Telesign Corporation

What we know about this broker

Telesign Corporation provides phone intelligence and digital identity (PhoneID) services, classifying as risk_investigation rather than people_search. Registered as a CA data broker (CPPA registry). Opt-out form is at telesign.com/privacy-requests (OneTrust portal); alternate email is [email protected] and toll-free 1-800-850-3485. Telesign may require a redacted phone bill or send an SMS to verify the requesting number before processing — hence id_required: true. Authorized agents accepted with further documentation. The opt-out link was previously buried ~7,000 words deep in the privacy policy and hidden from search engines (per CalMatters 2026 investigation); it is now visible. Tier kept at 2 (broker_confirmed) because Telesign does not maintain public-facing consumer profiles that can be re-scanned. Geolocation data flagged as sensitive. Confirmed 2026-06-16 via telesign.com/privacy-notice and telesign.com/privacy-requests.
