What's the provenance of this information?

Where's the opt-out, both for individuals with individual phone numbers, and for businesses who own large blocks of numbers?

We get all the information from public sources: Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Yelp, Google Places, AngelList, etc.

You can always mail us to [email protected] for any privacy concern. We would remove any phone number upon request.

Do you plan to be able to input 3rd party private information? I would like to import my 3rd party phone numbers database and related information, being only accessible for my API account. This could lead to interesting integrations with sales databases.

Yes! This is in the horizon of the product and it would be more likely to be the following step after we get out of beta.
