The article contains a link where you can request a copy of your profile data from LexusNexus.\u00a0 Steve requested his to see what it contains. If you want to request your own report, check out these links:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Request your LexisNexis report:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/consumer.risk.lexisnexis.com\/consumer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/consumer.risk.lexisnexis.com\/consumer<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Request your Verisk report:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/fcra.verisk.com\/#\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/fcra.verisk.com\/#\/<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check what data your car collects on you:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/vehicleprivacyreport.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/vehicleprivacyreport.com\/<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The article also suggests that you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Check your connected car app, if you use one, to see if you are enrolled in one of these programs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do an online search for \u201cprivacy request form\u201d alongside the name of your vehicle\u2019s manufacturer.
