Since we launched StayPrivate.org in June we’ve been receiving lots of comments, questions and requests for help from users of the service. As we’ve noticed trends in these messages, we’ve been making changes to the site such as adding in extra descriptions and help text to make it easier to use. We’ve also [...]
Since our post on Friday last week, we’ve been busy working on clearing the queue of submissions and implementing some of the feedback we’ve received. We’re pleased to say that we’ve now reduced the queues to a more manageable level and are submitting everyone within 2 hours of signing up.

Thank everyone who has signed up to StayPrivate.org over the last 36 hours or so. We’ve had massive interest in the website – much more than we expected. I’d also like to thank everyone who has sent us comments, suggestions and questions. We haven’t managed to reply to all of them yet, [...]

Our work on the Stay Private project has continued amongst our other duties. We now [...]
We like data at CF Labs – indeed we’d be nothing without lots of lovely data to build our apps around. So it’s logical that we’re committed to opening up and sharing data that we feel is in the public interest but is withheld unnecessarily or unfairly – think raw, infinitely useful data idling on [...]
Work has begin on our next project – StayPrivate.org. The aim of the project is to make it easier to opt out of receiving unwanted marketing communications from organisations registered with the Direct Marketing Association.
