En marge de ma volonté d’effacer mes tweets après 48h, j’en ai profité pour faire une demande formelle que me permet la loi : obtenir l’intégralité des informations personnelles qu’ils connaissent sur moi.
Pour ceux qui veulent s’y essayer aussi il y a une procédure assez claire. Il suffit globalement de recopier les courriers pré-rédigés et suivre les étapes. Bon, j’ai dit claire mais pas simple. On voit bien la volonté de ne pas proposer quelque chose de simple : mail, fax (??), copie de carte d’identité (pourquoi ? ils ne la connaissent pas de toutes façons), reconfirmation par mail.
Toujours est-il que j’ai passé les étapes, voilà ce que j’ai reçu après 9 jours accompagné d’un zip de 2,6 Mo :

Vous noterez qu’ils s’autorisent à ne pas tout donner, parce que c’est difficile (?). Je vais faire suite pour avoir l’intégralité, la loi ne les autorise pas à sélectionner ce qu’ils retournent. Je suis entre autre très intéressé par les données de profiling qu’ils peuvent avoir (et sur lesquelles seront basées les pub) et sur les entreprises partenaires à qui ils diffusent leurs données.
