Common questions
- Is OpenAI covered by California's free deletion platform?
- The question does not apply. OpenAI is not a data broker in the sense the registry uses.
- Will my data come back?
- Possibly. Brokers rebuild from public records and from each other, and without a legal suppression obligation nothing prevents re-listing. Profiles commonly reappear within three to six months.
