> From: Glen Batchelor > MelissaDATA - Data Quality Suite On one hand I'm worried about a perception of "smack talking" some company here, but on the other hand I feel a need to convey my experience.
I have personally been affected by breach of privacy issues with MelissaDATA. They harvest and publish data that they get from any source, regardless of what they say in their privacy notices. Any data you provide to them is subject to being sold to their other customers, who then sell it to others. They do not purge personal data, even after many requests, though they say they do. So not only are they betraying confidence but they also being blatently deceptive. The complaints of one individual will not significantly affect purchase decisions for a company as prominent as this one. I'm just passing on my experience and leaving it to you to decide what to do with it.
