Publicly Traded Consumer-Data Entities
SEC-reporting companies selected for consumer-data research relevance, indexed with CIK, SIC code, and a direct URL to the most recent 10-K. Request-route context is separate, provider-specific, and not a legal classification. Source data: SEC EDGAR (data.sec.gov). Dataset last refreshed 2026-10-10; page reviewed 2026-10-11.
Why public filings matter: SEC filings provide a public record of a company's reported business and required disclosures, including cybersecurity disclosures when applicable SEC rules require them. They can add context to consumer-data research, but they are not a complete privacy notice, proof of legal data-broker status, or a request outcome.

How this index is built
- Primary source: SEC EDGAR submissions API (
data.sec.gov/submissions/). This is the canonical public record for every company with registered securities. - Curation: Companies are included if their principal business, or a material reported segment, involves aggregating, selling, scoring, or monetizing consumer personal data. Evidence is the company's own SIC code, 10-K business description, or publicly stated registration as a data broker under a state statute.
- Refresh cadence: The ingest script respects SEC's 10-request/second ceiling with a 1-req/sec limit and caches responses to avoid unnecessary load. Rebuilt on a manual cadence when new 10-K filings are relevant.
- License: SEC filings are US federal government works in the public domain (17 USC § 105). The OfflistMe presentation layer is OfflistMe’s; every page links back to the primary filing on sec.gov.
Frequently asked questions
Which consumer-data entities are publicly traded?+
18 companies selected for OfflistMe's consumer-data research scope currently file with the SEC. The scope includes credit reporting, identity resolution, adtech, analytics, and related categories. Each company's SEC CIK and most recent 10-K are linked on its OfflistMe page; inclusion in this index is not a legal determination that the company is a data broker.
What can public-company filings add to consumer-data research?+
SEC filings are a public source for a company's reported business, material risks, and required disclosures, including cybersecurity disclosures when applicable SEC rules require them. They are investor filings, not a complete privacy notice, proof of data-broker status, or a substitute for a current request route.
Is Experian included as a U.S. SEC filer in this index?+
Experian plc is publicly traded, but primary-listed on the London Stock Exchange (EXPN.L) and is not included here as a U.S. SEC filer. Equifax (EFX) and TransUnion (TRU) are U.S.-listed credit-reporting companies in the current research snapshot.
Is Dun & Bradstreet still public?+
Dun & Bradstreet Holdings was taken private by Clearlake Capital on August 26, 2025 and no longer files with the SEC. The historical SEC record is no longer a current filing source; review the entity's current privacy notice and applicable law separately.
How do I review a request route for an indexed entity?+
SEC status does not create a special request route. Check the entity's current privacy notice, applicable jurisdiction, request type, verification rules, and exemptions. OfflistMe may provide a user-reviewed draft from recorded catalog information; the provider determines its route and response.
