How Data Brokers Build Profiles

Profile construction depends on entity resolution: matching names, addresses, devices, and household associations across multiple datasets.

Investigative Breakdown

Brokers score matches using historical addresses, co-resident relationships, contact records, and transactional metadata. The final profile may include inferred links even when some fields are stale.

Exposure Implications

This profile logic can preserve outdated information for long periods and can relink records after partial removals.

Exposure mapping should start with a structured scan, followed by targeted removals and periodic verification. Hardline documents plan details on Pricing.
