Opt Out Request
Last updated: January 1, 2026
Contact Kit respects your right to control how your business contact information is used. If you would like your business email, phone number, job title, or company association removed from Contact Kit's sourcing database, you can request removal at any time, free of charge. This page explains what opt-out covers, how to submit a request, and how long it takes us to complete.
Scope of the Opt-Out
An opt-out request removes your business contact record from our internal database and our sourcing pipelines. After processing, your information will not be included in any future Contact Kit list delivered to a customer, and our research team will not re-add it unless you later request reinstatement. Opt-out covers the specific contact details you provide (name, email address, phone number, company). If you work at multiple organizations or have multiple email addresses, list each one you want suppressed.
What We Cannot Control
Contact Kit cannot recall lists that have already been delivered to customers before your opt-out was processed. Customers who received lists containing your information are subject to their own privacy obligations (CAN-SPAM, GDPR, CCPA, CASL), which typically require them to honor unsubscribe requests sent directly to their outreach. We also cannot opt you out of third-party databases, social networks, or public sources such as company websites and SEC filings.
How to Submit a Request
Email privacy@contactkit.io with the subject line "Opt Out Request" and include:
- Your full name as it would appear on a contact record
- Your business email address (and any alternates you want removed)
- Your company name and job title
- Any direct-dial or mobile phone numbers you want suppressed
- Optional: the context in which you discovered Contact Kit had your information
If you prefer, you can also mail a written request to Contact Kit, Newark, Delaware. Email is faster and results in the same outcome.
Processing Timeline and Confirmation
We will process your request within 10 business days of receipt. Once your record is suppressed, you will receive a confirmation email from privacy@contactkit.io. If we are unable to match your submission to a record in our database, we will confirm that as well - and add your contact details to a permanent suppression list to block future sourcing.
Related Rights and Contact
If you are a California, Colorado, Virginia, Connecticut, or EU/UK resident, additional rights may apply under CCPA/CPRA, CPA, VCDPA, CTDPA, or GDPR - including the right to access, correct, or port your data. See our Privacy Policy for the full list. Questions? Email privacy@contactkit.io. We respond to every opt-out and privacy inquiry, typically within one business day.
