How to Export PII Removal Status Reports for Your Organization Members
Optery for Business Administrators can generate a CSV export of the PII removal status for one or more organization members. The export is processed asynchronously and delivered via a secure, time-limited download link sent to your email.
Who Can Use This Feature
This feature is available to Administrators on Optery for Business accounts.
How to Generate an Export
Step 1: Log in to your Optery for Business account and go to Manage Members.
Step 2: Click Export Report in the table toolbar. An export configuration modal will open.
Step 3: Configure your export:
- Members: Select the members.
- Status filter: Filter by a specific removal status. Default is All.
- Group: Optionally filter by a member group.
Step 5: Click Generate Export. A confirmation message will appear indicating the export is being processed.
Step 6: Check your email. Once the file is ready, you will receive an email with a secure download link. The link expires 48 hours after it is generated.
What's Included in the Export
Each row represents one data broker profile for one member. If a member's removal status changed over time at a given data broker, multiple rows will appear for that combination — one per status change.
Column | Description |
|---|---|
Organization Member Name | Full name of the member |
Data Broker Name | Name of the data broker |
Data Broker Homepage URL | Homepage URL of the data broker |
PII Summary | General categories of personal data that data broker is known to collect |
Opt-Out Status | Removal status recorded. 1 line per removal status |
Status Updated At | Date the status was last updated (format: YYYY-MM-DD) |
Profile Link | Direct URL to the data broker listing where the member's data was detected. Available for profiles in Found status only. |
Screenshot URL | Expiring link to the exposure screenshot, if one is available. Expires 90 days after the export is generated. Empty if no screenshot exists for that profile. |
Opt-Out Status values
- Found: The member's data was detected at this data broker.
- Submitted: An opt-out request has been submitted.
- In Progress: The opt-out request is being processed.
- Removed: The profile has been removed, or was not found at this data broker.
Important Notes
- The export is processed asynchronously. The file is delivered by email only.
- The download link expires 48 hours after it is generated. After expiration, the link will no longer work. You can generate a new export at any time.
- Screenshot URLs in the export expire 90 days after the export is generated.
- The export does not aggregate data. Each row represents a single status event, allowing you to track status changes over time and calculate metrics across periods.
