| October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and I’m partnering with the fine folks at Incogni, my online privacy secret weapon. Incogni finds your info on greedy data broker and people-search sites and requests removal on your behalf. More on that below. First, a quick tip for a more secure digital life AdChoices is a program from the Digital Advertising Alliance, a large group of advertising and marketing companies. They have a tool called WebChoices, which lets you opt out of third-party cookies from one spot. - Go to https://optout.aboutads.info. WebChoices will scan your browser settings and computer to find out whether first-party and third-party cookies are enabled, along with a list of companies creating targeted ads for you.
- You’ll see an option to Opt Out Of All under the list. Click that.
That’s the tip of the iceberg. Don’t stop there! So much of your personal information is floating around the web, and anyone who knows where to search can find it. When you sign up for Incogni, they remove it all for you. Spend a few minutes entering in a few details and they’ll take care of the rest. Since I signed up, I get zero spam calls and texts. Seriously, it’s amazing. I have a special deal just for you. Right now, get 60% off an annual subscription using code KIM60. You can’t beat that. |
