Our editorial assessment from public sources as of August 4, 2026. Each dimension is scored 1 to 4, higher means more exposure, and the overall gauge is their average, unless a confirmed breach holds it higher. It is an opinion, not a finding about the company's conduct or legal compliance. Dimensions marked "Editorial estimate" are estimated from the kind of service offered rather than observed on this site. How we score
What each dimension means
- Data published: how much and how sensitive the personal data they put out.
- Re-listing frequency: how quickly you reappear after opting out.
- Complaint record: the volume and pattern of complaints across BBB, Trustpilot, and Sitejabber. No listing, or a listing with no reviews, counts against the broker.
- Opt-out friction: how hard the removal process is to complete.
- Operator opacity: how hidden the operating company and its principals are.
- Prior data incidents: history of breaches or leaks of the data they hold.

Background
Background
TowerData was a B2B email-intelligence company, not a consumer people-search site. It sold email validation, identity matching, and profile enrichment to marketers, and it never ran a public lookup product. The brand is gone now, but the data business it built is still running under a different name.

- Legacy explainer
The company's own history page traces the line from TowerData's 2001 launch through its acquisitions of Rapleaf and Xverify, the 2021 FreshAddress merger, and the AtData rebrand. Experian announced on February 23, 2026 that it had acquired AtData, and the release describes adding more than 10 billion email addresses to Experian's data assets after a 15-year partnership. Our AtData profile carries the full timeline with its sourcing.
What matters for a removal request is simpler. The towerdata.com domain returns a clean 301 to atdata.com with no content, no policy, and no opt-out flow of its own, and the current California data-broker registry lists the business under AtData, LLC with no TowerData entry at all. If a third-party opt-out list still tells you to contact TowerData, the request needs to go to AtData.
Why this page exists. Older removal guides and broker lists still carry the TowerData name, which sends people looking for an opt-out that no longer exists on its own. The path is AtData's, and it's linked below.

Two channels, two jobs. The InstantData form stops the sale and sharing of your data, while deletion runs through the separate rights form or privacy@atdata.com. If you want your record gone rather than just suppressed, use the second one.

Related sites
AtData absorbed the brands below, and the domains that still resolve mostly point back at atdata.com. Removals for all of them run through AtData's one opt-out.
FreshAddress redirects too. freshaddress.com 301s to atdata.com the same way towerdata.com does, verified August 2026. Rapleaf's domain no longer resolves at all.
Reputation
Trust signals
TowerData sold to businesses rather than consumers, so it never accumulated the review trail a people-search brand does. We found no listing for either name on the BBB, and the one review page that does exist carries nothing.
Litigation
Litigation history
We found no litigation, enforcement action, or breach disclosure attached to the TowerData name.
We haven't found an FTC enforcement action, state Attorney General action, or class action against TowerData or AtData as of the last-updated date below, and neither name appears in the Have I Been Pwned breach index. Court-record and FTC search tools blocked automated access on the last check, so this rests on partial coverage rather than an exhaustive sweep. The AtData profile records the separate 2010 FTC matter involving Rapleaf, which predates TowerData's acquisition of that company.
FAQ
Q & A
Is TowerData still a data broker?
Not under that name. TowerData merged with FreshAddress in 2021 and rebranded as AtData, and the current California data-broker registry lists the business as AtData, LLC with no TowerData entry. The underlying email-data business is still operating, and Experian acquired AtData in February 2026.
Who owns TowerData now?
AtData, LLC, which Experian acquired in February 2026. AtData is headquartered at 770 Legacy Place in Dedham, Massachusetts.
How do I remove my information from TowerData?
Use AtData's opt-out at instantdata.atdata.com/optout, which covers the sale and sharing of your data. For actual deletion, use the rights form at atdata.com/ccpa-form or email privacy@atdata.com. Our AtData removal guide walks through both.
Does towerdata.com still work?
It resolves, but it doesn't serve anything. As of August 2026 the domain returns a 301 redirect to atdata.com, so anyone visiting it lands on the AtData homepage. There's no separate TowerData site, policy, or opt-out form behind it.
Is TowerData covered by FCRA?
AtData says it isn't. Its terms state that it isn't a consumer reporting agency and that its services and reports aren't consumer reports, and they prohibit customers from using the data for credit, employment, tenancy, or licensing decisions.
