Why removing yourself from Kochava matters
On Kochava, anyone can look you up — often for just a few dollars — and pull mobile advertising IDs and associated app/location signals used for attribution and audience targeting. That is more than enough to target you with spam and phishing, fuel robocalls, or in the worst cases enable stalking, doxxing or identity theft. Removing your Kochava listing cuts off one of the easiest public sources of that data about you.
Opting out of Kochava is fairly straightforward, with one extra verification step — it works via web form (device ID) + email, and removals usually process in 10 minutes per device. It is free: under U.S. privacy laws Kochava has to honor opt-out requests, so never pay a "removal" fee. Have your details ready for the verification step, then re-check in a few weeks to make sure the listing stayed down.
How to opt out of Kochava, step by step
Open the Kochava opt-out / do-not-sell request page.
Find your device's mobile advertising ID (MAID) in your phone's ad settings.
Submit the web form with each MAID you want blacklisted.
Repeat for every device you own, since requests are per-device.
To delete personal data, email privacy@kochava.com or call 855-562-4282.
Link verified June 2026 — brokers change their forms, so confirm it’s the official kochava.com opt-out before entering anything.
Watch out: Submitting a deletion request can hand Kochava identifying details it intentionally avoided collecting, so prefer the MAID blacklist form when possible.

Why do I need my advertising ID?
Kochava keys data to device MAIDs rather than names, so it needs the MAID to find and block your data.
Does one opt-out cover all my devices?
No. The opt-out is device-specific; submit each device's MAID separately.
