The Codex of Commercial Surveillance
The intelligence engine behind every DeepDelete™.
The commercial surveillance industry is vast, hidden, and constantly evolving. Thousands of organizations. Not simply “data brokers” in the legal sense. A vast array of businesses are tracking, trading, and monetizing personal information every day.
The Codex is ObscureIQ’s proprietary map of that ecosystem:
8,600+ Entities Tracked
That's massively larger than any similar dataset we know of.
Comprehensive Coverage
Covering 10 major categories and hundreds of specialized tags.
Research-Driven
Built from over five years of in-depth research into company operations, data collection, and sharing methods.
Continuously Updated
Regularly identifying new players, new data types, and new threat vectors.
Why The Codex Matters for Your Privacy
When we delete your data, we don’t just target the usual suspects. The Codex allows us to:
- Identify hidden and unregistered data brokers that most services never touch.
- Map interconnected networks where one broker feeds dozens of others.
- Flag location data brokers and other high-risk categories that are often ignored.
- Prioritize deletion based on risk grading. From ethical violations to how easily bad actors can access the data.
This is how we can remove data from up to 1,000 brokers for a single client — double or triple the reach of standard deletion services.

Integrated Into Every DeepDelete™
Audit the Footprint
Using the Codex, we trace your information across public records, breach data, people search sites, location trackers, and obscure data streams.
Identify All “Selectors”
Emails, phone numbers, usernames, addresses, even gamertags. Every data point that could be used to find or re-link you.
Target with Precision
Codex intelligence tells us exactly which brokers to hit, how they share data, and where we can disrupt their pipelines.
Example: In one audit, Codex tracking revealed a cluster of interconnected sites sharing addresses and phone numbers. Sites a standard delete service would never have known existed.
Beyond Broker Deletion
Public and Court Records
Removing data from official records and filings that can impact privacy and reputation.
Search Engines & Reputation Content
Suppressing negative content and managing search results for better digital presence.
Malware Logs, AI Data & Dark Web
Targeting hidden and obscure data sources including malware logs, AI chatbot leaks, and dark web sites.
Don’t Let Data Brokers Control Your Identity
The Codex Advantage
Most privacy services have a list. We have an atlas.
The Codex is not just a database. It’s the intelligence backbone that lets ObscureIQ execute the most thorough, high-value deletions in the industry.
