Scary…

A U.S. citizen has his or her privacy protected through legislation such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), the Financial Privacy Rule of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and the National Do Not Call Registry.

However, it appears the telephone numbers of people you call or who call you are not protected. They should be. I can’t believe this company has a right to do this or how they get the info. As I said in the headline, it’s scary.
