What is Outlogic (formerly X-Mode Social)?

Outlogic (formerly X-Mode Social) is a location-data broker. It collects precise geolocation tied to MAIDs through its SDK in third-party apps, through its own apps, and through purchases from other brokers, then licenses location datasets and audience segments in bulk to advertisers, analytics firms, and government contractors. Unlike consumer people-search sites, Outlogic (formerly X-Mode Social) does not offer a public profile lookup, but it still holds and sells your personal data.

What data Outlogic (formerly X-Mode Social) has on you

Outlogic (formerly X-Mode Social) collects consumer data in bulk for advertisers and data resellers. You cannot look yourself up, but here is what they typically hold:

• location/geolocation data (precise GPS/lat-long)
• mobile advertising IDs (MAIDs)
• Installation IDs
• device identifiers
• WiFi/cell-tower data
• movement patterns
• audience segments

Not every profile contains all categories. Depth depends on what public records exist in your jurisdiction and how much commercial data has been linked to your identity. For most adults with any public record history, Outlogic (formerly X-Mode Social) has enough to paint a detailed picture.

How to opt out of Outlogic (formerly X-Mode Social): step by step

1. Locate your Device ID (Advertising ID): iOS via app privacy settings; Android via settings; or request it from the app publisher's support
2. Go to outlogic.io/opt-out-form/ and submit an opt-out and/or deletion request with your Device ID
3. Optionally provide an email so Outlogic can report on your request
4. Or email privacy@outlogic.io or call +1 (866) 346-9602 for deletion
5. Reset/zero out your advertising ID: iOS turn off App Tracking; Android delete advertising ID

How long does Outlogic (formerly X-Mode Social) removal take?

Outlogic (formerly X-Mode Social) does not specify a removal timeline; opt-out and deletion are handled per Device ID. Many sites take 7 to 45 days.

The catch: your data comes back

The most important thing to understand about Outlogic (formerly X-Mode Social) removal: it is temporary.

Opt-out and deletion are keyed to your Device ID. Resetting the ID or using a new device requires re-opt-out. Legacy data already licensed persists; the FTC order requires Outlogic to delete or destroy previously collected location data unless consent or deidentification applies. This data is built from third-party SDK integrations, which makes removal harder.

This is not unique to Outlogic (formerly X-Mode Social). Every data broker works this way. Your opt-out removes one listing. It does not stop the data pipeline. The only way to stay off is to repeat the process every few months yourself, or use a service that detects re-listings and re-submits automatically.

What Outlogic (formerly X-Mode Social)'s opt-out does not cover

• Other brokers are not affected. Removing yourself from Outlogic (formerly X-Mode Social) does nothing to X-Mode Social (former name), Drunk Mode app, Walk Against Humanity app, or the dozens of other sites where your data is exposed. Each requires its own opt-out.
• Cached copies may persist. Google and other search engines may cache your Outlogic (formerly X-Mode Social) profile for days or weeks after it is removed. Use Google's content removal tool to request de-indexing.
• Multiple profiles may exist. If you have lived in multiple states, changed your name, or have multiple phone numbers, Outlogic (formerly X-Mode Social) may have built separate profiles for each variation. Search and opt out of each.

Tips for a successful opt-out

Use a dedicated email. Use an alias or a separate account for removal requests. Keeps your primary inbox out of Outlogic (formerly X-Mode Social)'s system and keeps confirmation emails organized.

Search every angle. Do not just search by name. Try phone number and email too. You may have more than one listing.

Document the request. Screenshot the confirmation page and save the confirmation email. Useful if you ever need to prove you requested removal.
