How to remove yourself from Crossix
Crossix is part of Veeva and sells health-marketing audiences to drug companies. Veeva's do-not-sell page lets any U.S. resident opt out of sale or sharing in its consumer advertising products: submit the request form and choose "Consumer" as your relationship to Veeva.
On average, Serus sends about 184 removal requests per person, 89% of them to data brokers, so expect Crossix to be one of many.

How to opt out of Crossix

Use the privacy request form for Veeva Crossix, linked from Veeva's do-not-sell-or-share page.
- 2
Choose Consumer as your relationship
Veeva's page tells you to select "Consumer" as your relationship to Veeva. Other choices send the request down a different path.

Submit, then check the Your Controls section
Veeva's privacy notice has a "Your Controls" section for other options, such as deletion and access.
Watch out for
- The opt-out covers sale or sharing in Veeva's consumer-based advertising products. It's not a promise to delete everything about you.
- Crossix describes its segments as built in a "privacy-safe, HIPAA-compliant way" for health marketers, and it doesn't publish a lookup where you can see what it holds on you.

Your rights
Veeva says it handles requests under the laws that apply where you live, and that it's registered as a data broker in California.
California: CCPA. If you live in California, the CCPA lets you ask a business to delete the personal information it holds about you and to stop selling or sharing it. Businesses generally have 45 days to respond.
California: the Delete Act. Data brokers that hold information on Californians must register with the state. California residents can use DROP, the state's Delete Request and Opt-out Platform, to send one deletion request to every registered broker at once.
Other US states. Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Texas, Oregon and a growing list of other states give residents a similar right to delete. Vermont, Texas and Oregon also make data brokers register with the state. Where no state law applies, the broker's own opt-out above still works for most people.
