CRIF GmbH: data broker profile and opt-out route
This record explains how to contact CRIF GmbH, what the catalog currently records about its request workflow, what information may be needed to match a record, and what evidence to keep. It is a source-backed routing reference—not proof that CRIF GmbH accepted, processed, or completed a request.
Quick answer
To request removal from CRIF GmbH, first verify the current request route because the latest read-only page observation is ambiguous page observed; submission route not confirmed using datenschutz.de@crif.com. The catalog currently records Email as the request method, an estimated processing time of 30 days, and latest evidence dated 2026-08-13.

How to use this CRIF GmbH opt-out record

What this record is associated with
The catalog and matched registry evidence associate this provider with the following data domains:
- german data broker
- credit/risk identity
- address data
- marketing segments
These labels describe documented business or registry context. They do not prove that a particular person has a profile or that every listed domain uses the same request route.
Registry-declared data and regulatory signals
Data signals
Not recorded in matched registry rows.
Published sharing context
No positive sharing flag recorded.
Regulated contexts
No positive regulated-context flag recorded.
These are provider or registry declarations where available. They describe collection or business context; they do not prove that a particular person appears in the database or that removal will affect every downstream recipient.
Identity and verification boundary
Provider-specific expectation: CRIF’s current self-disclosure form requires current address data and an identity document; the online form also asks for name and date of birth.
Government-ID expectation: required_for_self_disclosure_and_identity_matching
Do not attach a government ID or other sensitive document unless the provider's current instructions require it for the request you are making. Redact unnecessary fields where the provider allows it.
Legal entity and registry context
No matched government-registry profile is recorded for this catalog entry yet. Treat the provider name and route as source-backed catalog data, not as a confirmed legal-entity relationship.
Evidence, freshness, and limitations
Evidence grade: Ambiguous page observed; submission route not confirmed. Useful evidence: this record tracks 68/258 tracked fields across 93 evidence facts. Ambiguous page observed; submission route not confirmed (date not recorded). Next route recheck due 2026-09-27.
The source links below support the recorded route and workflow fields. A source page, HTTP response, registry row, or email address does not prove that a provider accepted a request, deleted data, or will not republish it.
