to be retained for purposes such as fraud prevention, troubleshooting, investigations and legal requirements after account termination. Ask the company to identify the categories and purpose of any retention relevant to your request.

Separate companies can also continue holding their own source records. New identifiers or a later interaction may raise a different matching question. The OnSpot Data guide covers a separate advertising-data request; it should be tracked as a distinct task.

Use the general data-broker removal guide to organize that wider work. For public exposure elsewhere, run a free data broker scan. Public search results cannot verify the contents of Persistent.id's private advertising systems or certify that an email request was processed.

Keep a useful request record

  • Save the request date, destination and action you requested.
  • Note which identifier category you supplied, keeping its actual value private.
  • Retain any verification instructions and your response date.
  • Record whether the answer concerns opt out, deletion, account closure or retained data.
  • Preserve the case reference for a later matching problem or appeal.

Frequently asked questions

Is visiting the opt-out page enough?

No. Our inspection found privacy-choice text without a usable form. Use the policy-listed email if the page does not provide an actionable control, and retain the response.

Must I create a customer account?

The notice offers an email request route. It does not require you to buy a service or create an account merely to contact the privacy team.

Can a hashed email identify my data?

The notice describes hashed-email processing, but that does not establish the input format needed for your request. Ask the company which identifier it accepts rather than generating or guessing one.

Will this stop every advertisement?

No. Other companies and contextual advertising can still deliver ads. A change in ad content is not reliable proof that a particular provider deleted a record.

Should an agent submit without my involvement?

The policy allows authority and identity checks for agent requests. An agent's involvement does not remove the need for your permission or any appropriate verification.

Sources and inspection limits
