> 1798.99.80. (c) “Data broker” means a business that knowingly collects and sells to third parties the personal information of a consumer with whom the business does not have a direct relationship. [1]
If you want to be both obtuse and pedantic about it, the answer is yes to all three.
They define data broker as someone who collects and sells your data. Companies like Facebook and Google do not sell data they collect, contrary to what a lot of people assume.
The page refers to 500 data brokers, but I’d like to find the complete list they use.
