DeleteMe vs McAfee

DeleteMe must collect your full personal identity — name, address, date of birth, aliases, family members — to remove it from data brokers, and while it confirms it never sells that data, the primary policy is a deliberately informal TLDR that defers partner data sharing to a separate Cookie Policy, ignores Do Not Track signals, and includes a broad business transfer clause that could expose your data if the company is ever sold.

McAfee is a broad consumer security suite that necessarily collects significant data — including email content for AI scam detection, financial account login credentials for transaction monitoring, and SSN/credit card numbers for identity monitoring — and shares contact and commercial information with advertising partners; its CCPA transparency table is unusually specific and confirms browsing and network activity are not shared for advertising, the VPN explicitly avoids logging originating IPs or DNS queries, and CCPA request metrics are published, but the overall collection scope is extensive, retention is vague, and no security certifications are named in the main policy.
