About this app

Introducing Permission Slip Plus, a premium service that combines the power of automation with a team of human advocates to turbocharge your right to privacy.

Here’s what’s included in addition to powerful free features in the new Permission Slip Plus:

A Data Concierge Team Working for You: With Permission Slip Plus, you get access to a team of data experts working behind the scenes to protect your personal information. Here’s what they will do for you:

Complete Form-Fill Requests: Many companies require you to manually fill out time consuming forms to manage your data. Your PS+ Data Concierge team will take care of these on your behalf.

Advocate for Your Privacy Rights: Our Data Concierge team helps you take action. When companies aren’t responsive and your data rights aren’t being respected, a concierge will communicate directly with companies for you to help enforce your rights.

Data Broker Requests: Flip the switch on Plus, and send instant opt-out requests to 100+ data brokers, aka the companies that siphon your data and sell it without your knowledge or consent. We’ll also make sure you stay protected by consistently sending requests to newly available data brokers.

Bulk Requests: Effortlessly send bulk opt-out and data deletion requests to hundreds of companies you engage with online and offline. From Ticketmaster to Tesla, we’ve made it easy for you to take back your data en masse with just a few taps.


Permission Slip was created by Consumer Reports, an independent, nonprofit that works with consumers to create a fair and just marketplace. We advocate for laws and company practices that put consumers first.

Ratings and reviews

Never received the 6 digit code that was supposedly sent to my mobile number in order to complete set up. "Request another code" also does not work. I've been a supporter and subscriber of Consumer Reports for years, but this app is a big fail. Disappointed that they would release and tout an app that is not functional. C'mon CR you can do better than this! Hopefully they will work out the bugs, but will be deleting the app for now.

App is impossible to even add my name and phone. Customer service is totally useless. Instead of helping solve what should be a minor problem I keep getting emails (4 so far) from Tara (a bot or very limited human) to confirm the problem. If she would read any of my emails she'd know what the problem is. But all she does is reply asking me to confirm what the problem is instead of fixing the issue. Very close to uninstalling. An extremely frustrating experience.

I opened the app only to be greeted a page saying I need to agree to the countless page Privacy Policy. Kind of ridiculous that an app used to protect my privacy requires me to agree to more data collection. At least I assume that is what it says in the mile long agreement, but who knows, I certainly don't want to waste my time reading that thing. I am unistalling the app. I expected much better from Consumer Reports.
