Using Cloaked Automations

Cloaked Automations help you take action on your privacy and security across the internet — all from one place.

When you sign up for Cloaked, we immediately begin scanning hundreds of data broker sites to identify where your personal information may be exposed. That process starts right away and can take several days to fully complete.

Cloaked’s Data Removal service focuses on submitting removal requests to those public data brokers.

Automations extend that protection by helping you take additional actions that fall outside traditional broker removals.

Automations allow Cloaked to complete privacy and security actions on your behalf, without requiring you to manually navigate multiple websites or account settings.

With Automations, you can:

These actions address other common ways personal information spreads or is used online, helping you reduce exposure more broadly.

All Automations are organized into simple Automation Packs that you can run in just a few taps.

When you start an Automation:

You may be asked to:

Once completed, the automation continues and finishes the process.

Automations use the information stored in your Cloaked profile, such as your name, address, email, and phone number, to complete requests accurately.

New Automations are added over time as additional privacy protections become available.

Cloaked’s Data Removal service continuously scans hundreds of data broker sites and submits removal requests where your personal information appears.

Automations focus on additional privacy actions that fall outside traditional broker removal, including:

Together, Data Removal and Automations provide broader protection across the different ways personal information spreads online.

Automations are organized into Packs, which group related privacy protections together.

Each Pack targets a specific category of privacy risk so you can secure different parts of your digital life more efficiently.

The Essentials Pack focuses on some of the most common and urgent sources of personal data exposure.

These Automations submit opt-out or removal requests to major privacy registries and high-risk data brokers.

This Pack helps reduce identity theft risks by removing your information from credit marketing and financial targeting databases.

This Pack helps reduce corporate tracking and consumer profiling by removing your data from large commercial aggregation networks.

This Pack reduces political outreach and fundraising messages by removing your information from campaign targeting systems.

This Pack strengthens your account security by updating passwords across common online services.

These Automations require you to log in to each account during the process.

New passwords generated during these Automations are securely created and saved to your Cloaked identities, where you can access them later.

Cloaked will open an automated browser and begin completing each Automation in the Pack.

A live status screen shows the progress of each task:

When all Automations in the Pack finish, the Pack disappears from the carousel and completed items are saved to your History.

Most Automations complete within a few minutes.

However, some requests depend on external services and may take additional time to fully process after submission.

For example, data broker removals or marketing opt-outs may take several days before the provider fully removes your information.

Every completed Automation is saved to your History section.

From here you can:

For data broker Automations, Cloaked may continue checking periodically to ensure your removal request is honored and your data does not reappear.

Some Automations can be run again if needed.

Data broker removals

Yes. Data brokers may re-list individuals over time, so re-running these Automations can help keep your information removed.

One-time registrations

No. Registrations such as the FTC Do Not Call registry only need to be completed once.

Password resets

Yes. Security Automations can be run again whenever you want to update your credentials.

If an Automation fails, you will see options to:

Completed Automations are still saved to your History even if the rest of the Pack did not finish.

You can return later and run any remaining Automations.

Automations may stop if the Cloaked app is closed or backgrounded while running.

If this happens, you will see a notification when you return to the app and can retry the Automation.

Automations use the profile details stored in your Cloaked account, including:

You can review exactly what was submitted by opening the Automation in your History.

If the information used during an Automation is incorrect, open the Automation detail screen and select:

“Are these profile details incorrect?”

This will allow you to contact Cloaked Support and correct the information.
