You want to see exactly where you are exposed (with screenshots) before paying, then have removals automated monthly for a few dollars a month.
The free route
Compliance Desk does not scan for your exposure or remove listings. Its free request builder drafts the privacy request you send to any one company yourself and tracks the deadline; the platform guides show where to report. For a business, the Privacy Request Desk receives those requests free.
- Free request builders: For the person sending the request: TAKE IT DOWN Act removal, DMCA notice, privacy request and do-not-call request drafted in two minutes, sent by you, with the platform's deadline tracked.
- 44 platform removal guides: Per-platform paths for reporting intimate images, impersonation and stolen content.
- Privacy Request Desk: CCPA/CPRA-style access, deletion, correction and opt-out requests with a 45-day clock and a 24-month record.
Pro is not billable yet. Pro (email intake, removal verification, printable compliance record, no branding) is priced at $29/month per site on the site but is not billable yet: no payment link is live, and every desk is free during launch and for its first year.
Our limits, stated plainly: Compliance Desk does not scan the web for copies of your content, does not send notices on your behalf, does not act as anyone's authorized agent with data brokers, and does not provide a cookie consent banner or cookie scanner. It hosts the receiving side of a request process and drafts the sending side for you to send yourself. Software and templates, not legal advice.
Disclosure: Agent Exchange publishes a competing product: Compliance Desk, whose hosted request desks, generators, templates and request builders are free; its Pro tier is not billable yet. Read the vendor's own pages before deciding; prices change.
