The Federal Trade Commission has finalized an order prohibiting data broker X-Mode and its successor Outlogic from sharing or selling any sensitive location data to settle allegations that the company sold precise location data that could be used to track people\u2019s visits to sensitive locations such as medical and reproductive health clinics and places of worship.<\/p>\n
In a complaint<\/a> first announced in January 2024<\/a>, the FTC charged that X-Mode\/Outlogic failed until May 2023 to remove sensitive locations from the raw location data it sold and did not implement reasonable or appropriate safeguards against downstream use of the precise location data it sold, putting consumers\u2019 sensitive personal information at risk.<\/p>\n
