Yes, any U.S. resident can complete an online data request.
How long do requests take?
We’ll work as quickly as possible. If you live in California, we’re required to give you a data report within 45 days. It may take 90 days if we find we need more time - but we'll be sure to let you know.
Is there anything I should know about a "do not sell or share" request?
We may share limited information to create, deliver and measure advertisements for things you might like. We also share information in ways that may be considered a sale of personal information under some state laws, such as exchanging subscriber lists for marketing.
Unless you give us explicit permission, we don’t sell data that directly identifies you. We may share data attached to an automated number, like an advertising ID, with other AT&T companies. In California, Nevada, or Virginia this may be considered a sale or share of personal info.
