1. How to Submit a Privacy Request

To submit a privacy request, use the contact email listed above and include enough detail for us to understand and evaluate your request. Helpful details include your name, the email address associated with the service, your relationship to Six Degrees, and the specific right or action you are requesting.

If you are asking us to review, delete, correct, or restrict a public profile or graph record, identify the specific record or content at issue so we can locate it efficiently.

2. Choices That May Be Available

Depending on your location and the law that applies, you may be able to exercise one or more of the following choices:

  • Request access to, or a copy of, certain personal information we maintain about you.
  • Request correction of inaccurate information.
  • Request deletion of certain information, subject to legal, security, operational, and public-record limitations.
  • Opt out of certain sales, sharing, targeted advertising, profiling, or other commercial disclosures of personal information where those rights apply.
  • Opt out of promotional communications while continuing to receive transactional, service, or legal notices.

3. Verification and Authorized Agents

We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling some requests. The verification steps we use may depend on the sensitivity of the request and the information involved.

If an authorized agent submits a request on your behalf, we may require proof of authority and may still contact you directly to verify the request.

4. Public Graph and Recordkeeping Limits

Because Six Degrees is public by design and because some information may need to be retained for security, moderation, legal compliance, business records, or audit purposes, we may not be able to remove every reference immediately or completely in every circumstance.

We may also retain deidentified, aggregated, archival, backup, and legally required records after processing a request.

5. Minors and Sensitive Requests

If your request concerns information about a minor or information you believe was collected or disclosed without appropriate authorization, say so clearly in your request so we can route it for priority review.

If applicable law gives you additional state-specific rights, we will process requests in accordance with the law that applies to your situation.
