What BDO GCI, LLC knows about you, and why removal matters
BDO GCI, LLC is required to register annually with the California Privacy Protection Agency under the state's data broker law (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.99.80). Registration is a legal acknowledgment that the company knowingly collects and sells or licenses personal information about California residents with whom it has no direct relationship. That same status is what gives you clear standing to demand deletion: a registered broker cannot claim it has no record of you simply because you have never been its customer.
According to its own 2024 registry filing, BDO GCI, LLC collects minors’ personal information, government-issued identification numbers, citizenship / immigration status, union membership status, and names, birth dates, emails, phone numbers, ad IDs. 4 of these categories are classed as sensitive personal information under California law, which strengthens your case for both deletion and a limit on further sale or sharing.
BDO GCI, LLC also disclosed that, in 2024, it shared or sold consumer data to other state governments. Every downstream recipient is another copy of your information outside your control, which is the practical reason to remove yourself at the source rather than chasing each buyer individually. Deleting your record at BDO GCI, LLC cuts off the supply before it propagates further.
BDO GCI, LLC did not report a volume of completed deletion requests for 2024, so there is no published track record to gauge its responsiveness. That makes a clearly worded, statute-citing request all the more important: cite Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.105 explicitly, keep a dated copy, and watch the 45-day clock so you have grounds to escalate to the California Privacy Protection Agency if the deadline passes in silence.
The fastest route is BDO GCI, LLC's dedicated privacy-request portal, where you can submit a deletion request directly. If the form is slow, broken, or asks for more identification than you are comfortable providing, you can fall back to a written request to privacy@bdo-gci.com citing your CCPA deletion right. OfflistMe can pre-fill that email for you so the legal citation and required details are already in place: you review it and send it from your own inbox.
BDO GCI, LLC's own registry note
BDO’s Global Corporate Intelligence services were previously registered as part of BDO USA, P.C., which is no longer a data broker under California law. BDO GCI, LLC was formed in January 2025, and did not receive any data subject requests in 2024. For the period beginning on January 1, 2024, and ending on December 31, 2024, BDO has compiled the following statistics regarding individual requests to know, access, delete, and opt out of sale, sharing and/or targeted advertising: BDO received 48,984 total requests, complied with 42,936 of these requests in whole or in part, denied 6,048 requests and responded to these requests with a median response timeline of 0 days and a mean of 1 day. Of these requests, 2 deletion requests involved data that BDO USA did not delete pursuant to exceptions under Sections 1798.145 or 1798.146 of the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018. For this request, BDO USA relied on the exceptions covering our ability to “comply with federal, state, or local laws,” “comply with a civil, criminal, or regulatory inquiry, investigation, subpoena, or summons by federal, state, or local authorities,” and “exercise or defend legal claims.” Please note that the number of “Denied” requests includes abandoned requests by the consumer and failed identity verification attempts. In particular, BDO has received large numbers of deletion requests from authorized agents that have been nonresponsive to our attempts to process these requests. Additionally, please note that these metrics include requests we received at the end of 2024 and responded to in 2025.
